3 1/ months - Loose, fuzzy hairs normal?

Hey guys and gals!

As I have said in previous posts, I have to keep my hair in a tight bun with all sorts of bobby pins for 18 hours per week. I just got a second job so that's even more hours in this bun, along with when I practice yoga. I have noticed that my baby dreads are beginning to look more loose, almost starting to look like "normal" hair again! They are also becoming very fuzzy. I began the dreading process 3 and a half months ago.

I don't mind at all if this is apart of the process, but I was worried if this isn't part of the process and that I'm damaging them?

it is part of the process but your not helping things at all

are you 100% sure that a tight buns the only option? and why boby pins dreads are perfect for tying themselves up using nothing but dreads

Thank you, I do feel better now knowing that it is apart of the process.
I hate having to tie them up all of the time, but my boss is very strict and everyone has their hair up in ponytails/buns (I work in food). If I wear them in a ponytail, would that be a little better?

I could try to not use the bobby pins, but I am worried that my other job (which is in retail) will think it's too sloppy. They told me that I need to keep them VERY neat.
I have tried tying them up with themselves, but they're not strong or long enough yet; they have shrunk a lot.
I understand that this will slow down things, but will this be significant damage? Now thinking about it, I'm definitely going to lay off the bobby pins!
