If let be they will eventually becgome an inch thick and are starting to form congos in the back.

There are videos on Babas page. But, you can separate from the tips or the bottoms. I hear that it is safer from the bottoms, and when done while hair is wet. How big are the sections in question? Are they congos or are they just single dreads that got too big?
Prob wait a good bit before starting over natural.

and start over naturally or no
phhs if I have to brush the majority of them out I'll prob just leave them out.
Danielle Hache said:
yup that should work
I think I'll go at it by soaking them and using condit something. Might just have to bush most out then dread them again.

well by the time i noticed mine i had to rip them hard to get them apart ..as far as doing it more gently maybe put some conditioner in them to loosen the knots just in the specific dread your trying to seperate
I am at the 2-3 mark of my dreads with the TnR method. I need to separate some of them but they are pretty tight and thick and I am having a hell of a time. I tried yesterday and as soon as I heard some hair break I pretty much gave up.
Does anyone have any suggestions or methods on how to separate dreads without putting too much damage on your hair?
My dreads aren't as short as yours but every time I get out of the shower my dreads become super poofy and sometimes they stay like that for a day or two and other times the next day they shrink back down.
Nice dreads! Love all the zig zags I can't stop running my fingers over mine they just feel soo neat.
pretzel roll, corned beef, onions, candy bacon, cheese, with jack daniels bbq sauce.
It happens, that's how mine were when I started out and most are still like that after 3 months ish. I just leave them like that the longer you have the TnR in they become more loose at the ends then they tighten back up in time.
