i started the natural method of locking a few months ago, note i never brush my hair never liked to but ive always washed with shampoo up until i decided i wanted to take the vow to dread. i have a few questions if anyone can answer, ive only been washing with water once a week, ive noticed that my hair is knotting up but i have terrible dandruff and itch, so i was wondering if someone has a simple cleansing method i can follow because im skeptical about using products from like knotty boy idk if it will mess up my progress and i dont really have dreads it is still more like hair and my hair is kinda long but thin ive been wearing a tam to help my hair knot idk if it helps but it sure feels like it does, i just need some reliable info because im not really stressing im just not very dread savy other than if i dont cut my hair or comb and wash with only water i will get natty dreads, not sure if i should contiune doing this or look for a specific shampoo or do the no poo deep cleanse. pls if someone can help me id be forever grateful:) JAH RASTAFARI!

rinsing isnt washing

id recomend 1 of 2 options

www.dreadlockshampoo.com makes amazing all natural vegan hand made products theres a few more in our shops as well all better then knottyboy but i like dreadlockshampo best (if u have hard water they are the best for sure)

the other "no poo" suggestion is baking soda acv and essential oils

1/2 cup bs to 5 cups water add 1- drops teatree 20-30 rosemary (optional lavender peppermint) pour over head ..wait 10 min then rinse (no scrub needed) (make sure u rinse the bs b4 u use acv) then mix a small ammount of acv ( apple cider vinegar ) like 1-2 capfulls/spoonfulkls in 5 cups water pour on and rinse right away

when mature use same ammount of acv as bs soak 3 min b4 rinsing

excesivly pily hair skip the acv till less oily

sea saly helps em dread

the pink ho=imalean sea salt from dreadlockshampoo will drasticly help em dred
