 Understanding The Importance of Deep Cleansing Dreadlokks

Deep cleansing your dreadlocks is not just a luxury, it is a necessity for maintaining healthy hair.  Cleanses are recommened for mature dreadlokks that are over 12 months old. 

Over time, dreadlocks can accumulate residue from hair products, environmental pollutants, and natural oils. This buildup can lead to a variety of issues, including odour, scalp irritation, and  hair breakage.

By deep cleansing your dreadlocks regularly, you are removing these impurities and giving your hair a fresh start. Dreads will feel lighter, look brighter, and feel longer. Cleanses soften and loosen dreadlocks, so maintenance may be needed to tighten up the freshly cleansed dreadlocks.  

The process of deep cleansing your dreadlocks involves  restoring the balance of your scalp’s natural oils. This helps to promote hair growth, reduce frizz, and improve overall hair health.

Regular cleansing also ensures that your dreadlocks maintain their shape and structure, allowing them to look their best.

Detoxifying your dreadlocks is particularly important if you use hair products that contain chemicals or if you live in an area with high pollution levels. By removing these toxins from your hair, you can prevent long-term damage and keep your dreadlokks in optimal condition.

It’s really important to pay attention to the signs that indicate your dreadlocks are in need of a detox. Recognising these signs early on will help you take the necessary steps to restore the health and vitality of your hair.

Here are 3 things you should be on the lookout for.

1. Buildup and Residue

If you notice a sticky or greasy feeling when you touch your dreads, it’s a clear sign that product buildup and residue have accumulated. This buildup can make your hair appear dull and lifeless. You may even notice that you can’t style them in the same way as you used to. They may feel hard and crunchy to touch. 

 2. An Itchy Scalp 

An itchy scalp can be a result of dirt, sweat, or residue trapped within your dreadlocks. If you find yourself constantly scratching your scalp or tapping your head, it’s probably time for a detox.

 3. There’s An Unpleasant Odour

If your dreads emit an unpleasant odour, it’s likely due to trapped bacteria and residue. This odour can be a result of not washing your hair regularly or not properly cleansing your dreads.

The sooner you can recognise these signs the sooner you can address the issue promptly and prevent further damage from taking place.
