New Dreadlocks
About a month ago, I soaked my hair in a baking soda/water/lavender essential oil solution for thirty minutes or so because I had buildup in my dreadlocks from poor rinsing. Afterward, however, my dreadlocks became EXTEREMLY tangled and loopy. I am aware that loops and bumps are perfectly normal, and I was starting to get some before the soak, but literally right after I took my hair out and rinsed and dried it, they were crazy loopy. Any thoughts?

I have heard that, though I read it after I had already done it. What would you recommend for a deep clean of dreadlocks? The water was very murkey when I was done, so I would imagine that no matter how well you take care of your dreadlocks, dirt and dust seem to still get caught in them over time.

vicki makes a charcoal shampoo
its not on the site just request a substitution the liquids a small pump bottle
lets put it this way
i have a germaphobe friend to prove my dreads were clean after using i forget which, liquid or bar i sucked and drank the rinse water out of 3/4 way down
it tasted filtered.. like the purest spring water
i don't drink the water here without adding something to make it taste less dirty
but it tasted so good filtered through my dread after using the charcoal
