Positive Testimonials from Our Happy Clients



Here are a few of the Positive Testimonials from Our Happy Clients:




My wife and I experience with Ten Nebula was memorable. Ten is knowledgeable of her craft. My wife and I found her to be punctual, patient, kind, timely, and gentle. Ten has been more thorough than any other hair stylists that we've encountered and pricing fair. You will be amazed by her work, if your a skeptic it will be laid to rest.






-----------------------------------
Ten's energy, easy going nature made it extremely comfortable to invite here to our house. She was delicate and quick and the result I wanted was achieved. All the products she used were excellent and I will be definitely using her from here on out. 


John C. -  San Francisco Bay Area, CA




------------------------------------
Ten Nebula's work is FANTASTIC! I am ecstatic to have finally found someone in the Bay Area who is seriously so gifted and so passionate about their work with loc'ed hair. My head feels amazing, and I have been infused with new confidence to tackle all the day's work. Thank you, Ten! :)



Carlos F.  San Francisco Bay Area, CA




-------------------------------------
Ten Nebula (healer & spiritualist), spent the afternoon educating and twisting great energy into my new locs-- light & love is her mantra -- she is amazing. My hair has never felt this wonderfully cared for.





------------------------------------------
Ten Nebula did a wonderful job renewing my locs. I recommend her to anyone who likes fast, reliable and good service! I am just starting my locs and have a lot to learn but I feel that I am in good hands with Lovin My Locs Hair Services!






----------------------------
Thank God! We have someone in portland who understands locs/dreads. Ten was so kind, understanding and easy to talk to. I didn't feel judged or put down because I needed some help. She is extremely pleasant and knowledgeable. She came to my house, where I felt most comfortable especially when my hairs a mess and I don't want to be sitting in front of a window with all kinds of people looking at me. She is the best person and the best experience I've had having my locs done and I've been wearing my hair in locs/dreads for over 10 years!



Edna A. - Portland, OR




---------------------------------
Absolutely wonderful job putting in my dreadlocks. I have wanted to rock this hairstyle for a long time and thanks to Ten Nebula I can sport my dread head with pride. I highly recommend using this service.



Heidi R. - Damascus, OR




------------------------------
My dreads were kind of messy and in need of some loving care. Ten Nebula neatened and tightened my locks and they've been feeling and looking much cuter. She was warm, friendly, and professional. She is also knowledgeable on how to care for dreads. I definitely recommend giving her a call if your locks need a little work.



Heather y. - Vancouver, WA




-------------------------------
Ten was great. We had a very fun time working on my hair. I have a head full of dreadlocks (about 100 I think) and they were in dire need of being tidied up. I made sure my hair was washed and dried well before she arrived. They've looked great and I've enjoyed them since her visit.

I highly recommend Ten. She knows what she's doing with your locks.

when i was in high school, I started going natural
I like my natural hair

When I decided to lock my hair,
I was ready for more calm in my life
My locs are a beautiful thing in my life
they teach me patience, self-love, and self-care

I like taking care of them
I like having them look great
My dreadlocks have a spiritual purpose in my life

A History on DreadLocks






Dreadlocks, also called "locs" or "locks" or "ras" "or "dreads", are matted coils of hair. Dreadlocks are usually intentionally formed; because of the variety of different hair textures, various methods are used to encourage the formation of locks such as backcombing sections of the hair, twisting or a process involving the weaving of the hair with a crochet hook to form knots.

Dreadlocks are associated most closely with the Rastafari movement, but people from many groups in history before them have worn dreadlocks, including the Hindu Shiva worshippers of India and the Sufis Rafaees , the Maasai of East Africa, and the Sufis malangs and fakirs of Pakistan. Dreadlocks can represent a spiritual journey that is not just related to the Rastafari movement.

The first known examples of dreadlocks date back to North Africa. In ancient dynastic Egypt examples of Egyptians wearing locked hairstyles and wigs have appeared on bas-reliefs, statuary and other artifacts.[3] Mummified remains of ancient Egyptians with locks, as well as locked wigs, have also been recovered from archaeological sites.[4]

The Hindu deity Shiva and his followers were described in the scriptures as wearing "jaTaa", meaning "twisted locks of hair", probably derived from the Dravidian word "caTai", which means to twist or to wrap. The Greeks, the Pacific Ocean peoples, the Naga people and several ascetic groups within various major religions have at times worn their hair in locks, including the monks of the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church, the Nazirites of Judaism, Qalandari Sufi's the Sadhus of Hinduism, and the Dervishes of Islam among others. The very earliest Christians also may have worn this hairstyle. Particularly noteworthy are descriptions of James the Just, first Bishop of Jerusalem, who wore them to his ankles.

Pre-Columbian Aztec priests were described in Aztec codices (including the Durán Codex, the Codex Tudela and the Codex Mendoza) as wearing their hair untouched, allowing it to grow long and matted.

In Senegal, the Baye Fall, followers of the Mouride movement, a sect of Islam indigenous to the country which was founded in 1887 by Shaykh Aamadu Bàmba Mbàkke, are famous for growing locks and wearing multi-colored gowns.[7] Cheikh Ibra Fall, founder of the Baye Fall school of the Mouride Brotherhood, claims that he was "the first dread in West Africa".

A person with thick locks.In Jamaica the term dreadlocks was first recorded in the 1950s as a term for the "Young Black Faith", an early sect of the Rastafari which began among the marginalized poor of Jamaica in the 1930s, when they ceased to copy the particular hair style of Haile Selassie I of Ethiopia and began to wear dreadlocks instead.[citation needed] It was said that the wearer lived a "dread" life or a life in which he feared God, which gave birth to the modern name 'dreadlocks' for this ancient style.[citation needed]

Many Rastafari attribute their dreadlocks as a dedication to Haile Selassie I of Ethiopia as well as the three Nazarite vows, in the Book of Numbers, the fourth of the books of the Pentateuch.


Dreadlocks in history has been worn by a variety of people:
(1)Africans
(2)Buddhists
(3)Rastafarians
(4)African-Americans
(5)Priests and Priestesses
(6)Witches and Wizards

Spiritual Ways to Care for Your Locs

Spiritual Ways to Care for Your Locs


1. Make sure to allow your locs to breathe on the daily basis, if you wrap them alot. Let them get lots of sunshine and fresh air.


2. If you feel that your locs have dense lower energy in them or you have alot of lower energy in your crown chakra, then give your locs a sea salt water rinse. This will help you to release negative energy from that area.


3. Aim to keep your locs clean, beautiful, well-groomed, well-maintained, and full of love.

4. Be patient with growing your locs and spread that patience around in the other areas of your life.

 - Remember that you have to be patient & committed to get the locs you desire. they take work and devotion and it will show up in the end

 

What is a Lock?

A lock is a section of hair that has intertwined or matted together and can not easily be combed or picked apart. Locks are made up of tangled unshed hair. You comb your hair to keep tangles out and to remove the hair that sheds.

The average healthy person will lose between 50 - 150 hairs a day. This is normal. When you stop comb your hair those hairs get caught up and tangled and intertwined to form a lock. So it is really time and the shed hair that forms a lock.

How to start Locks

How to Start Locks on Any Kind of Hair


Locking Techniques
-------------------------------
There many ways to lock your hair and you have to choose the method that works best for your hair type and length (i.e. tight curls, coily, wavy, straight, short, long, fine, thick, dry, oily). Check out the section on this site with the youtube videos.





Backcombing
------------------
Backcombing (also known as teasing or ratting) is a way of combing hair which is used to create volume as well as to create certain hairstyles. Backcombing means repeatedly combing the hair towards the scalp, causing the hair to tangle and knot up. This method is often used in creating various big hair styles such as beehives and dreadlocks.


Comb Coils
------------
Comb coils can be started on hair that is coily to kinky. If your hair will form a natural coil you can usually start your locks this way. You are basically using a comb to coax a section of hair to form a curl. This method is great if you have hair that is really short. However, any length of coil hair can be comb coiled.


Single twists
-------------------
Starting locks with single twist is a lot like starting locks with comb coils. The only difference is that you use your fingers instead of a comb to form the lock. If your hair will form a natural coil you can usually start your locks this way. You can start any length of hair with this method.


Palm Rolls
---------------------
Starting locks with palm rolls is a lot like starting locks with comb coils or finger rolls. The only difference is that you use your palms to form the lock. If your hair will form a natural coil you can usually start your locks this way. Your hair should be at least three inches long to start your locks with this method.


Two strand twists/ Double Strand Twists
--------------------------------------------
If you are looking for a way to start your locks that can be handled a little more at the beginning you may want to consider starting your locks with two strand or double strand twists. Locks started with double strand twist are a lot more durable than locks started with coils, finger coils/roll, or palm rolls. This method will work on coily, curly and wavy hair types and hair that is at least two inches long.


Braids
------------------------
Braids are one of the easiest low maintenance ways of starting your locks. It really is as simple as braiding or getting your hair braided.

Locks started with braids can be a wide range of sizes from the size of your finger to the size of a piece of yarn and every diameter in between. This method works on all hair types but is especially good for those who have hair that will not coil or have various types of hair on your head.


Woven/Interlocked/Tool Started Methods
---------------------------------------------
Weaving or interlocking the hair is a sure fire way to start locks (and maintain locks) on any hair type. Even the straightest hair can be locked with this method. The hair is woven from tip to root with your fingers or a tool. When you get to the base you are done.

It is kind of like braiding only backwards. And like braids, locks started by weaving or intertwining the hair are a lot more durable than other methods. You can use this method to start locks of any size. If you want exceptionally small "micro locks" this would be the way to go.


Yarn Braid Extension
----------------------------------
If you want locks and: a.) have a perm and don't want to cut it or b.) think you want them but are not completely sure consider starting your locks with yarn extensions. Yarn braids (a.k.a Nu Locs) are simply extension braids that are braided with acrylic yarn instead of synthetic hair. You really only need an inch or two of hair.
