I can't tell you definitively how often to wash your hair, because it's different for everybody. However, I personally wash about 3 times per week. My scalp feels itchy if I don't wash at least twice a week, but that's just me. Maybe you can experiment with washing more often, and see if that helps. Also, if you're using heavy / too many products, that may be the cause of the dandruff. Not really sure, I'm just guessing on some stuff that has helped with myself and my husband (who also has locks). Another possible option is to use dandruff shampoo.aybee77https://www.blogger.com/profile/05922008983265845016noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12127807.post-54113403558249521762008-11-03T18:53:00.000-05:002008-11-03T18:53:00.000-05:00thnx i have a question is it normal to have little...thnx i have a question is it normal to have little white dandruff stuff stuck between ur dreads because i really dont want that and how many times per week do i actually have to wash my hair i do it once a weekUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03331462296970494657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12127807.post-19464688783859967912008-10-28T20:14:00.000-04:002008-10-28T20:14:00.000-04:00Thanks, melissa_ellen.

Sometimes I wonder if this blog is helpful to anyone.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, yes, freeforming is something lots of people haven't seen and don't understand. How come people that have never locked their hair try to tell you what's wrong about yours? And also, if you tell them that you can't tell them exactly how it's going to turn out, then it's like you went crazy.<BR/><BR/>At any rate, keep going strong. I know you can do it, and you'll be satisfied with the outcome.aybee77https://www.blogger.com/profile/05922008983265845016noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12127807.post-24484614806736095882008-10-28T19:15:00.000-04:002008-10-28T19:15:00.000-04:00hey ive been reading your blog and agree with allm...hey ive been reading your blog and agree with allmost everything you said its like i wrote it myself...but any way im doing dreadlocks the freeform way too and people keep telling me that im doing it all wrong and that i must wash it once a month and that by a month my hair should have been dreaded up allready... i think that if it wasent for reading ur blog i would have probably listend to them...but there are many ways to from dreadlocks and i think that freeform is the best wayUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03331462296970494657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12127807.post-62456962438935702182008-07-02T16:08:00.000-04:002008-07-02T16:08:00.000-04:00@ fromqDon't even talk to me until I see updated p...@ fromq<BR/><BR/>Don't even talk to me until I see updated pics of your hair.

Good lu...@ lumina star<BR/><BR/>Thanks for visiting my blog. Good luck with locking. Don't be anxious. It may seem to take forever, but your hair will lock eventually.<BR/><BR/>@ tam<BR/><BR/>Thanks. :-) lol @ my hair playing catch up. I was doing some major virtual-pouting early on, comparing my hair to yours, but now I'm happy with how my hair's developing. I enjoy looking at your hair and following your progress as well. Why am I already imagining a year? :-)aybee77https://www.blogger.com/profile/05922008983265845016noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12127807.post-54705548448944765532008-06-30T23:48:00.000-04:002008-06-30T23:48:00.000-04:00Angela not long ago our hair didn't look similar. ...Angela not long ago our hair didn't look similar. Now look at it. You can tell we started around the same time. Amazing. Either your hair played catch up or mines slowed down but it looks like we are neck to neck in the forming of them. As always, I love your updates, your posts about your experience and your continued support and encouragement in mine as well. Your hair just looks remarkable and I can't wait til the next update. I say that every month because I really mean it :-)TamCMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03274858151280947011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12127807.post-14574052407606556442008-06-30T23:19:00.000-04:002008-06-30T23:19:00.000-04:00Good for you Angela.

Then I tried locking various way, many different times and always took them out. Now I very short coils, that I started after my second BC. I'm approaching only one month and I already feel anxious because no locking seems to be happening. The blog really is great. I get out my lock feeling daily, and it has, and will keep me going. Soon they'll be a time where I won't be writing nearly as much, and realize my coils have turned into locks while I was preoccupied. Good luck and congrats.A.N.
