Don't touch my cat, she's booby-trapped.

It was, and I put off watching that for ages because of all the hype. Although I hate that they didn't consult with the victims' families for that one.
I'm gutted it wasn't better. Still haven't finished it! Going to try that Florence on you posted. 😊
It's getting nippy again! So let's get some wool dreadlock photos up on here again!
I'm feeling snugglier already! 😇

Settling down to my 1st full w-end 'off' (read:sitting down mostly)since Bloodstock.

I am still working, but have also needed to focus on some of the less pleasant aspects of self work too, hence not posting my usual dreadlock photos.
Don't be afraid of the messy stuff.❤️

So it appears you can have both PTSD AND cPTSD.
I am a lucky bunny. 🙄

These aren't the letters after my name I think people assumed I'd get.

Ooh is it?
Looks like that's going on tonight then!
Inspired by another post, I'm trying to track down a copy of an old favourite comedy horror, "Rubber".
Suggested films in my search included: Deerskin, Killer Sofa, and Slotherhouse.
Naturally I need to see these quality sounding productions too! 🤣

Not a very hairdressery post, but who inspires you?
My brain is craving information on good humans/muses! ❤️

Really having to drag myself through #MonsterTheEdGeinStory.
I see what they've tried to do, but it's terrible!
I'd rather see a documentary then the proper films.
There was a funny tweet earlier about him sounding like Winnie the Pooh though 🤣

I've always been drawn to textured (usually low/with cheeky attitude) male voices, but what are your fave tracks with female vocalists?

1) Skunk Anansie (Skin) - Brazen
2) Hole (Courtney Love) - Violet
3) Powder (Ninette Terhart) - Seat of my Pants

Happy Tuesday! 😇

Lovely little partial head of temp dreads for Cheryl - she loves a blonde mix & she loves a galaxy mix, so we thought- why not have both!❤️

In other news, today is Thea the cat's 6th anniversary with us.
Happy Theaversary, Troublesplodge! 🤍🧡🖤

(She flat out refused to have a decent photo taken, this is the only one without her bum in my face)

This awesome reggae artist and life philosopher came to me in need of a loc rescue, and I think we did a pretty fine job of setting the world (and his hair) to rights, don't you? 😉😇

Aaah. I've sat down for 30 mins total between 9am & 10pm.

Long but satisfying day.
4 clients seen, one hair order posted out, lots of interesting stories & chatter, and a happy cat being petted & adored by all! ❤️

I'm going to try to get back on top of posts again next week. 😇

Took a day off with a couple of friends, bought some cool stuff & carried a dinosaur on a stick around town.

It's VERY rare I go anywhere.
Social anxiety can do one.
Operation make-the-house-look-cool is moving forward!

I'm back with another #dreadrescue! 😇

Charlotte's #dreadlocks & #dreadextensions weren't done properly and had quickly become lumpy & chaotic, so came in for a new start with me, with fresh extensions.
V happy with these! 🤍🩷😇👌
