The stuff in your hair bursh

You guys know how your hair brush gets linty and fuzzy after a while? Well, my question is this - If we aren't brushing our hair, then how do we get all that dust/lint/fuzz out of our hair? I wash my hair every 2-3days but whenever I look at a hair brush and see all that stuff I wonder if it's all getting washed away or not Sometimes I see fuzz at the tips of my dreads (which are still not dreaded fully). Whatcha think?

 

the same way u get wax out of ur hair i would assume.
except a lot easier.

 

Huh? I don't get it.

I know my towels have to leave some lint on my hair, yk?

 

sounds like one of those things that goes away if you just don't think about it. being a guy...i never noticed anything like that. lol.

 

Yeh my sister grabbed a dread and pointed out the fuzz once, since then I've kept a close eye on my locks. I want nappy/knotty locks, not nasty locks, yk?

 

fuzz don't matter, it aint gonna do nout

 

I've got a weird lint tidemark at just below my chin level, it's probably from my coat or something. You have to go looking for it so it's not that noticable. I assume it will incorporate into the dread, which would only really be an issue if I wore bright orange t-'s for 6 months at a time.

 

I havn't seen or touched a hair brush in almost 4 years But last time I remember seein' it it had so much lint an' other random stuff in it it was disgusting. Maybe I should go find it an' post a pic lol

 

I assume the deep clense would prob help get that stuff out

 

I often find feathers in my hair from my pillow and duvet. *sigh* I just pick it out when I see it, but dont et all upset about it!

 

nits and shit I worry about, fluff and feathers are welcome^_^

 

I'm finding in the tips of my dreads a load of black/grey dusty stuff, I'd cut it out and pull out the hairs to see what it is and its just dust. I've got blonde hair so its really easy to see, but I also feel around the tips to find it.

I don't think we'll ever get it out cus it gets trapped in all the hairs and stuff. On the 'I cut' thread I can't remember who it was (sorry!!) but she said she only found dust in her cut-off dread

So I doubt we're ever gonna get it out. Its kinda hard cus both my home and my room at uni AND my uni studio/dept are reeeally dusty xD I'm sure if you take care of the dust it won't be too bad

Next time I find a little clump of dust I'll take a pic of it in my dread and out

 

I'm constantly picking fluff out of my dreads. It really contrasts against my black dreads and it's a major pet peeve of mine. I can't wear my super soft micro fibre housecoat because it leaves so much fluff on the end of my dreads.

 

Dunno, I'd presume all the hairbrush stuff just lives in your dreads. Does it matter?

 

It only matters cause it's kinda creeping me out to think of the hairbrush junk in my dreads. Hopefully my awareness of it will help me keep it to a minimum.

I am a housekeeper and I wear a bandana on my hair when I clean to prevent a lot of dust getting in my hair.

I was going to buy a tam but I feel like that will cause even more lint, no?

 

I assumed that lint came from storing my brush in a purse.

 

Yeh but even if your hair is full of bits of your head 'n' hair 'n' fluff 'n' stuff, it'll all be clean coz you wash it. So chillllllllll

 

That's right! Amy - I love you!

 

Yayz amy did a good thing *goofy laugh*

 

the ends of mine odviosly are on the ground a ton of the time so are realllly bad with lint n fluff n stuff pluss yea got the feathers from a feather oillow too..
