Allo all. My name is Taylor, and I'm a newbie at dreading. I've attempted it once, and it went horribly wrong. I was told, and even researched that beeswax would be best. So I used it, along with rubberbands and my dreads stuck straight up and were a goopy mess by the time morning came. I was able to wash the wax out, and save my hair from it. My hair is cut into a mohawk with fringe and bangs. I came here in hope someone would give me some awesome advice on how to backcomb, and get dreads WITHOUT using products.
