The fist of 3 videos to set the record straight about dreadlocks and dreadlock maintenance regarding dread wax. This video explains how dread wax works and goes over a few common misconceptions. I also mention my bias as someone who has used wax to start two great sets of my own dreads and who has spent the last 10 years helping hundreds of people start world class dreadlocks. Basically I brag on myself a bit so people will know that I know my stuff

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!!
