    ha:stocking! I don't believe in washing them through a stocking, how did you do em?and you spray the seasalt on the whole head to tighten up the locks.leave the scalp though as it can dry it out a lil.but swimming in the sea is a lot better!and more fun:)

    I would advise not wearing a stocking if your doing the salt wash:)
    Otherwise it won't benefit your locks to the full extent:(

    do whatever you feel is right...just don't over do it. one sea salt soak wont noticeably hinder or help your baby dreads.

    Mine are two weeks old and I don't wash with a stocking on my head. I don't seem to have a problem with them loosening, one at the front pretty much fell out the first time I washed, but that was kinda expected. Give it a try, I just rub my scalp through the knots at the top and kind of squeeze the dreaded hair..
