Best Answer

Salts open microscopic hair follicles (spelling?), which will help hairs bind together with each other. This makes dreadlocks tighter and mature faster. It is great for dreadlocks, however only all-natural sea salts should be used. Also, overuse of salt water in dreadlocks can cause the hair to become extremely dry and brittle, and sometimes cause dread breakage.
its also corrosive so can irritate the scalp if left on
