When do you know that your dreads are mature??

I've been freeforming for 9 months approaching 10 and I noticed my hair has slowed down alot on the shrinking, it almost appears like it isn't shrinking at all anymore and my hair is starting to get more fuller and tighter. I think i'm on the cusp of the shrinking/mature stage what do you think?

But aside from that I just want to know the signs of mature dreads

ok

look at children

they start off as pink lil wrinkly things

then start to misbehave in the todler stage

in the teen stage they go wild peirce thier faces (and other body parts) get tats go out drinking an d partying and making you worry

then they start to chill oiut settle down get a job maybe go to university but still go out partying getting into trouble

then finaly settle into a rut not changing alot day to day maybe having a backyard barbeque for "fun"

so basicly yoir dreads are in the late teen stage i would think

they still are changing alot

when mature any changes are more spread out more subtle no more waking up to see whats newly changed overnight
