About

Hi! My name is Kathleen and I live and work in the green nord of Antwerpen, in my studio Forest Roots.
I also work on some nice free spirit festivals.
I am an official Affiliate from Seienstyle .
This guarantees you that I have been well trained and that I'm certified as a Professional Dreadlocks Stylist. I was trained by Ann-Marie Christell who is world famous for her beautifull and high quality work.
I love making Dreadlocks because they are so much more then a hair style! They really changes deeply the way people feel about themselves and I feel honored to be part of this personal transformation.
And it is so nice to meet all these amazing and often very like minded people. ❤

I combine the Forest Roots Dreadlocks Service with my webshop In The Woods.
There you will find Organic, Eco and Fair Traded products for a sustainable and conscious lifestyle.
And of course there are also non toxic caring products and accessoires for Dreadlocks.
Further on you'll find all natural incense, crystals, macrame jewelry and selfmade dread beads.
I'm currently installing a new arts / crafts atelier so that I will be able to create
more dreadlocks accent sets, hairwraps, jewelry, beads and so on for you..
At this moment I'm in a professional training for handmade and hand dyed Wool Dreadlocks.
I am also specialising in All Natural Hair Colouring with plant dyes.
Besides that I'm developping some Henna tattoo skills and learning some jewelry crafts.
I've used to work as a social worker for nine years with people with all kinds of psychologic difficulties.
I've been doing artistic photography and analogue photo printing and eleven years of modelling.
Then I've had my own organic food, health supplement and natural cosmetics store during eight years.
I was an aspiring glass artist, and some day I'll continue with a focus on stained glass and sculptures.
For now my personal focus is on learning Permaculture while step by step building our own Food Forest at home. I'm also following a course to become a licensed Herbalist so I can grow and prepare my own herbs and make my own plant dyes. When I have time to write, you'll find that story at my blog Project 9 .

My Dreadlocks Studio is located in the green nord of Antwerp, Belgium, only 100 meters from the forests.
It is the easiest to reach by car or taxi, but it is also accessible by train (Station Noorderkempen) and busses followed by a 15 till 20 minutes walk. And ofcourse by bicycle. If you need to come from far, there are so many nice opportunities to stay overnight in one of the many airbnb's, hostels or hotels in Antwerpen and around. That way you can combine your trip to Forest Roots with a visit to the city!
If you like camping, we can arrange a spot in our garden for 10 euro per person per night.
We are also working on an Air bnb place to offer. More about that later... .

We have a lovely daughter. She is 10,5 years old. When she's at home, chance is big that you'll meet her!

We've recently welcomed a nice new soul at our place.
He is a White Shepherd and he just had his first birthday.
He is very social to humans and has a nice loving energy.
He might come in and out of the studio to say Hi to you and me while we are working.
If you are allergic, or you just don't like dogs, please tell me in advance so I can arrange a lovely dogsitter. Please don't bring your own dog with you, as he is still getting used to them and it's his home here.
