Section Size

Since the advantage of backcombing can be that you can choose roughly how big your dreads will be what sizes did you go with?or did you mix it up or just start grabbing hair and backcombing it?For me I thought I wanted smaller dreads, but as I started I changed the sizes so that they ranged from about 1/2 inch to a little over an inch on the top of my head,Feel free to add pics or anything,
