OUR TEAM

Our Passion Is Your Dreadlocks We are licensed Natural Hair Care specialists located in the ActiveSpace Building in NW Portland. As a family-owned business, we’ve been creating and maintaining dreadlocks using the Thai Crochet/Instalock method since 2013. With over 30 years of combined experience, we’re passionate about helping you achieve and maintain the look you love. At Brenda’s Knotty Dreads, we believe hair is a vital part of your identity and getting it right matters. We take pride in our attention to detail and commitment to quality. If you’re not happy with your locs, neither are we. Our goal is simple: your complete satisfaction. Whether you’re looking to start your dreadlock journey or just refine the one you are on, we’re here to help every step of the way. Book an appointment and let’s bring your vision to life.
