Answers:
LOL..WHY DID ROB ZOMBIE HAIR SMELL? BOB MARLEY HAD A COUPLE OF DIFERRENT SPECIES OF LICE IN HIS DREADS AFTER ALL THOSE YEARS.Sorry for the caps. You can pretty much spray or rinse your hair but you can't actually wash it with any shampoo, otherwise that will take out all the oil it needs to stay in place. And of course you cannnot brush it, that will loosen the dreads shape and make your hair to constantyl look all stringy.

Other Answers:
ofcourse you can wash your hair, if you dont wash it i'll be sick and nasty, the only thing is that you shouldnt brush

No you can not brush your dreadlocks, but you can wash them, but you can't scrub your scalp like you would with regular hair. I think dreadlocks look stupid and dirty all the time. Don't see why people even bother getting them!!

If you are caucasion and want to get dreadlocks you must not like being white. If you are black and wish to get dreadlocks then you should ask one of your own. Why don't you just get a dreadlocks wig? Then you don't have to worry.

you can wash it, but washing it is not going to get the job done quite as well.it is difficult to wash hair that is all stuck together.no, you cannot brush it either.

well i wouln`t its a mess and in fairness it looks awful too

Yes, you do wash. Just be sure to give extra time under the shower to make sure all the soap gets out of the braids at your scalp. I don't know if I would try to condition or not, considering the way the braids are. You wouldn't get much of the stuff to the hairs in the middle and it might make it look greasy. As for brushing, how would you do that? The bristles would just get caught in the braids and tear your hair to &#@%.

I don't care how hard or how many times you wash it, dreadlocks look dirty and disgusting.

Dreadlocks are AWEFUL for your hair.. you may wash it.. but it's still dries your hair out and it extremely damages your hair.. and theres really no way to take them out. you have to cut them.. so you could end up with a buzz cut..

You can wash them and you can also scrub your scalp when you take a shower. It may loosen up but you can tighten it back.

I dont know why people think dreadlocks can not be managed. I guess there are people who dont take care of them. However, if you do, it looks good.

you wash them (and should wash them!) but not in the same way as you normaly wash your hair, you will need a shampoo that doesnt leave residue and you wont use contditioner

and no obviously you can't brush them

if you're thinking about dreads but you arent sure try synth-dreads, they can be removed without having to shave your head like real dreads
