Dreadlocks or not, it’s a normal thing to experience residue in your hair. This comes from the use of shampoo that contains oils and silicone that will stay in your dreadlocks and therefore you’ll need a detox that can help dissolve the residue and make the hair clean again. Exactly because of residue is it super important to use a shampoo that is specially made for dreadlocks.
Have you already used a traditional shampoo, or would you just like to deep cleanse your dreadlocks or your hair, then you can use a our DETOX MY DREADS.
It doesn’t matter how often you clean your dreads or how well you take care of them. Every dreadhead needs a thorough detox at least once a year just for the buildup-busting benefits alone. When you detox your locs, you dissolve and remove every trace of product buildup, including buildup from:
Products (shampoo, conditioner, gel, wax, etc.)
