My Dread Lock

This is the very beginning of a 3 month project. There is some debate within the dreadie community about the usefulness of dread wax. The hope is to find out what, if any, damage or difference may be caused due to the use of dreadlock wax. I will be using the wax AS DIRECTED by the major wax selling companies, and both experimental dreads will be exposed to the same everyday activities that my own dreads go through, in order to ensure fair results. This is an ongoing project that I hope to update weekly, so stay tuned!!

okay, this one’s longer than normal…sorry! I started running my mouth a bit. But basically, it’s the same ol’ thing. Just me, applying wax. I know it’s boring, but I think it’s important to document each waxing no matter how boring and unexciting it is.

Thanks to that person I mention in the video, I was planning on some outdoor activities, recorded for your viewing pleasure, to see ow the waxed dread holds up against dirt and debris compared to my non waxed locks. I’ve never had a problem with dirt before, and I was told that wax won’t make dirt stick…so I wanna test this to see if it’s true. Please leave your comments, and lemme know what you think of this idea and if you’d be interested in seeing it!

And remember to visit the forum http://dreadlocktruth.com/ for discussion and details, as well as friendly dready Q&A and conversation!!!
