Loctician Training in Mississippi: Hands-On Dreadlock Training With the Seienstyle Process

By Ann-Marie Christell, Seienstyle

A trust that deserves skill

The people who come to you for dreadlocks have usually been thinking about it for years. Sometimes decades. They have gone back and forth in their heads a hundred times. Will it look good? Will people treat me differently? Am I allowed to be someone who has this hair?

By the time they sit down in your chair, they have already found the courage to say yes. And they are trusting you, often a stranger, to carry them across that threshold.

My name is Ann-Marie Christell, and I have been a professional loctician for over 26 years. I take that trust very seriously. When someone is let down by a poorly trained loctician, the damage is not only to their hair. It is to the trust they had in their own dream. That is why I care so much about how locticians are trained.

If you live in Mississippi and want to become someone clients can trust completely, I would love to teach you.

Why Mississippi

Mississippi is a state with deep roots, rich music and strong communities, from Jackson and Hattiesburg to Oxford, Tupelo and the Gulf Coast. It is home to people of many backgrounds and every hair texture, many of whom have dreamed of their dreadlocks for a long time.

A loctician who can work skilfully with every texture, and who treats each client's dream with care, has something truly valuable to offer there.

The training

The Professional Loctician In-Person Training is a two-day, one-on-one training. I travel to you, wherever you are in Mississippi, and we work side by side on live hair models.

Before we meet, you choose your focus. The options include dreadlocks on natural hair, dreadlocks with extensions, maintenance, mermaid dreadlocks, synthetic dreadlocks and more. Because it is just the two of us, I guide your hands directly, at your pace and level.

The Seienstyle process

You learn a method that works on every hair texture, from fine, straight hair to tight coils, so you never need to say no to anyone. It uses no products, is gentle on your hands and your client's scalp, and dreadlocks begin to mature within two to three months.

We also talk about being present with your clients, protecting your body, and building a practice that lasts.

Support afterwards

Before our two days together, we meet on a video call. Afterwards, you continue with coaching calls, join the Seienstyle community and keep lifetime access to The Professional Loctician Online Course.

So, is in-person loctician training in Mississippi right for you?

It may be, if you want to honour your clients' trust with real skill, welcome every hair texture, and learn with personal guidance.
