    Hi all.

    I need to fix my dreads and wantd to know what kind of gels you all use, as I hear (many times!) that wax is of the dread devil. I know most gels won't fly so I was curious is there are several brands I could use.
    I have only heard of KnottyBoy's product, but it is expensive (relative to other gels) and I want to know it is worth the money plus shipping. If I ever fix my dreads (I need 4 arms) then I will post pics. right now it's a mess.
    Thanks for your help

    P.S. I am vegan, so the gel can't have cow hooves (gelatin) or any crap like that in it and more importantly can't be tested on animals.
