Sea salt sprays

Dread Maintenance

Thank you Taye and SE for the much need help. I have washed it out and will use proper measures in the future. On another note... What are your thoughts on Dr. Bronner's shampoo?

Sea salt sprays

Dread Maintenance

This is just my own experience. I just used my first sea salt and lime juice spray. I mixed 3 table spoons of sea salt to 1 cup of boiling water and the juice from half of a lime. I used a spray bottle with a fine mist and gave my dreads a generous soaking. I then stepped into the Florida sun for some vitamin D and heat as I heard it was also good for the progress of locking up. The results were almost immediate. My dreads seemed to dry out quite fast and hold/form their shape very nicely. I was wondering how long I should let the sea salt and lime juice stay in my hair. Will the lime juice eventually get funky? Is leaving sea salt in my hair for an extended period of time harmful to the hair itself? I wash my hair once a week with Dr. Bronner's and tea tree oil and haven't yet this week because I wanted to try out the sea salt spray. Should I have washed my dreads before using the spray? Anyone with answers or a similar story and how you use or don't use sea salt sprays would be supper helpful.
