Welcome to Dread Master Salon & Education, a space built on resilience, empowerment, and the art of professional loc care. Founded and operated by Hatayvia Carter, a proud single mother of three and a courageous survivor of domestic violence, Dread Master represents more than just a salon—it’s a movement of transformation, healing, and financial independence.

Located in Warner Robins, GA, Hatayvia has dedicated her life to not only mastering the beauty and science of locs but also teaching others how to build successful, profitable careers through her educational programs. From hands-on salon services to professional-level training for aspiring locticians, Dread Master empowers individuals to embrace their craft and turn their passion into purpose.

Here, we believe in second chances, new beginnings, and creating generational wealth through skill and education. When you support Dread Master, you’re supporting a story of survival, strength, and success—and becoming part of a community that uplifts and inspires.

Join us on this journey. Master the art. Build the business. Live the freedom you deserve.
