Glenda offers style inspiration with her own beautiful locs (she even looks awesome with Flexi rods in). She has experienced all our struggles, bugs and ‘website down’ times but we’re happy to say that it’s been a blessing to collaborate with her since day one. And and…she is branded as ‘the best loctician in London’…so you know what to do …

Jeana Dorival
I still remember the day I called Jeana following her application, and I found out she was from Dominica! It was great as we could speak creole (Creole from Guadeloupe and Dominica have many similarities). On top of that, she’s a top-notch loctician based in the Feltham area. Have a look at her portfolio. You’ll love it!

Jennifer Chimboza
The first time I called Jennifer to have a chat with her about how Afrocks works, I wasn’t planning to spend almost 2 hours over the phone with her. But well…I was literally blown away by her large experience, from Zimbabwe to Leeds, and now London. She also told me something that was unlikely to be forgotten: she was a very, very fast stylist. This was confirmed to me by clients, after she had Box Braids done in a couple of hours!

Stevy Cognon
Stevy is the only male stylist on our platform, and to be honest, he was a tad doubtful when I asked him to register on the platform: he wasn’t sure the women clients would trust a man with their hair – especially when booking via the internet.
Doubts have quickly vanished though. He can be summed up in 3 words: cool, suave and talented. Stevy is a gifted stylist with the ability to put clients at ease and one of the most talented loctician (His nickname is the ‘Locksmith’) and natural stylist in London. I definitely think he deserves more credits and bookings. He’s also a very skilled DJ, yes!
