โœ๏ธ Can I swim in a pool/ocean while wearing synthetic dreads?

ย 

Both natural and synthetic dreads require special care and attention if you plan to swim in a pool or ocean.

ย 

โœ… Natural dreads:

When you have natural dreads, you need to be cautious not to use too many chemicals or expose them to excessive water, especially in chlorinated pools or seawater. Pool water may contain chemicals that can weaken the hair and affect its condition. It's recommended to cover your head with a special swim cap to protect the dreads from absorbing chlorine and saltwater. After getting out of the water, thoroughly rinse your hair with fresh water to remove any residual salt or chlorine. Also, remember to regularly tighten and care for your dreads to maintain their beautiful appearance.

Synthetic dreadlock are more resistant to water than natural dread, but they still require caution during swimming. Avoid frequent soaking of synthetic dreads in salty/chlorinated water as it can weaken the synthetic fibers and affect their durability. It's advisable to use a special cap or carefully tie up the dreads to limit their exposure to water. After swimming in saltwater or a pool, it is recommended to thoroughly rinse the dreads with fresh water to remove salt or chlorine. Make sure to let them dry before binding or styling.

ย 

It's also worth noting that swimming in saltwater may cause greater drying of both natural and synthetic hair. Therefore, it's essential to take proper care and moisturize the hair after swimming.
