It isn't, strictly speaking, "wet".

The tackiness and adhesion you feel when you touch the Wax itself with your fingers, or more to the point, your freshly-waxed dreadlocks, is the result of beeswax's amazing sealing and protective properties.

In the case of waxed dreadlocks, it'll take a while for it to wear off and wash out, so use it sparingly.

Waxed properly, your dreads will be "dry" in about two days. We recommend waiting that long to shampoo after waxing.
