i would stop all together im sure youve heard of traction alopecia? thats a possible end result
salons dont tell you thart the stuff they do is harmful they sell you on an idea that the "neat look" involves alot of exposed scalp and looking like your going bald
all thety want is to keep yopu comming back paying them
the healthiest thing you can ever do is never step foot in a salon again only seperate if they try to grow together and wash thats it
if any are too thin you might want to let them combine fior strength
hopefully all that scalpy look will go away and wont have any long term issues

alotta the salon dreads start to get that doll head look u know the old dolls that had tiny tuffs of hair comming out of holes in the head surrpunded by rubber scalp
what they dont tell ya is after several years if u shave u might just have those lil poka ots left cause all the pullin in way too tightly made the scalp no longer able to grow hair there
look at bob marly for instance who never twisted and had a full thick mane that just seemed to get fuller and thicker as he got older
then compare that to overmaintained dreads that just seem to get sparser and sparser
