before i found this site, i fell for the dreadhead hq thing, used wax and everything. i started to question how rastafarians and nazarenes had such awesome dreads without using this stuff. so after i found this site i decided to completely stop with the wax and all and just let it all go. its been a little over a month since i stopped and my dreads are better than ever. hardly have to do anything except wash and im loving it. besides, i dont have time for it.

cool did u try to get as much wax out as u could?and join the wax recovery group

yes, i was lucky to be kinda lazy with it, but yes i have tied to get as much out as i can. my dreads dry so much faster now that i stopped using it.

yea im sure they do

Hey how is rensselaer. I have gotten a lot of offers from them but didnt really know who they were. Anyways, welcome to the site.

thanks, and rensselaer is really awesome. lots of really cool people and there's always something to do. it's one of the top math, science, engineering, and architecture schools in the nation. if you get any offers, especially the rensselaer medal, take it. tuition is about 50k a year so get all the financial help you can get if you are thinking of applying. i would highly recommend considering RPI if you want to get a really good education. jacob miller said:
