    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

    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.

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

    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 :eek: ).
    I rinse with just water almost daily though.
    My hair smells nice. :p

    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.

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