    Wax can tend to ruin things... The colors start getting funky after a while...

    I always just leave a little bit of string in case it would loosen~but I always pull it tight~I have saw stuff with wax and I agree~it always looks like crap and gross after a short bit~
    I have heard of people using super glue~not sure if it works or not~but maybe someone that uses it will have some more insite~
    Happy Hempin'

    clear nail polish or fabric tac always works for me. It's all I use. Another trick is to use wrap knots for the ends and you will never have to deal with slipping again.

    I put crazy glue on the ends of my knots. Honestly, I know natural is best, but sometimes you need glue!

    just tie it really tight. i yanked my necklace knot for about 30 minutes. it hasn't come untied over the course of a year.
