About how long does it take normally for the hair to section off naturally?

Very thin and very tight baby dread??

Introduce Yourself

HI THERE!!!!!

So I've been wanting and loving dreads for almost five years now. In a few days I will dread everything but my bangs! How exciting!!! My only dilemma now is how big I want them. I made a few medium sized ones and one thin one with the twist and rip method. I have very straight hair by the way. My medium sized dreads don't seem very well made and want to loosen up quite a bit. I feel like it might be because of my hair type becauseI did it very tight to begin. But my tiny thin dread is very very tight! I like it but im wondering if I even did it well since it has a whole bunch of single strands every where poking out and making little loops. My question is did I make it too tight and will it eventually smooth out? Idk tell me what you guys think please!! Im not sure if im just worrying too much either..... I see everyone elses new dread photos and they are always so fluffy and then they get tighter over time but idk if its because this is a really thin dread? Will my dread thicken up over time? Here aretwo pictures:

Thanks much!!
