Sadhus, or Hindu ascetics, typically do not wash their locks frequently, as they often believe that maintaining their hair in its natural state is a form of spiritual practice. Some may wash their hair occasionally, especially if they feel it is necessary for cleanliness, but many view their matted hair, or "jata," as a symbol of their devotion and renunciation of worldly concerns. The frequency of washing can vary widely among individuals based on personal beliefs and circumstances.

What are sadhus?

Sadhus are ascetic practitioners in Hinduism who renounce worldly life to seek spiritual enlightenment and liberation (moksha). Often characterized by their unique attire, such as simple robes and often distinctive markings on their bodies, they may live in hermitages or wander as itinerant monks. Sadhus generally adhere to strict spiritual disciplines, including meditation, yoga, and devotion to deities. They play a significant role in Hindu culture, often participating in religious festivals and gatherings like the Kumbh Mela.
