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

By Ann-Marie Christell, Seienstyle

Like learning an instrument

Learning to make dreadlocks is a lot like learning to play music. You can read about it, watch videos and understand the theory. But the real skill lives in your hands, and it only gets there through practice, again and again, until the movements become your own.

My name is Ann-Marie Christell, and I have been a professional loctician for over 26 years. The learning is never a straight line. You improve, then you stumble, then you come back stronger. And then one day the aha moments start to arrive, and you begin to grow quickly.

If you live in Tennessee and feel drawn to this craft, I would love to help you build that skill in your own hands.

Why Tennessee

Tennessee is a state built on music, craft and creativity. From Nashville and Memphis to Knoxville, Chattanooga and the Smoky Mountains, it is home to people who understand what it means to practise something until it becomes part of you.

There are people across Tennessee who have been dreaming of their dreadlocks for years. They deserve a loctician whose hands truly know the work.

Practice with a teacher beside you

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

Just like a music teacher can hear what you cannot yet hear yourself, I can see the small things in your technique that you would not notice on your own. I correct them in the moment, before they become habits. Before we meet, you choose the services you want to focus on, from dreadlocks on natural hair and extensions to maintenance, mermaid dreadlocks, synthetic dreadlocks and more.

The Seienstyle process

The method you practise is inclusive across every hair texture, completely product-free, and gentle on your hands and your client's scalp. Dreadlocks begin to mature within two to three months.

We also talk about protecting your body through long days, being present with clients, and building a practice you love.

Keep practising, with support

Before our two days, we meet on a one-on-one video call, so you arrive having already practised the foundations. Afterwards, you continue with coaching calls, join the Seienstyle community and keep lifetime access to The Professional Loctician Online Course, so you can keep refining your skills for years.

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

It may be, if you are ready to practise, love working with your hands, and want a teacher who can help you grow faster and more surely.
