How do you wash them properly? Let alone drying them?

Carefuly. The same way you wash regular hair, but longer. And you do it in the morning because they’re gonna be wet for hours.

Any hair will smell if it isn’t taken care of.

Yes.
My wife had them for about a year. She had friends with them. They had a bunch of different methods for “totally fixing the smell” that they 100% believed worked, which 100% did not work. The people in this thread claiming that they don’t smell either have bad noses (maybe long covid) or are just desensitized to it.

It’s the patchouli and skunk weed that usually go along with white person dreads that smells.
