I got my hair backcombed back in apr 2008. I did not really know much about dreads other than from when i had it in my hair back in 2006, but back then they fell out after 3 months and it became straight hair again. So during my time in Iceland i got an idea to try having dreads again, i sort of missed them, but this time i wanted them to be there permanen. Back then this site was not even thought of so i tried out with a lot of natural beeswax and melted it in to a big area of all the dreads, the result being really sharp and heavy dreads, sort of the stiffness of a candle, but permanent they where; and still are. Today they sort of grow thicker and thicker because of all the melted beeswax =0). I have not added any after april 2008, now they have taken a life of their own, and the beeswax slow gets out.
