welcome u definately do not want wax in dreads or to palm roll these are my dreads i never did a thing just went campoing and it dreaded no backcomb no nothing
wax prevents dreading it just glues hair together to look dreaded
Welcome. Wax in general is horrible for locks. It prevents locks, at best. At worst, it is known to clog pores and requires surgery to fix.
Bees wax is the worst. It is so sticky and tacky that it's impenetrable by water. just 2 weeks of using it on my first set cause my hair to literally rot and melt off. I used it a lot, but even just once or twice will cause water to get trapped in your locks and give mold and mildew the perfect breeding grounds.
Wax, also, does not wash out in normal soap and water. It never will. It's a hydrocarbon. It needs a tough degreaser to get it out. Dawn Dish soap, or the wax remover from dreadlockshampoo.com work best.
But if you want to see any progress, you will need to remove the wax
welcome never crochet it doesnt keep them neat it causes the broken hairs to pop out all over so u have to become a slave to the hook they look way way beter if u never scre em up with crochet
One session take up to 6 months to fix themselves. Multiple sessions may take longer. There are now so many broken hairs that have tons of tips that need to get sucked back in. It would be better for your locks to try and loosen them up a little bit with jojoba oil or aloe that will make it easier to pull them in
Evenoccasionalcrocheting damages them. Every session causes tons of broken hairs that eventually pop out and make you feel like you need to fix it. If you let it go, they would fix themselves and get pulled in.
Every time you poke a hole in your locks, you are hurting them and making them weaker and weaker to the point tat they won't last a lifetime. If you do the roots too, they will eventually snap off because the roots are so weak that they can support the weight of the lock itself.

Welcome. But crocheting is almost as bad as wax. It's extremely damaging to the longevity of your locks.
