As long as there are no bugs in them...

my band's bassplayer started growing his hair, which is very curly, when he was like on 7th grade. Then one day he came home, scratched his hair, and a bug flew out of it
needless to say he used short hair for a long time after the trauma

Stinky factor......HOW much did they smell? Especially because i bet they dont get washed much on tour.

Well, it's still early, they're not reeking yet. They're just kind of... oily smelling.

Ick.

I have to wash mine every 2 days or so. Any longer than that and I start to feel all ooky...

i wash mine every single time i take a bath.
And some times i take over 2 baths in one day, so you can't get more hair-washed than me

i wash mine once in a while even though what with the length of it the nasty stuff sometimes gets in my mouth... i havn't washed it since before i saw syl on wednesday (i come off really nasty don't i?)

Well Yanko, if you live somewhere humid, I can totally understand 2+ baths a day. If you don't, I'd say you've got a fetish of some kind.

well, yeah, the 2+ baths a day doesn't happen often.
I usually take 1 or 2 max, but sometimes it's so damn hot i take 1 before going to the university, 1 when i get home, and then 1 at night before going to bed cause i'm all sweaty

Most people are overly obsessed with bathing anyways. I think its an insecurity that many people share and think that they must be spotless whenever they get dirty. I live in the country, and am outside doing shit all the time, and im pretty dirty most of the time. I still take showers, but I think you get the point. Not taking a shower for a week isnt really going to harm anyone, i mean come on. In todays world, not many people sweat everyday, and barely go outside, so therefore, your not really that dirty come the end of the day. Not saying i take a shower on a weekly basis, but i have gone a while without showering (weeklong campouts, weekend campouts, finals, etc), and it really isnt too dirty. Think of Devin, he probably doesnt take a shower every night when touring, and you still shook his hand

I'm concerned with how dreadlocks may influence Dev's music.

God I hope no one took me seriously.

dude, if you take 1 shower a week living in Brazil, you WILL smell like a bum, it's a FACT

With dreadlocks don't you have to like unknot them to wash them, then tie them up again? So you have to just keep them as dreads all th time unless you have alot of time to re-tie them.

Thats how i understand it anyway.

Dreadlocks aren't really tied. They're just never washed so they get real greasy and they'll stick together automatically.
I've heard people wash their dread with salt and water, because that doesn't de-grease the hair but does get the smell out.

a friend of mine has them
he used to wash them with hot water with all kinds of citric fruits in it
