wax b gone
Dread Maintenance
so i am in the process of removing the bees wax from my dreads and am having some difficulty getting it all out. they were done at a salon with bees wax and i went back for "maintenance" twice where they melted more bees wax in them so it is pretty deep and a fair bit in there still, but alot better than before. ive tried the dipping the dreads in boiling water and then using soap, this worked really well for the first 2 or 3 times but now it dose not seem to be working as well. i have also used wax b gone twice and it is working i think, i have found it difficult to massage it in because some are still quite hard. any tips or hints would be extremely helpful.
peace
Leon

dread wax and dread kits recovery
had a go with the dish soap tonight got some wax out but there is still heaps left and a fair bit of dirt and stuff out considering it is the first time i have washed them since i got them. is there a special technique to applying the dish soap, i kinda just rubbed it in and then washed it out with hot water. should i do this every day? and can i also do it every day with wax b gone? should i also be using dread shampoo while in the de-waxing process?
sorry about all the questions, cheers for the help. this i a picture after the wash

gday so i got my dreads done at a salon about a year ago so there with wax and i probably dident research enough and now i want to get rid of the wax, would you have any tips, will 'wax b gone' work because there is a fair bit of wax in them. or is it easier to chop em off and start again they also have heaps of dirt and crap i them because i was told not to wash them and i work on a construction site and there is lots of dust about.
any help or tips are greatly appreciated
cheers
