yea like they said the recovery can take a loooong time you will see extreme frizz (all the broken hairs pop out)
they will soften thicken become more felexible
losing that crochetted look can take a very long time
but the natural dreading..the taking care of themselves starts soon as you stop forcing them so you wont have to worry about a thing..however will have to accept a degree of messiness as they heal

Thanks for the advice. I already feel a change, it's subtle of course, but i can feel it! By the way my niece wants to have dredz "done" in a salon or something, and I'm happy to say I could share some of the things I learned here. Told her to check this site out to have an impression ofwhat itreally isabout, and managed to prevent her from making the same mistakes. So in 2 weeks time you guys helped 2 members of my family. Impressive...

Thanks. I used wax a couple of times years ago, and I think I managed to cut the parts with wax in them. They had become thin and britlle anyway...I checked theparts I cut, and the wax was still there, all dirty looking. God that's nasty stuff!!!

No need to cut them. Crochet recovery can take a very very long time tho. Be prepared for a lot of loose hair and fuzzies. Was wax ever used? If so you'll want to do some aggressive wax removal as well. There are others that know a lot more on this than I do, hopefully they can help guide thru the recovery. Good luck and welcome to the community!!!
