Start your dread journey with us

The only impossible journey

is the one you don't begin.

- Tony Robbins

I want people to feel welcome and loved as soon as they sit in my chair. To feel the vibe, the energy, and connect with each and every single human. Our paths in life are all about the connections we make with each other and I want to embrace each and everyone of you who chose to come to me with your treasured locs.

Erika Ryon

I’ve been creating and assisting with people’s dreadlock journeys for MANY moons and I cannot wait to be a part of yours. I started my own journey 8 years ago and never looked back. It was a day of universal intervention that sprouted the phrase: “You are PURE fucking GOLD!”

If you are here, our paths have aligned and it’s divine timing my friend. Come on in, share space and energy with us…EVERYONE is welcome!!

I started my loc journey years ago with braid-in synthetics. After months of re-installing them, I knew it was time to take the plunge. Once I did, I looked in the mirror and knew, “This is ME”.

Gold-E herself started my loc journey, and now our journey has grown to something beyond beautiful. I found myself within this journey, my confidence, my path, these connections, community, light, and now I want to be a part of that journey of yours.

GoldE and her lovely assistant Des made the space very welcoming, safe and therapeutic! I referred my partner to go see her for a few maintenances, but I was following her page for 6-8 months before I referred him! Now we will be lifelong customers, she is amazing at what she does! The color match to my extensions was absolutely stunning, it’s totally okay that it took some time, 100% worth it! Her space is filled with plants, gorgeous unique handmade art, and the latés they kept me stocked up on were *chefs kiss.* I had an amazing time watching the transformation come to life, laughing and getting to know you ladies. Cant wait to be able to decorate! I am so so in love with my hair!

Erika is an extraordinarily talented and wonderful human being that is shining light very and light while building her incredible empire! I am so grateful for her knowledge and dedication to her craft - I could not have been happier with my dreads! This transformation isn’t JUST about hair - it’s much deeper than that 🙏 more of a rite of passage 🫶

I can not express enough with how much I love this place and how happy I am with my hair. I've been growing my hair for 13 years and was so hesitant on going through with locking my hair up. I did not trust anyone and was scared of not liking it and being forced to cut it all off and starting over. She booked me a free consultation and explained her process in detail. Explained how and why she using no product and how she'd get it to lock up naturally...I couldn't be happier and everyone i know compliments and loves my hair. Thank you so much for everything you have done.

Came in for maintenance this morning, they exceeded my expectations. I even added some single ended dreads for more dimension and volume. Her shop is so relaxing and the vibe is amazing. 1000 percent recommend!

I got a full head of dreads with extensions from the amazing Erika this year!! I started with a half of a head in March and graduated to the full head in august! I am obsessed! I have wanted dreads for about 13 years now but I was always so worried about getting them done wrong and not liking them, well when I saw Erika’s work I just knew I had found the right place. I could not be happier. I love how she has the colors fade and the thickness! She listened to exactly what I wanted. I have had my hair any way you can imagine and this is the FIRST time I have ever felt exactly like myself!

After becoming dissatisfied with my old Loctologist..my sister found GoldElocks on Google. I was skeptical about her dreadlocks service because I never heard of her. We gave her a chance and made an appointment with her. I'm TOTALLY satisfied..hands down!She, surprisingly went above and beyond with her services and SAVED MY DAMAGED HAIR.. I was TOTALLY BLOWN BACK and floored with her awesome work! She made me look AND feel beautiful 😍
