• He said he used dread pepper and washed it with a rag and some soap. I didnt hear him mention anything about palm rolling or crocheting, but he might have done that.

If you're locks don't get thinner towards the root, you're fine.  And if they "feel" thinner, that's different. They will almot always feel thinner at the root because the hair there is still straight.  You can squeeze it and your fingers should touch.  But if the hair at your roots is actually getting pulled out of your scalp and thinning, that can be a problem, in about 10 years.  I have 3 locks that are thinning out at the root from my genetic predisposition to baldness, as well as having palm rolled them in the very beginning.  And my locks are over 6 years old now.  Even though they are thinner that I'd like, I know they will still last quite a few more years.  

Locks don't just fall out unless you abuse them or someone yanks them really hard.  Then you have a different problem.  (Why were you hanging out with someone who would pull your hair out?)

I've only had 1 part of a lock fall out because it was weak in the middle and years ago I though I could help make it more stable by tying a knot at the weak spot.  It just aggravated it and about a weak ago it finally snapped off in the shower.  None have ever fallen out at the root.  If you don't use tools, wax, palm roll, crochet your roots, or interlock, you have nothing to worry about

I think your friends information is misleading hun. Just keep em clean and seperated and you should have no trouble at all. My friend Drew is coming up on 17 years of thin hair and what started as thin dreads. Over the years many have congoed and thickened up.
