been using this deep cleanse http://hipforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=136945 and i totaly love how clean it makes my dreads and how great it feels but ive noticed also my dreads are getting extremely soft and fuzzy anyone else use this excluseively sa few months and found this happened to them too?
maybe i use it too often, just nothing makes em feel cleaner ive been makin it without the teatree tho, maybe nexttime i'll add a lil oil
I wash my hair with that, minus the tea tree oil, about once every two weeks or so, and my hair is incredibly soft too. I have a lot of undreaded hair under my dreads that just don't want to dread up. My hair is just naturally soft, no matter what I use to wash it. I tried using dr. bronners for a while before I started using that concoction, and that left my hair incredibly soft too. I use salt water spray sometimes too. My hair is just really really soft, even when I don't wash it. It's ridiculous. I don't know what to do. Sorry I didn't help any.
yes, it cleans good but it untangled a lot of my hair, and made if very "fluffy" like you say. But it cleans very good. If i do it again i wont leave it in for 15 minutes.
i''ve used that before and love it! every time i use it(once twice so far) my hair comes out feeling cleaner than even before i had knots in it =p i know what you mean by "softening up", the same thing happens to me, and i don;t use tea tree oil either. i wouldn;t worry about it man, just stop washing it for a while...it shouldn't be too difficult to wash your hair. =D
i use it once a month, no problems that i know of. my dreads are still young so whispy hair is normal right about now. how often do you deep clean?
been usin it every week for a month ore 2\ now that theyve dried theyre not as whispy and fuzzy but still super soft just got teatree and bronners so think i'll try the mix with teatree next time then alternate with bronnbers i do love the stuff though, feel so clean and all the lil fuzzies between dreads are formin new dreads..just very soft ones..heehee
yeah its probably a little too often, i wash my dreads once a week with tea tree oil soap, or alata soap ( its from Ghana ) then do the deep clean once a month i find that works enough. I always find my dreads a are super tight after the deep clean but really light
I'd say that's far too often, even for someone who goes to festivals a lot (bonfires cause lots of soot in the dreads, dont they lol). I'd have thought maybe ten mins every few months would be enough?
