Deadheading hellebores?

Mine are going over and I don't want/need any more self seeding so I was contemplating deadheading them soon. Does anybody else do this?  Are there any problems?

    Good idea.
    There will not be any problems doing this

    I deadhead mine, if I get round to it. The nigers, in particular, look a bit scruffy and go a horrible dirty pink. It allows anything else nearby to take over without the hellebores detracting from them  :)
    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
