how do you anti-frizz your hemp???

I love to make hemp jewelery, however, its not easy to get really great quality hemp here. and some of my makings frizz out, i soak them in water and smooth them, but that wont tame them enough, what should i put on them?

 

I haven't experienced much problems with frizzy hemp, although I've heard some people using a mild soap diluted in the water when soaking or washing it, and try to minimize aggitation (sp?)... although I can't be sure because I've never tried it...

 

I coat my hemp with beeswax before I start working with it. You can buy beeswax in a little bar. I get my hemp cut that I am going to use. Then I run it over the bar a few times till I think it is coated. Here is an auction for some beeswax so you can see what I am talking about.

thanks! im experimenting with dying my hemp with rit dye and see if that might help,

 

run a lighter under it for just a second

 

waxing them is the best way I know, but many people do not like the look of waxed hemp
