Also, how often you should wash your dreadlocks depends on the type of dreadlocks you have. Let\u2019s check out both styles and learn how often to wash your type of dreadlocks.<\/p>\n<p><strong>New Dreadlocks<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If you have fresh dreadlocks, I suggest waiting at least a week before washing your hair. After that, wash your dreads only when your scalp gets oily.<\/p>\n<p>You can wash your new dreadlocks weekly or more frequently if you\u2019re dealing with a problematic, itchy scalp. Note that new dreads can become frizzy and messy after every wash at the start, but they will eventually get back to normal.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Mature Dreadlocks<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I suggest washing mature dreadlocks at least once a week for the best results. Also, wear a shower cap on regular shower days to protect them from humidity.<\/p>\n<p>Hair experts suggest rinsing your new or mature dreadlocks with apple cider vinegar or baking soda before shampooing for better results.<\/p>\n<p>I prefer apple cider vinegar because it\u2019s great for loosening up oils, build-up, and debris from the scalp and hair, making shampooing much easier.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-11603 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/ringmyfashion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Shampoo-for-Dreadlocks-Review.jpg\" alt=\"Shampoo for Dreadlocks Review\" width=\"720\" height=\"385\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ringmyfashion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Shampoo-for-Dreadlocks-Review.jpg 720w, https:\/\/ringmyfashion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Shampoo-for-Dreadlocks-Review-300x160.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Best_Shampoo_for_Dreadlocks_Review_8_Best_Shampoos_for_Dreadlocks\"><\/span>Best Shampoo for Dreadlocks Review: 8 Best Shampoos for Dreadlocks<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Many people have dreadlocks because they\u2019re a unique hairstyle, but maintaining it can be challenging, especially for beginners with new dreadlocks.<\/p>\n<p>This unique hairstyle requires patience, nourishment, and regular maintenance.

Always pick natural shampoos that can nourish and hydrate your dreadlocks. Additionally, take into account the following factors.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Individual Needs<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>When buying hair care products, consider your hair\u2019s needs first.

Also, look for shampoos with ingredients that fight dryness and dandruff if you have these issues.<\/p>\n<p>Today, most hair care products come with built-in benefits for a sensitive scalp, so you shouldn\u2019t stress too much about it, but it\u2019s still something you should pay close attention to when choosing the best shampoo for your dreadlocks.<\/p>\n<p>Remember that you can\u2019t have healthy dreadlocks without a healthy scalp.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_Shampoo_Your_Dreads_Properly\"><\/span>How to Shampoo Your Dreads Properly?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Choosing the right shampoo is the first step towards better dreadlocks. The second is learning how to shampoo your new or mature dreadlocks correctly.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s a short but helpful guide for washing your dreads:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Fill up a clean basin with lukewarm water and add some shampoo.<\/li>\n<li>Dampen your dreadlocks thoroughly before dunking them into the basin. You can submerge them in water so that the water can penetrate the hairs.<\/li>\n<li>Dunk your dreads into the basin and massage the product into your scalp and dreadlocks to fight off dirt and product build-up.<\/li>\n<li>Let the shampoo sit for a couple of minutes before rinsing out with lukewarm water.<\/li>\n<li>Dry your dreads completely. Otherwise, they can rot. Therefore, ring out your hair first, then towel dry.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_Maintenance_Tips_for_Dreadlocks\"><\/span>5 Maintenance Tips for Dreadlocks<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Dreadlocks make a unique hairstyle. However, they\u2019re tricky to maintain. A common misconception about dreads is that they don\u2019t require care and maintenance.<\/p>\n<p>In reality, dreads need care like all other hairstyles. So, apply the following maintenance tips if you have new or mature dreads.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Use Sulfate-Free Products<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Cleaning your scalp is as important as lifting grease, product build-up, and excess oil from your dreadlocks.<\/p>\n<p>So, choose a shampoo that takes care of both tasks. Also, ensure the shampoo you use doesn\u2019t leave residue and contains sulfates.<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, wash your dreadlocks once a week if they\u2019re mature. If you have new and fresh dreadlocks, wait at least one week before washing them for the first time.<\/p>\n<p>After that, wash your dreads weekly or whenever your scalp gets oily.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Dry Your Dreadlocks Thoroughly<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Drying your dreadlocks is a vital step of your hair care routine. If you don\u2019t dry your dreads thoroughly, they can rot.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, gently wring out as much water as possible. Then, grab a handful of your dread, and again squeeze out the excess water, starting near the roots and working towards the ends.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, towel dries or wrap your dreads in a microfiber towel. Microfiber towels take in more moisture than regular cotton towels; most importantly, they don\u2019t leave any lint in dreadlocks.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Moisturize Your Dreadlocks and Scalp<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>You must moisturize your dreadlocks with hair oils and moisturizing sprays because they can get dry and break. Moreover, don\u2019t forget about moisturizing your scalp.<\/p>\n<p>As I stated, you can\u2019t have healthy dreads without a healthy and moisturized scalp, so look after your scalp.<\/p>\n<p>Use lightweight oils that won\u2019t clog your pores. Additionally, choose easily absorbed oils that relieve itchiness and boost hair growth without leaving residue.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Don\u2019t Forget About Night Routine.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I highly suggest sleeping on a satin or silk pillowcase or wrapping your dreads in a silk scarf or bonnet.<\/p>\n<p>Cotton pillowcases take in moisture, so if you sleep on one, your dreadlocks will be drained out of their water if you use this type of material.<\/p>\n<p>And as I already stated, brittle hair can break faster, so don\u2019t forget about your night routine and take care of your dreadlocks properly.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Style Your Dreadlocks Properly<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Over time, dreads become longer and heavier, putting more stress on your hair, and your delicate edges can be at risk, wildly, if they\u2019re styled too tightly.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, you must carefully style your dreadlocks.<\/p>\n<p>Avoid different hairstyles that can cause thinning, bald spots, and traction alopecia and consider the tension you\u2019re putting on your hair when styling.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"My_Top_Pick\"><\/span>My Top Pick<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>In a nutshell, dreadlocks look amazing but require as much care and maintenance as any other hairstyle. So, using the right shampoo and conditioner is vital.<\/p>\n<p>Always use hair care products designed for dreadlocks instead of regular ones, as they will take better care of your dreads.<\/p>\n<p>In my experience, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B08TC62158?&amp;linkCode=ll1&amp;tag=bonefrac-20&amp;linkId=4236d4e2699ee1b8b601a9605dce3f7f&amp;language=en_US&amp;ref_=as_li_ss_tl\">the Lion Locs shampoo<\/a> cleans and moisturizes dreadlocks nicely. It\u2019s loaded with hair growth oils that will also soothe your scalp.<\/p>\n<p>The best part? It\u2019s a 2-in-1 product with conditioner properties.<\/p>\n<p>So, look no further than Lion Locs if you\u2019re looking for a lightweight and easy-to-use shampoo and conditioner for dreadlocks.<\/p>\n<p>However, the Neutrogena shampoo is better if you want a simple, effective product. It\u2019s a reasonably priced shampoo for dreadlocks that will remove all the residue and leave your dreads looking amazing.<\/p>\n<p>What\u2019s your favorite shampoo for dreadlocks?
