About Us

Hello, my name is Marie, and I’m the owner, designer, and maker behind Kawaii Adornments. I run my small, independent business from my studio in London, where I specialise in intricately curving precious metals to create unique hair adornments for dreadlocks, braids, and especially the smallest loc sizes—Microlocs and Sisterlocks®.

Since 2009, I’ve been designing lightweight, gemstone-based wraps and loc jewellery that combine precision, durability, and elegance. My pieces are made to fit very thin locs without adding bulk, and are worn by customers around the world who value clarity in design and comfort in wear.

The inspiration for my work comes from me having Sisterlocks®—the smallest and cutest locs ever. My love of all things cute and delicately made led to the name Kawaii Adornments—with Kawaii meaning “cute” in Japanese.

Every item is handmade in small batches using natural gemstones and precious metals, packaged with care, and designed to be both functional and refined. I love what I do—and I believe you’ll love what you buy.
