Just add water

well I test on my body before I test on my dreads. I also have a boyfriend who has volunteered himself as a guinea pig

 

Good luck with making your own soap, are you actually going to make small test batches in your kitchen? That is pretty neat. I wanted to try it myself but don't have the time or the room to do it now.

I still wash with shampoo but now I can go about 5 days because I feel like I need to wash. I still can not get over that natural hair smell on my scalp so shampoo for me please.

 

yep, I just moved into a new place that I love and I'm ready to get creative.

I have been washing/rinsing my hair every day because I have been swimming every day...

btw there is STILL sand in my dreads from the beach lullz

 

back in atx?

 

i commend you for your choice of wordsiggy:iggy:iggy:

 

yehyeeeh madafaka. mopac and enfield a mile from the greenbelt :cheers2:

 

i wish i was a mile from the greenbelt. im in the middle of little mexico here.

 

where are you again? up at 183?
I saw a vet or kennel hiring up north on craigs and thought it would be funny if I accidentally got a job at the same place as you.

 

I washed with water today because I didn't have any soap and zomg my dreads are fine.

 

where 183 and 35 meet... im getting out of the vet office biz and im going to try to focus more on training/general care rather than medical. i hate working in a vet's office-such a sterile environment

 

If you wash with just water, after a while your hair will start it smell bad..

well at least mine did

 

i washed mine with just water yesterday and my mom said my hair smelt sweaty, but i think it was just the damp smell, cause i let them air dry and they hadnt fully dried.

i havent noticed any funky smells yet, but my headcheese doesnt seem to be movin =[

 

I wash with baking soda/ lemon juice ever 2 weeks (give or take) for over the past year, even before I started dreading my hair(or letting it dread- or what ever you choose to call this mess ).
I rinse with just water almost daily though.
My hair smells nice.

 

smelly, did you try a deep clean? it seriously dissolves that shit when i do it.

 

SL, I know you only use water so how often do you do a deep clean? Does your scalp produce excess oil after you have done a deep clean? I have been washing with water for about 6 months, and feel it may be time. But I seriously only rinse it like every other week. I would do it more often but I hate wet hair.

 

i wash mine twice a week at most, and ive been using just water for 7/8 weeks. reckon its time for a deep clean then? ive been gardening today, theres prolly some bugs/leaf/earth up there..

 

i deep clean about four times a year or so.

 

Does much crap seem to come out of your hair when you do that?

 

whats the concoction again?

 

teatree and water is what i use....maybe once a month ill put some baking soda in there amd let it sit a little longer than usual....works great for me!
