egg whites and bananas good for dreadlocks?

so i spent the weekend by the pool in palm springs. some dude starting talking about my hair and started giving me advice. According to him the trick is after you backcomb you rub egg whites and/or banana into your hair. then you wait 2 weeks before you wash. if you do that your hair will be knotted permanently. all i have to say is LOL!! I've heard some crazy ideas but never heard that one before.

the dude said he "rocked dreads" for a year back when he was in high school and "egg whites was the way to go because this was before they had wax and stuff"

i thought i'd share this tip with all you guys so i wouldn't be holding out. hahaha

P.S......On Second Thoughts, I Might Just Boil And Fry Them, Much Safer....

 

eggs whites are actually beneficial to dreads

 

I've had a chick ask me of I used egg yoke in my hair. Why of course

 

a friend of mine seemed shocked when i told her that i didn't put honey and talc in my dreads.

 

Honey And Talc.??.....Thats A New One.....



Cheers Glen.

 

Putting anything sugar-based in hair is inviting trouble. Putting eggs in your hair is well-known to give them body, dreads or no dreads.

 

talc is one of those words.

where after you say it once or thrice.. it no longer sounds like word

 

I've been told by people with high mohawks that they use eggs as hairspray or whatever they use has little to no effect.

I hope people use cool water to rinse egg out.

 

some random gu told me he used to use beer and honey in his dreads. can you imagine the smell? eeew.

 

gu=guy. lol

 

Eggs, beer, honey all can be used for your hair. You should always rinse it out but you can use them as conditioners.

 

yea i've heard using egg whites to spike hair and stuff but this was a first for helping hair lock up. I've never heard putting mashed up banana in hair though lol i can't imagine the gross sticky mess the combination would make.

 

Synthetics are the way to go.

 

banana is super good for yer hair makes it soft and shiny.. not what u want fer dreads tho lol
