About Sam
I’m the Owner and Senior Loctician behind Salty Dreads Australia, with years of hands-on experience specializing exclusively in dreadlocks. I work with clients across installation, maintenance, extensions, repairs and long-term dreadlock care, and I also provide one-on-one education for people who want to build confidence with their own hair or develop professional loctician skills.
I’ve taught everything from basic self-maintenance through to mentoring other women as they establish and grow successful dreadlock businesses of their own. I care about teaching the “why” behind each technique, not just demonstrating steps, so students leave with practical understanding they can apply independently.
I enjoy helping people develop real confidence in their skills, whether they are learning for themselves or building toward professional work.

As the Owner/Founder of Salty Dreads Australia, I teach practical, hands-on dreadlock skills based on years of professional salon experience and real-world client work. My lessons are tailored to exactly what you want to learn, whether that is maintaining your own dreadlocks confidently, improving your technique as a working loctician, learning installation and maintenance methods, troubleshooting difficult cases, or building the skills and systems needed to start your own dreadlock business.
I already provide education and mentoring, from helping clients care for their own hair through to supporting other women as they develop successful dreadlock businesses of their own. I teach clearly, practically and without unnecessary fluff, with a strong focus on technique, problem-solving and understanding why a method works.
Lessons are suitable for complete beginners, existing locticians and salon professionals wanting specialist dreadlock training. Sessions can be tailored to your goals and are typically 60–90 minutes.

Sammie taught me dreadlocks when I was first learning and honestly gave me the confidence to take it seriously. She explains things in a really practical way and makes sure you actually understand what you’re doing instead of just copying steps, which I really appreciated after trying to navigate online courses with minimal help from teachers.
I now run my own loc studio and a lot of what I learned from her helped me get to that point. She was generous with her knowledge, patient, and genuinely wanted me to do well. I’d absolutely recommend her to anyone wanting to learn dreadlocks properly.See more recommendations

Details
My rates reflect the specialist nature of the training and the level of one-on-one attention provided. I run a busy dreadlock studio with appointments often booked well in advance, and I also teach across multiple platforms, so my availability for private mentoring is limited.
These sessions are designed for people who want to learn properly, improve faster, and avoid the trial-and-error that can come with teaching yourself. You’re not just paying for an hour of my time — you’re accessing years of professional experience, real salon knowledge, troubleshooting skills, and business insight built through working exclusively with dreadlocks.
If you’re serious about upskilling, building confidence, or developing professional-level dreadlock skills, this is the level of training I offer.
