Dreadlocks Naturally - Organic Dread Care

Lock Up Fast dreadlock shampoo is the best product to tighten your dreadlocks. It accelerates the maturing process and tightens your locs with every wash. Using Lock Up Fast dreadlock shampoo is far more effective than any type of tightening spray for tightening your dreads. Our SmoovV dreadlock gel can also assist in tightening your locs.

We have 3 different types of shampoo formula's which have different benefits depending on your dread stage or hair type. Lock Up Fast is recommended if you have new dreads or oily/silky hair type, this formula is also incredibly good if you are wishing to start freeform dreads. Naturally Knot is recommended if you have mature dreads or a dry hair type. Colour Care is recommended if you dye your dreadlocks and want to preserve the colour or if you have damaged hair.

We generally only recommend conditioning once your dreadlocks are mature, if you need to, and using dread safe products to do so. Our Dread Juice Moisture Mist and Dread Nectar Oil Elixir are 2 great products for this. Our SmoovV dreadlock gel is good for adding a bit of moisture to new dreadlocks.

We recommend doing a deep cleansing soak 2-3 times a year once your dreadlocks are mature. Mature dreadlocks can become quite dense and dirt can sometimes get trapped inside. Soaking your dreadlocks releases trapped dirt and removes any build up. If you work in an environment where you get a lot of dust in your dreadlocks then you may wish to detox your dreads more frequently.

Even though most natural shampoo's may be free of silicones and other nasty ingredients they usually still contain quite a few conditioning agents designed to make hair soft, silky and tangle free which may hinder the locking process for some hair types. Our dreadlock shampoo's are residue free and do not contain conditioning ingredients, they are designed to only clean the hair and leave nothing behind. Dreadlocks Naturally shampoo's are formulated to assist the maintenance of dreadlocks and helps to lock up your hair.

Our products are safe to use with synthetic dreadlocks. If you have a temporary braid in style then we recommend our Synthetic Braid In Dread Care Combo Pack.

We don't sell tightening spray as we don't believe it's that effective or needed if you are using a good quality dreadlock shampoo. Our number 1 tightening product is our Lock Up Fast dreadlock shampoo - the name says it all - it'll get your dreads tight and tidy in no time!

Our Dread Juice Moisture Mist which is a leave-on moisturising spray that is easily absorbed into the scalp without leaving greasy residue. If your scalp is extremely dry and you need something more intense then we recommend our Dread Nectar Oil Elixir which is used as a pre-shampoo treatment.
