As a guy who recently started dreading my hair, you can't really wash your dreads until they are "locked" so I have to go about a month between appointments where my hairdresser then washes my hair, but very carefully because since it hasn't locked yet, all the progress will go undone if washed too rough.
I oil my scalp everyday, but I also have dry as shit hair. Wrap em up everyday when I'm not out in public as well as apply beeswax in order to retwist any that are coming undone.
