Sea salt water sprays.

I've heard a few people mentioning this, how does it work?

Would it help my new 'dreads' form and tighten? Is it simply a case of spraying salted water onto your heads? (Silly questions, I know....)

 

yers thats it exactly but no not just salted water, table salt contains iodine
you want either sea salt or kosher salt
or a dip in the ocean works too
you dont wannas use it all the time or leave it on too much thoughj or it can buildup and iritate the scalp
u can do a rince...or u can spray it on then some while later rinde out
some leave it on dayus but could be theyre scalps less sensative
it should do what it does in a matter of an hour or 2 then rince it
your welcome to experiment yourdself tho and find what works best

just put a tablespoon or 2 in a spray bottle add water shake n spray
what ui definately dont want is to add more salt then is solulable in the water
it doesnt have to be alot
some add lil lemion juice too but that can act like peroxide and bleach the hair when exposed to sun or heat

 

you have damaged/bleached hair dont you? i dont think youll need the sea salt spray. does your hair already feel dry?

 

Yeah, my hair's really dry. Is drying out your hair what the seasalt water does?

 

sea water won't help your hair unless you were swimming in it. spraying a bit of salt in your hair won't do shit. it's a waste of time.

 

Sorry dude I'm going to call :icon_bs: on that one. Sure swimming in the sea's better, but if I use a sea salt spray I can notice the difference definitely. For example I did a salt spray just a day ago and I can notice around the roots I have far more hair that's congoing and dreading.

As to the point as to whether I need to do it. No, of course I don't after so many years. I only do it if I feel like it, but if one is new to dreading then I would definitely recommend it, I think it helps. That's just my opinion though.

 

natural philosophy is just trying to get under you skin.

 

pretty sure they know that, the title of the thread is SEA salt water sprays

 

oooooooooooeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeow!

 

i seriously spend too much time in RT, i've turned in to a cyber-jackarse

 

are you people really that concerned with how good yer hair is 'lockin up tite dood' that you need to spray salt water in your hair? come on you vain people i thought this was hippie forums lol

come on people locks form naturally. no need to get silly and overthink the process.

 

suuuurrreee dood keep telling yourself that if it makes you feel like you have 'dreads'


here, have a beer and quit fussin with your hair :cheers2:

 

how is spraying salt water in your hair "fussing"

seems pretty simple to me. and there's something refreshing about it

 

its called the natural method, not the do-nothing-this-is-the-no-assistance-method. better stay out of any weather conditions that may make your hair lock friendly.

to tell a human being to stop trying to control something is like telling a dog to stop fetching a ball. we are too worrisome, it is in our nature to want to get our hands on things and try to improve them. sea salt definitely isnt hindering anything.

 

TRUE! when you feel like your being silly, your prolly being silly! just relaxxxx, thats the point of dreads! right on natural philosophy, you speak some kind truths for once!

 

hahahha zilla your funny today ^-^ I cannot imagine myslef going down to the seaside with a lil spray bottle,filling it up and going home,spraying the contents on my barnet^-^hahahaha,that IS fussing,BUT IGNORE what I say as I've had few glasses of vino and am acting silly.that thought just made me smile.like a chesire kitty

 

fer shizzle.

and yay for vino

 

riiight? and don't rip your dreads, either. let them matt into a giant ass fucking festering lice fest

to me, it is natural to want my hair to fucking rock.

 

hehe you are too cute! but i just get baleine salt at the store, i use it on my piercings too so i don't even go out of my way. just mix it with some water and dump it on my head if i were in the ocean i would frolick around and embrace the saltiness around me. anyway. having a glass of wine with you would be fun
