Welcome. Twisting is fine to start. But it should never be done as maintenance. Retwisting causes a condition called traction alopecia, which leads directly to baldness.
When you started, did you do it yourself or go to a salon? If a salon, did they use any wax, creams, or gels?
welcome definately dont retwist most afro=ican americans who do the salon dread thing are going bald from retwistimng
Welcome, like Baba had said the twisting start of your dreads are fine, but never re-twist for maintenance. Happy Dreading.
Always, Hippie Love

Welcome. When they are dirty, they deserve more than a soak. Are you using any soap? Also, how often do you wash? It's best to wash every 2-3 days
Welcome to the community. I assume your dreads are natural? If so, great choice
Looking forward to seeing your pictures.
