Answer #1

Put in the wax then braid a REALLY tight braid. Thats what I’m doing. But I’m only doing one dread. Youvegotjordan is wrong about the washing. You CAN wash it just don’t brush it. While it’s sitting in the braid, you sould tease the bottom of your braid and twist it between your fingers or palms. HOPE I HELPED!!! .:!~!SHANNARA!~!:.

Answer #2

a lot of people have dont it themselves and getting it profesionally done costs too much one thing you can do it put your hair into braids or plaits then rub the hair between your hands in a way that youd rub 2 sticks together to start a fire this will tangle up your hair and make the braids/plaits stick together then you keep doing that for a while untill theyve set it might take a few weeks though beeswax and wax and that isnt bad to use but its real hard getting it out

Answer #3

Get them professionally done… the outcome will be much better that way than if you’d try to do it yourself.

Answer #4

I think you have to get it professionally done.I’ve never heard of anyone doing it thereselves.

Answer #5

Wash it and twist it dry while applying the wax. After that, stop washing and brushing it. Maybe even try holding your hair in seperate strands with a ponytail holder?
