contams and dreads

#544462 - 02/08/02 01:33 AM (22 years, 7 months ago)

my friend has dreads, he was wondering(even though he washes them everyday) if contams are going to be a bigger problem, since you cant effectivley wash "all" the hair, just mainly the outside of it. his dreads are pretty long, so what do you think he outta do? should he sterilize a shower cap to where when working with shrooms, or is not a issue as long as the hands are clean? anyone here have dreads and know anything about this? he just wants his first batch ever to be safe.

Dude goes months on end w/o washing his dreads, and he has a beautiful girlfriend too... :smile:

When he is doing anything shroom related, he puts them up in his rasta cap, takes a shower and leaves them up. No problems.

Every few days, I put Kumba in them. It smells kind of like peppermint. I've only had them for about 18 mos or so, and they're still not quite ready to be able to be washed very often yet. What kind of shampoo do you get for dreads? And where? Maybe I'll pick some up and try it out...

ive heard of people that havent washed their hair for 5 years!!! they must stink bad.
however i've also known people that just use scented inscence oil, and spirnkle it on their heads.

check out this website www.dreadheadhq.com its got the shampoo as well as some other stuff that might help them lock up. my friend is has natural dreads, so washing every day is not only the clean thing to do, but helps them lock up faster, go check out that site, they even have a message board of dread heads, that can probably answer any question ever about dreads.
