So I got my dreads done about 5 months ago. I never really finished them, figuring they'd do it on their own, but they haven't. And by unfinished I mean not that tight, some coming undone and random hairs coming out of some. I have the beeswax to do it, I just don't know exactly what to do, I didn't do them myself. So yea how do I go about it? Thanks
Try the really really really frequently asked question thread. I'm about 4-5-6 month stage and I got loose hairs erwhere. It's all good in the hood mang.
leave them alone dreads can take 12 months or more to mature and tighten the other thing is wash that waxout of your dreadsgiven time they'll mature on there own
please see the FAQ thread. then, come back. http://www.hipforums.com/newforums/showthread.php?t=365451&f=209
Alright so basically all I got from the FAQ was that I shouldn't even bother using beeswax and that the person who did my dreads used the worst method(braiding). I have natural dreads in the back that look perfect, but the ones I had done are still half braids half dreads. I want them all to be as good as the ones in the back, and yes I know time time time but some of them are really messy and look like shit, so should I use beeswax or not on them?!?!?!?!
No! They're gonna look messy as fuck for a while. If ya really concerned about keepin neat, grab a crochet hook. I don't condone this, but it's a possible route.
Alright thanks for the info. I was really dreading, haha, using beeswax since it's so greasy and slimy. I'm glad to hear I shouldn't.
I bought into it in the beginning too dude. No worries man, you know now. Now it's time to just chill and let ya hair do it's thangathang.
