Cool things for your dreads to lock up

Well, what are some cool things you guys do to help your hair lock up (Or just cool things that are in better favor for your dreads)

Not like, washing it, but I mean like swimming in the ocean, etc. Well?
I'd love to go to the beach and swim, I mean hell, I live in a vacation state. But I'm completely terrified of sharks and other stuff that will bite/eat me if I go into the water.

Also, Is swimming in a pool with chlorine good/bad for newer locks? I wanna go swimming so bad :hat:

 

surf a shit load.

 

Go to the beach/ocean/smoke marijuana.

 

Wear beanies/tams etc all winter long, youl be surprised how much the loose hair knots up n shit

 

I dont think you really need to do anything but sea water is meant to be good.Also when I bleached my dreads the bits that never fell out tightened up majorly!

 

chlorine makes them like sticky and nasty feeling and takes alot of washing out, so I don't swim in pools, with new dreads swimming is going to free some loose hairs faster, but they'll lock back up again later anyway. Sea water makes me smell liek sea weedz, also requires washing to remove seaweedness, I have never experienced salt water 'helping' dreads but thats just me.

 

swimming has never made my hair smell like seaweed

 

i taught my dreads how to play guitar. helps lock em up supa fast

 

Nothing.

 

having sex healps alot too
smoking marijuana
and drinking tequila

 

Wool. Worsted wool felted into your hair can help it lock in those places that are resistant to locking.

 

I wasn't really looking for tips haha, just like some cool shit you can do, that helps your dreads along their way in the process, like, rafting, etc. I want bird migration to post here, but he's probably in india or some place

edit: Yay, red diamond. Nice job np.

 

listen to some jah marley

 

listen 2 dolphins that try to fly like an eagle and fall in the savanah beacause they have no wings

 

you tried

 

haha

 

I don't know if it really helps but it feels it - My final rinse, when washing, I do with cold water. Started after noticing how the hot/cold felted up a wool wrap. Expand n' contract.
