In this youtube video below you can see how to make a sea salt spray for dreadlocks
Sea salt is amazing for dreadloks, it is a proccess accelerator because it makes the hair frizzy and knotty and dry too. Therefore it increases the formation of locks. it is not only perfect for young dreads, but also for lose hair on fully matured dreadlocks.
to make a sea salt spray for dreadlocks:
You will need:
Warm water
Warm only because it takes less time for the salt to dissolve
Sea salt
It is better to use a pure salt with no chemical additives, you only want the salt on your dreadlocks you do not need to have other products that might build in inside your dreads
Spray bottle
the best easy to use way to apply the salt all over your dreads
How to make a sea salt spray:
- Add just enough salt to water, it does not matter how much since eventually you only want the salt, the water will evaporate, but adding too much may just clog your spray tube and that would be annoying.
- stir very well till the salt disolves completely in the water.
That's it! your sea salt spray bottle is ready to use on your dreads.
Where to apply it
- Spray everywhere on your young dreads because the knots are still forming.
- For mature dreadlocks you may just spray on loose hair spots like on the tips or the new growth.
Important:
1- While spraying avoid your eyes and your hair scalp, having much salt on your scalp might be irritating.
2- If you are just starting to use sea salt it is better that you start spraying for short period of time before showering, because you don't know your hair reaction to salt.
3- If your hair is of the dry type avoid sea salt, as it may dry it more and that would damage it.
Notes:
Some people add lemon juice to the sea salt bottle, and that increases the dryness, but be careful if your hair gets easily dry. You may try and see the result yourself before deciding either to use it or not.
Other people add essential oils, but actually essential oils do the opposit effect of salt, it will only reduce the effectiveness of salt.
