First new dreads wash with bs/acv - not good at all.

If you use the ACV rinse, you should not have dry hair. But I guess some conditions can still cause it, like skiing. Jojoba is best to use if needed. But remember, when starting out, you want knots to form, these cause dreads to form, so don't over condition or you may cause any knotting process to slip out.

Add essential oils into your baking soda wash, that will help you.

peace

My new book Ban The Taboo Vol 1

Whell, i wrote bad, or you didn't understand..i wanted to ask, if i should put aloe after washing my hairs, let em drying for 10h+ and then use aloe, or i can use right after i wash my hear (on wet hairs).

Also, i didn't understand what you mean by saying "knots form dreads, so don't over condition" google translator is totaly useless in some cases, so i didn't understood what you mean :/

Your sections will knot up, which means they will tangle. This tangling will increase, turning that section into a dread. Over conditioning the hair can cause any tangling to slip out of the sections which will set back your dreading progress. Hope this explains it better

Sorry, I have never used aloe, so I can't help with that question.

Sleeping with wet sections causes mold to set in. They will also start to smell. You do not want mold in your hair. You will find that once your dreads are mature, they take sooo long to dry, so it is best to wash them at the beginning of your day.

thanks you, also, if i understand right, conditionig means rubbing and do another thing to my hair and scalp while i wash them? em i right?

Again thanks all for answers, you help me soooo much!

P.S. Its near 1 week of my new dreads, after wash i washed them they are more soft but messy, and you know..i like that mess, because i even can feel how they becoming natural dreads (:

I have translated the following for you to understand, I hope it comes out properly.

Kondicionierius yra paprastai produktas, kuris minktina plaukus.Js nenorite naudoti bet kur i i, tai bus padaryti js plaukai ilkiniai.Jei turite obuoli sidro actas, jis yra saugus naudoti, kad kaip galutinio skalavimo.Tiesiog naudokite 1-2 capfuls sumaiyti su vandeniu ir palikti tik 1 minut.

Jei plauti su soda, js neturite veitimas.Miinys 0,24 l 1,18 l vandens, sumaiyti su soda.Upilkite ant galvos ir palikti 10-20 minui, netrinkite.Obuoli sidro actas yra naudojamas kitas, palikti j tik 1 minut ir gerai iskalaukite.

Hope this came out right. Peace

Hi there, your ratio was off. Try using 1/2 baking soda to 5 cups of water, rinse well after 10-20 minutes, then use 1-2 capfuls only of apple cider vinegar with 5 cups water , leave on for only 1 minute and rinse. Rinse off everything well, then finish off with a cold rinse to the head, as cold as you can take. Your ratio was off, so it did not completely exfoliate the scalp. Try this and let us know how it goes.

Peace
