Well, it works like wax, but you can remove it in 2 days with water... I only use the white part of the egg then dryed it with a hairblower...

oh k its basicly hair mouse kindaaloe vera works better without getting that rotten egg smell Jose Gutierrez said:

I started my dreads in january 2008 I stopped usin wax in july 2008 cuz I had a bad feeling bout it not just the oilyness I just felt like I needed 2 let them breath. I would only use a lil wax after my weekly shower but still felt bad plus I think it was makin me break out on my forehead. So anyway I got my head washed by 1 of my rasta friends in april 2009 n he really got in there n scrubbed my scalp. He was showin me the crap comin outta my head n hair. There was so much wax it was nasty. Its scary 2 think that after 9-10 months of not using wax n washing my hair at least once a week that there was still wax up there. Yuck I'm such an anti-wax person n I tell every1 I kno growin locks that story 2 stop the wax revolution

i only used to wax years ago when i tried to dreadlock really little spikes into my hair...but i was young and nieve and that hair had been cut out a looong time ago....i had to uses a headlice comb everytime i wanted it out..never again hahaha...after about 8 years of growing my hair i wouldnt ever want to put anything in it that would ruin it..you grow attached to it :P

I remember my dreads being wet for long periods of time since the wax doesnt let your hair dry. Now that im not using it seems to dry within an hour after washing.
