well all things concidered they lok better then expected the crochet as horible as that is didnt seem to drasticly delay anything the loops and lumps and oddshaped roots are all good things but you should stop palm roling them too

You will see the best and most progress from the areas that loosen up. Last dread journey, I did T&R on my whole hair. Most of the back came mostly to completely undone and ended up locking up quicker than the T&R locks. Early on, I had tried to T&R a couple back up that came completely loose, but then they would fall back apart. There will never be progress on those until you let them be, trust me!
The ones that look braided will look that way for a while. I had several like that, and they didn't start to look less braidy until about 10 months. It might take longer or shorter for you, so just be patient.
Good luck! The more you mess with them, the less they have a chance to progress.

Hey,they really don't look so bad! The answer to your problem is time, dear. Crocheting, twisting and ripping, in the end just slows and hinders the process. My advice to you is to not do anything for as long as you can bear it, and don't let your friends, especially those without experience, stick poky things in your locks. Separate them every time you wash, which can be anywhere 1-2-3 weeks in between, or more. I'd suggest washing with 1cup baking soda/a gallon of water solution. Just pour it over, wait 10 min, rinse out generously. If they start getting too dry, and you get worried, try Dr. Bronner's! You can get it at Trader Joe's and other good stores like that. Then shed your fear of loops, my dear! You will learn to love them through the patience you acquire in letting go! <3 Love to ya, good luck!
