thanks for these washing videos. but i disagree about having lots of build-up in the core if they are stiffer/hang heavier. those with very thick, kinky hair are going to have stiffer locs if they are locked tight and mature. this doesnt necessarily mean they are dirty at the core. i think its different for people with straighter hair.
This is not really a professional opinion, but I have had dreads for a few years and they are completely self-maintained.
It depends on how fast your hair locs, but basically only until they have formed enough so that they wont come apart if you washed them. So, and I'm estimating here, maybe like a few weeks to a month or so...good luck, i remember how hard it was not washing my hair at first.
every time i get my hair washed the locs come apart! maybe it's my hair type. or is that just what happens anyway? will i ever be able to just wash my hair without getting it re-done immediately?
did you recently start your locs? if so, in a few more months after they have locked up a but more you wont have to maintain them, or at least not as much.
naw it's been almost 2 years now...i just have real fine hair...i still have a few places in the front that haven't completely loc'd up. when i tried washing them the new growth poofs out and it looks horrible!
can u people ever post good comments, im such a hypocrite, but she might be ful african american, if not then again she could be mixed with any thing, why wont one of u people ask her in a polite way instead of putting her down.
"TIFFDJONES" is a sorry sight, an embarrasment to all us decent mixed race folk for starters "MULLATTO" = the sterile off spring of a mule and donkey the term was used in slavery days by slave owners to discribe "HIS" children born through the rape of a slave he would then rape the children so his grandchildren were also his daddy she looks and speaks so false there is just somethink about her that is so wrong did you know in USA mixed girls only date 7% mixed race guys they dont accept us.

how do you keep your hair from getting frizzy? Seems like a really soft texture.

I just got my dreads done and i was wondering.how can i remove the funny smell for the first couple of months without washing?
smokeyJAP 3 years ago
Unfortunately you can't remove the smell without washing it. You can cover the smell with fragrance through oil-sprays and cologne, etc.

@smokeyJAP Someone has to put this but ppl who have dreads wash their hair. Not washing your hair for 2 months is disgusting....

Why doesn't she wash her hair in the shower? Is it better to wash in the sink?
arihinnant 3 years ago

I think having to have your hair maintained immediatly after shampooing is a permamnent thing
