Build up, how do I rid myself of this?
Dread Maintenance
Right on!
Yes. I do them separately as two different solutions. I also added a little lavender oil and they smell delicious.
I changed the bs mixture up a bit and added some acv. I need to keep playing with the amounts slightly (as all of you awesome folks said). Overall I think I'm heading in the right direction.
Thanks!!!
Also, since adding the acv they seem to be falling into each of their own spots very well.
Washing in just a bit with suggested new mixes. I will update soon. Thank you all for the help!!
Interesting, I hadn't thought about the hard water being a factor.I may need to tinker with my ratios of bs.
What exactly would you use for an ACV rinse. Anything special?
Thank the universe for this site, otherwise i would be clueless!
My dreads are not too old. Maybe a month or just over. I love them, love everything about them...almost. I'm not gettingdandruff however I am getting (what I consider thick) build up on my scalp. I have been using baking soda and rosemary solution to wash. I suppose it could be in the technique I use to wash. What is the best technique? I also tried very little bronners soap mixed with water and the issue remains. How do you get your scalp clean and fresh?
This may be tmi, but may help to describe as well. So here it is...
When I scratch my scalp theundercarriage of my finger nails fill up with this residue. I am really not enjoying this.Help if you can please. All feedback is greatlyappreciated. Thank you!
Cool! Have been doing the palm roll seems to be effective.
Errr, I did, however, start at the back base. Perhaps I'll switch to the top, work my way down, and meet somewhere in the middle.
As of right now i have three complete. I would say they are fairly thin but not too thin. I sadly have very thin curly hair so the sectioning is by far the most difficult when alone.
What methods have you heard are best for washing/maintaining?
Hi there.
So I'm two days into my twist & "rip" method. Seems to be going quite well. I think the hardest part will be placement of each upon my head. Any feedback whatsoever would be cool,after allI am only two days in. :p
-thanks
