I've had my dreads for about a week now, and I've washed them once, and otherwise when I shower I put a plastic bag over my head to keep them dry. Is this a good idea? Or should I stop being so paranoid about them falling out?
well, it's not a completely bad idea. i usually wear a bag over my head unless i'm washing. it helps dry my hair out to help it knot. i dont see why it would do any harm.
I've had mine a year and i still shower with a pair of tights on my head, hate having damp dreads, pisses me off! I only wash 'em once a month though mind.
Yeah a shower cap (or two!) does it for me! They take SoOOO long to dry so no point in getting them wet if you're not washing them!
i agree with everyone else here. i wash once a week but shower more often than that with a cap on soo they don't get wet
