DREADSCHOOL
Brought to you by VALHALLA HAIR
“The evolved DREADSCHOOL space was created with one intention: to build a community rooted in kindness, connection, and shared love for the art of dreadcraft.
Here, we celebrate the learners, the makers, the teachers, and the dreamers. We cheer each other on, offer support when it's needed, and create friendships that go far beyond hair.
It’s never about being “the best.” It’s about being genuine. About showing up with heart, learning with humility, and sharing what we know with others who walk the same path.
Whether you’re just starting your journey or years into your dreadlock career—you belong here.
Collaboration over competition, always.
To our students, graduates, and global fam: thank you for being the soul of this movement.
We're about building a future where the love and support within our Dreadlock Artist Collective lead the way.
Let's keep weaving magic together!”
With light & love, Sharna

Our Mission
DREADSCHOOL exists to uphold and elevate the professional standard of dreadlock care, education, and artistry within Australia’s unregulated industry. Through grounded teaching, industry-recognised certification, and a collaborative community, we ensure that every loctician learns not only the “how,”
but also the intention, respect, and responsibility woven into the craft.
A Place of Learning, Connection & Growth
DREADSCHOOL is more than a platform, it is a living circle of artists, educators, and seekers.
Here, knowledge is shared openly, creativity is celebrated, and the sacred craft of locking hair is continuously evolving.
Friendships form, skills deepen, and every voice strengthens the collective.
“Together, we rise. Together, we weave our futures.”
Whether you’re an experienced loctician or stepping onto this path for the first time, you’ll find wisdom gathered from many hands,
many teachers, and many years.
This is a place to learn, grow, and step fully into your craft.
