Whenever they are starting to eat each other at the roots (unless you want them to congo). Check them once or twice a week, or after every wash.
how often should i seperate them?

They do look quite twisted, but no worries, they're still babies and will sort themselves out with time. Just wash & separate as SE said and they'll turn out great!
How did you start them? They look totally normal for only 1 month... you've got defined sections and some tangles happening, which is great. That's all really you can hope for in the first few weeks.
wow what a difference a few wees makes huh they look way better already and seem tio be dreading up i really had no idea what to expect after what they had done to u (that really confused me alot unless the goal was a total rats nest mono dread)but your actually getting some decent dreading already im gonna move this to the saved dreads success stories section cause i think already were seeing some real successfull recoveryhow do u feel about the progress so far?(byw its funny u mention not wanting a huge single dread since that what the locticians techniques would have resulted in)
Gone through a lot of changes. a lot of things have loosened up, almost completely. Im worried about it being completely natural because I would rather not have one big knot. I do section about once a week but again its only been 3 weeks. pics attached. Just washed it today also, so I had alot of untangling.
I really do appreciate it guys, and they already are looking and feeling much much better. Attached is a pic. I will continue to keep em up in my wool hat and just make sure they dont jump into eachother. I was hearing salt water sprayed in helps too?
