buildup on my scalp (not from product use)
Dreads Hair and Scalp Health
So I have been using a baking soda rinse to wash my hair. i'm pretty active and i work out at least a few times a week. each time i get sweaty i make sure to get my hair dry after, but after it dries i notice when i scratch my head all this white gunk is under my fingernails. i understand it is probably dead skin cells but its pretty gross and i want to have a clean head. how can i keep this away without washing my hair too often?
thanks

Crazy bumps and curls
Dread Maintenance
So I am on week 5 of having dreads. I used the twist & rip method with low maintenance. I have long fine blonde hair. It looked great at first but then the roots came really loose and some of the ends. I know that is normal but now I am noticing quite a few "Snags" bumps and curls forming in the knottier parts. Should I be doing something to maintain these or should I just leave them? Is it a sign that my dreads are coming undone? My hair is a crazy mess every morning and its difficult to sort through and pull them apart at times to look presentable. Any advice is appreciated!!
