Welcome to the community Brittany. Glad to hear you did not like the feel of beeswax in your dreads and you have already combed them out. Have you done anything to remove the wax yet? There are two ways: Wax B Gone from Dreadlockshampoo.com works fantastic I have heard. Here is a posting on that product: http://www.dreadlockssite.com/page/dread-wax-removal-is-finally $15
You can also use Dawn dish soap and hot water. Get a pot of boiling water and mix in some dawn dish soap, (they use it to remove oil from animals affected by oil spills, works great). Let it cool just a little but still be very hot, dip sections of your hair into the water for a few minutes and it will start to melt the wax out. You will need to do this quite a few different times to get it all out completely. Once will not be enough to get it all out. Your hair will be so happy and will reward you with beautiful, lightweight happy dreads when your begin your journey again.....Peace
Welcome. Did you do anything to get the residue from the wax off? I'd highly recommend getting a small bottle of a good clarifying shampoo and try to wash it all off, just in case any is left over

Welcome. Start off by reading the dreaducation page. Then take a look at the timeline forums to see what the first weeks/months look like.
How are you thinking of starting?
