How do you secure the ends of Kinky Dreds?

This weekend I decided to put in my own Kinky Dreds. I put my hair in box braids with extensions (using kanekalon hair) and then I wrapped each braid (with the marley "kinky twist" hair) so that it would look like a dredloc. But how are they normally secured at the end? How do braiders normally secure the silky dreds? I don't want to burn them. I dipped one in hot water but the end unraveled.
All of you braiders out there....please help.:spinning:

Depending on the thickness some ppl just braid the very tip, you really can't tell that its braided.

Thanks. That's how I have it now but I'm afraid the wrapped hair will loosen from around the braid.
I still have a couple more braids to wrap tonight so I wore it in a bun today.
