Hey all,
As you may have seen before, I started just over a month ago doing natural dreads (my parents dont want me to dread, so if its slow they wont realise as much!).
Problem is, the natural sections are too thin... I would like them thicker, this is the thickness I want (I want the same lenght too, but of course I have to wait for that!):

One of my friends with dreads told me I should twist every seperation clockwise. Not too tight, but a bit. He didnt tell me that because they are thin, he just said it helps, and I have to say it has "defined" the sections a bit more, but they are too thin...
Any tips on making them thicker? Should I just twist 2 thin sections together?
I have a few "dreads" (probably not knotted enough to be called dreads lol) that are very thin, but VERY tight/compact, only about 2mm in diameter, but they seem to be locking very tightly.
What should I do to thicken them? Check out picutre after I washed them, you can get an idea of the thickness.
Thanks a lot, Jonathan
