section size for thin dreadlocks

I am going to section and start TnR tomorrow I prefer thinner dreadlocks--so how big should i make the sections? SE mentioned a variety of 1/4-1/2 inch sections--can anyone else weigh in--I have SUPER thick, long hair and shed many hairs now so I imagine that once my dreadlocks start to mature and hold these loose hairs they will beef up, but how much is any one's guess. Can anyone give me a photo compare of their dreadlocks from newish to mature for size comparison please. Thanks!also aside from breaking what other downfalls to thinner dreadlocks are there?

Make one, grab a tini little bit of hair and youll see how much that does. If it's too thick make the section thinner. Dreads generally end up being the size of the sections

when real long 200 dreads can be a hassle to keep track of they get tangled all around u stuck in doors just too many to deal with
