yes it can the stickyness in the plant is a perfect way to lock your dreads the good part about the alo plant is it doesnt leve your hands all sticky and nasty and it will not lwave your hair all greesy either. the only bad part bout this is that you have to find a big alo plant that will do the job. Yeah, anyways...

Be sure not to use any aloe vera "gels" that come in a bottle from the store. With the exception of a few organic, all-natural brands, these aloe gels contain preservatives, artificial colors, artificial scents, etc, that can be bad for your locks. It will leave residue in your hair and will hinder the locking process, and could possibly build up in your locks over a long period of time (1+ years) and cause mold, mildew, and bad smells.
