Jordan is amazing! She is very knowledgeable and I was able to ask all my questions and then some. My appointment felt like it went by faster than it really was. We ran into an unexpecting snag but she was able to come up with a solution on the spot that I think worked even better than I envisioned. I am in love with my new locs and so glad I went to someone that did it professionally rather than the alternate routes I had thought over for months.

Thank you, Ashley! We're thrilled you're loving your new look and had a professional experience with us!

My experience with Jordan was wonderful. Prior to our appointment she communicated well and answered any questions I had. She asked a lot of questions to get to know what I was expecting from my appointment and to ensure I was receiving the service expected. 10 out of 10 recommend Jordan and Dreadlock Central for your loc services 💜

Owner's reply
Thank you, Amanda! We're so happy you had such a great experience with Jordan. Your feedback means a lot, and we’re glad you love your locs!

I was somewhat hesitant about going to a stranger home salon. However, once I overcame the novelty of the place, the experience was truly amazing. Jordan is awesome, hands down. She’s very friendly, conversational and skilled at crocheting my locs. To be honest I didn’t feel much pain doing the process. I have no hesitation recommending Jordan as a very skilled hair artist and good place to get your locs done.

Thank you, Frank! We're glad you trusted Jordan and had an amazing experience. Your feedback means a lot, and we're happy your locs turned out great!

I was in need of some much-needed maintenance along with adding some new locs. The entire appointment making process was smooth, communication was great, and the appointment was great with Jordan. She was professional as well as enjoyable to spend time with as she worked. I look forward to seeing her again for more routine appointments.

I had an awesome experience with Jordan! She communicated everything I needed to know about my appointment via texts that were very detailed and so easy to read, plus she promptly responded to my questions and kept in touch about the appointment specifics. The actual appointment went flawless! She went out of her way to make sure I was comfortable and she's so caring and easy to talk to. My appointment was several hours long and the time literally flew by! She was also spot on with the quote she gave me from just looking at the pics I sent. I will definitely be seeing her for all my dreadlock needs!

Need a Loctician who is an expert in their craft and won’t let you down? Look no further than Dreadlock Central. I had an extremely positive experience with licensed Loctician Jordan. She was friendly, knowledgeable, and a great listener. Best of all, she was a deft problem-solver and educator. You can tell she really cares about the health of your hair and your satisfaction with your hair. She also encourages her clients to learn how to properly continue taking care of their own hair long after they’ve left the studio. That is what makes her service so personalized and invaluable. Highly recommend (5/5 ⭐️) .

Owner's reply
Thank you for sharing your great feedback about your experience with Jordan! She's a great addition to our team and we're glad you had such a good experience with her!

On 12/7, I meet Jordan who took the time and got this girl right. She did an amazing job repairing my locs and was very patient and comforting. She made me feel at home while she did what she does best. I will recommend anyone to her. If you’re in the Frederick Md/Hagerstown area. look up Jordan .

Thank you, Sherray! We're thrilled to hear that Jordan made you feel at home and did an amazing job with your locs. Your recommendation means the world to us, and we look forward to welcoming you back!

Jordan did an absolutely fantastic job fixing my dreadlocks! I had been to a salon to have them put in about seven weeks prior, and not only did they use a (very painful and damaging) interlock method, the dreads were incredibly messy, frizzy, and growing together. Jordan got them separated, crocheted, and looking spectacular! I was initially nervous they couldn’t be fixed, but what she did went beyond my expectations! Whether you’re just looking for some maintenance, or have a full-blown challenge like I did, I totally recommend Jordan for all your dreadlock needs…

Happy to hear Jordan fixed you up right! Thanks for your feedback!

By far the most unprofessional people I have ever interacted with. They make mistakes on their end, but blame someone else. It's a shame zero or negative stars isn't a review option.

Owner's reply
Yes, we made a mistake on our end that we were working on correcting, and we never once blamed you for that mistake. However, you became hostile towards my team and I will not tolerate that from anyone which is the reason we declined you.

I’ve had my dreads for almost 14 years. They were in desperate need of some TLC. I am a senior manager in a Fortune 500 company, and having dreads is definitely not typical. My messy, ugly dreads affected my confidence and influenced how others perceived me. I was embarrassed by how I looked, and it greatly impacted how I felt about myself. Jordan, Colby, and Tara worked together to bring my dreads back to life. They were kind, considerate, and made me feel welcome. I was ashamed of how I’d let my hair go. They were so professional and understanding, and made sure I was comfortable and at ease. My hair looks and feels absolutely amazing. I literally can’t express how much it meant to me for them to take a complete disaster and make it beautiful again and for treating me with respect and kindness. They made it fun and relaxing. I am a lifelong customer. I can’t recommend them enough!

Owner's reply
Thank you, Thunder, for sharing your wonderful experience! We're thrilled that Jordan, Colby, and Tara helped rejuvenate your locs and boost your confidence. It's fantastic to hear that you felt comfortable and respected. Look forward to seeing you again! 😊

Jordan with dreadlock central is BY FAR the best person to ever crochet my hair. I've traveled far and wide for no product, dreadlock crochet people and they're hard to find. Salons all use product to make it stay. Everytime I've ever had my hair done, my fine hair wisps come out pretty quickly and hers did not! My wisps are still neatly tucked into the dreads which is really hard to do! She's amazing and an awesome soul as well 💖

Thank you, Sadie! We’re so glad you’re happy with Jordan’s work and that your locs are holding beautifully—your feedback means the world!

I recently got instant lock dreadlocks from Jordan, using the crochet method, and the experience was fantastic. The entire process took about five hours, and Jordan was incredibly skilled and efficient. She was personable and pleasant, making for some great conversations throughout the appointment. I also had the chance to meet her husband, who was equally friendly. My dreads turned out great, and I can easily see myself booking another appointment. Highly recommended!

I’ve had three tacticians over the last three years, provide service for me. I could not be happier with the results, the professionalism, and the expertise behind each individual. Most recently I was assisted by Jordan, who could not do a better job of leaving an excellent first impression. I cannot recommend Dreadlock Central enough and hope to rely on them for years to come.

Jordan did an amazing job on my dreadlocks! I was going to a different hair studio and was not liking the results and was getting frustrated due to my straight hair. Dreadlock central introduced me to Jordan and she did a wonderful job on my type of hair and made me love my dreadlocks again. I highly recommend Jordan as well as the team at dreadlock central.

Had some issues with my locs (due to lots of frayed hair and “bubbles” in the loc) and needed maintenance done. Checked out the services provided by Dreadlock Central and decided to give them a try. Best decision I could have made. Jordan was excellent, fixed the issues with my locs and its the best they’ve ever looked. She has a new customer in me. Definitely going back.

* Our Company Wide Terms of Booking

💵 Down Payment

– A non-refundable down payment is required for every single appointment. No exceptions.

– Most down payments start at $50 but may range much higher depending on the amount of time we have to reserve for your appointment.

– This amount contributes toward your total bill and is not an extra expense.

– Appointments are NOT confirmed until down payment is received.

– Down payments are required a minimum of 3 days before your appointment.

We do not book “same day appointments” – therefore appointments must be set in advance. If you contact us with the expectation of a same day or last minute booking we will likely decline your request and book you for a later date.

– If you are more than 20 minutes late, your appointment may need to be rescheduled out of respect for the next client and the person who booked you.

– In some cases we can accommodate late appointments, but it should not be expected.

– In the event of a reschedule you will forfeit the down payment for that appointment, and a new down payment will be required to book your next appointment.

If you miss your appointment twice, or are excessively late twice, we reserve the right to increase your down payment requirements or outright refuse booking future appointments with you.

This is a personalized service and we’re more than happy to develop friendly relationships with our clients, but this is also our livelihood and a professional business. Therefore we expect you to respect our policies just as you would with any professional service.

For those who repeatedly cause issues—whether it’s late arrivals, no-shows, last-minute cancellations, inappropriate behavior, or general disrespect—we reserve the right to refuse future service. Respect goes both ways.
