I got my dreads put in about two (2) days ago (my wife did it) and I was wondering a few things...
1) am i using to much wax? not enough?
2) even after rolling i have mucho frizz
3) I finger rolled (back and forth between my thumb and index finger) my roots and they seemed to get looser rather than tighter
and 4) I have strands of hair that are locked in some parts of the dread, but stick out at other parts of the dread.
Wonderinf if all this is normal or what?

Theyre only 2 days old+ so just keep at the rolling and maintaining.  They take a long time to lock in.

The hair take a while to lock... Yes it is normal for strands to pop out here and there...keep up the maintance and it should work.
