i just used the deep cleanse for the first time!

my locks are all kinds of fuzzy and tight!!!

only a little bit of brownish water came out... and most of that was the color from the lemon juice. my dreads have been kept clean! i would have expected more grossness for 16 months.... but yay!

 

man I did that once and the water was so nasty...lol...god damn I love dreads

 

i love dreads too. how long have you had yours stalk?

 

17 months. You?

 

16 months. i started mine on july 28th.

 

Guess it was just time...

 

i guess so! i really can't imagine my head without dreads on it, haha!

 

One thing I don't like is having short hair because of how exposed I feel...
the hair blocks peoples' eyes, sometimes I don't like feeling them.

 

Tomorrow will be 9 months for me. I have yet to do a deep cleanse. I dunno, my hair seems clean but there is definitely minor build up on my scalp over time that the bronners doesn't get. Although the next time I wash I think I am going to use baking soda and follow it with a sea salt and lemon juice treatment. Last months they were so tight at the scalp with very few loose hairs. But I have about an inch of new growth since last month which I swear is growing faster than normal right now. But all the new hair has yet to lock up and there is a fuzz halo around my head. I don't do anything except twist and rip, and play with it so I am helping a change in routine will address this. If not, no big deal it's just hair.

But on a side note, I love dreads too. You and your dreads are gorgeous nakedtreehugger, as you must already know.

 

my water is always brown lol and i do the deep clean every couple months
its very satisfying seeing all the dirt that isnt in my hair anymore.

 

Congrats
They always feel so tight after washes with it
Glad you liked it!

Mine are still young but I use the deep cleanse once a week and so hopefully ill never experience the dark brown water nastiness..

 

lol, i think some of the brown nastiness has to come from those who smoke/are around those who smoke a lot. i've caught whiffs of smoke from my dreads up to a week after being in a smoky place. GROSS!!!

 

the water is never brown when I deep clean... and I always get a little disappointed about that. lol.

Still leaves em squeaky clean though

 

now i'm gonna have to try it!
sounds wonderful!
