How to Apply

Step 1 – Prepare

Start with clean, dry or slightly damp dreadlocks. Ensure your hair is free from excess oils or product build-up before application.

Step 2 – Apply

Scoop a small amount of Dreadlocks Wax onto your fingertips and warm it between your hands until it softens. Apply sparingly to loose hairs, new growth or individual dreadlocks that need extra hold.

Step 3 – Work Through

Roll the dreadlock firmly between your palms or use your preferred maintenance method to distribute the wax evenly through the hair. Smooth down loose hairs and shape each dreadlock as required.

Step 4 – Maintain

Use as part of your regular dreadlock maintenance routine. Reapply only when needed, as a little goes a long way and excessive use may lead to product build-up over time.

Helpful Tip

For the best results, apply after washing or during routine dreadlock maintenance sessions. Palm rolling after application helps encourage a neater appearance while keeping loose hairs under control.

For external use only. Avoid contact with eyes. If irritation occurs, discontinue use. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

Pro Tips

✔ Use sparingly

A small amount is all that's needed for effective hold and control.

✔ Warm before applying

Softening the wax between your fingertips makes it easier to distribute evenly.

✔ Focus on new growth

Apply mainly to loose hairs and the roots rather than coating the entire dreadlock.

✔ Maintain regularly

Routine palm rolling and maintenance help keep dreadlocks looking neat and well-defined.

✔ Wash when needed

Regular cleansing with a suitable dreadlock shampoo helps minimise product build-up and keeps your dreadlocks feeling fresh.
