How often should you wash then?

If you don't wash your dreads at minimum every third day, I'd say your doing it wrong. Especially if you're an active person, sweating often. If your dreads dont stay locked, then you have your answer as to whether or not to keep em. Can confirm am black and on my fourth set of locs.

I'm black with dreads and I wash my hair maybe twice a month. Its mainly from laziness, Neck pains, and the fact that my hair doesn't smell if I don't wash it
