Amount of times you should wash your dreads and the amount I want to wash them.

Right so the last time I used shampoo to wash my hair was five to six days ago.Ive been spraying my hair with salt water whenever I can get hold of my mothers little spray gun thing (is there an actual name for these?)so like once every other day.No baking soda yet but that will change within the next week now that ive got some money again (Y)Couldnt find any thyme sadly :/and to dry my hair Ive been using a hair dryer. however this I think is the problem which im about to bring up now.My dreads arent forming, Theres no evidence that im aware of that they are even starting to form.What should I bee looking out for with my natural dreads?what evidence appears and when that they are begining to grow at any level?Is it due to the use of the hair dryer?

Right...wellI dont feel stupid at all :PIf thats the case im going to have a look around my mothers herbs and spices :D Paula said:
Thyme is an herb, a spice for food not for teas..but if you put it in boiling water and make a tea out of it, thyme is great for making your scalp produce less oils.

I have always washed my hair in the mornings before i go to college/work/school whatever.So when i get my dreads will I have to give this up for the usual "Wash every 2-3 days" that I usually see? :sI can do it its just.... my hair gets very greasy very quickly and like I hate greasy hair ><so can i wash them ( I water wash at the moment but will be purchasing Baking soda soon) once a day in the mornings?or do i need to start rethinking my hairstyle of choice?
