Sup,

I went to an African Hair Salon (Called every spa / haircut place in my town, and none of them did dreads, One of the final places said I needed  to call an African Hair Salon, so I called one a few towns over and had it done)

I wanted really thin dreads, as I like the look of them... They do look pretty cool in person, and I dig them - my fear is the girl used too much wax on my hair / head. - I mean alot of my scalp got waxed and sh*t. They are still pretty stiff, although I assume its holding it all together well, I read up online that it may also impact it NOT locking up. Does anyone experience alot of wax when first having it done / will they be alright? haha thanks guys

Normally with our hair texture you really do not need beeswax. You had them coiled your texture will not hold a coil unless it is laden with a lot of beeswax and in the end that is not good because of the build up. You could have them backcombed and avoid all that excess wax!!!!! :-)  %! `bh`d! ! !<, -
