i started my dreadlocks with bees wax I've had them for about 2 years and for the first year i used wax all the time i never tried to remove the wax from my dreads but Im pretty sure its all gone now because my dreads don't feel waxy or look waxy is it because i used bees wax or am i just an anomaly
no its because u cant dfeek the inside of the dread bees wax is extra hard to remove
\id get on removing it right away you will be amazed at how much better yjey are after its gone
You're not ananomaly I have a friend who has 6 year old locks that you can't feel the wax in either. It's because the wax is covered up by hair. It isn't on the surface anymore. Now it's stuck in the core of your locks. And it will be harder to remove because of it. And Beeswax is even harder to remove than DHHQ and KB.
Wax will never wash out in normal washes, so you can be 100% sure it's all there. If you were to cut open a lock, you'd see hair as an outer layer with a gooey sticky core.
If you are serious about removing it, spend a little extra time working the remover deep inside and let it sit for a bit longer
thats just it recently i was at a party and some kid tore one of my dreads in half it wasn't that big of a deal to me but the center was the sameconsistencyas the surface

in 1/2 like across or down the length of it it can be inconsistent in clumps the only way to see it is to slice it the entire length of it
i would do wax removal and see for yourself wbat comes out
but when u used t did u me,lt it in or just put on the surface
If they are 2 years old, you should never have been able to rip them in half. That is proof in itself that they weren't mature. That is what wax does. You probably could have palm rolled the 2 halves back together and not even known it was separated once.
A mature lock is so intertwined that it would take half a bottle of conditioner, a brush and a few days to separate it. Not one kid in an instant with their bare hands
i applied it to the surface

Still, If you palm rolled at all, it got pushed inside. And just over time, from sleeping and washing and any hats your wore, it got squished deeper and deeper inside
i'll try wax removal and see what happens thanks for the advice man
