deep cleaning on four year old locks

the sink before. you can see the ingredients dissolve to a translucent pale
yellow.


during. joe soaked for about 30 minutes in total, & i took photos at regular
intervals. be aware his dreads were a very faded green & blue to begin with.

already showing dirt:


very dirty:



at the end:

little to no dye was stripped from his dreads. this is all filth:



this picture shows the old shampoo, old wax, and other grease loosened by the
deep cleaning. after this was taken, i sent him to the shower to continue
rinsing and squeezing until this stopped happening.


the sink after:


we have a second deep clean planned in a week to make sure ALL of that old
grossness is out. he's already saying how much better his dreads feel, &
they definitely look nicer. click here to return to the finished pics.
