Hi! I'm Rachel, Dreadlock Artist and Owner of Mad Hatter Locks

Established in 2015, I am a passionate Dreadlock Artist with years of experience creating custom dreadlock extensions for clients all over the world. My journey began in 2013, when I first started experimenting with my own locks. Through countless hours of practice, I perfected my technique and built a reputation that led me to launch my own business.

As my skill set grew, so did my client base. People travelled from across the globe - sometimes flying in from the other side of the world to work with me. While based in Southampton City, I had the privilege of helping many clients transform their hair, creating stunning new dreadlocks and maintaining existing sets.

In 2022, my family made the bold decision to move to the Highlands of Scotland, leaving behind a loyal clientele I had worked with for years. At the time, I thought my Dreadlock journey was coming to an end. But it turns out, it was only the beginning.

My business soared as I began shipping custom dreadlock extensions worldwide. To date, I have sent extensions to over 30 countries and nearly every state in the U.S. I’m incredibly proud of how far I’ve come, and I’m grateful for the opportunity to help people create the hair of their dreams, no matter where they are in the world.

This journey means so much to me, not just as a business, but as a way to leave a lasting, empowering legacy for my daughter, Aayla. My work is about more than just hair - it's about confidence, self-expression, and making a positive impact on the lives of my clients.
