It depends how you've had them done, and how you're maintaining it.

If you're using chemicals and wires to maintain your dreads, or do an excessive amount of palm rolling at the base, then they will never thicken up much. By forcing them into a specific compact shape, the dread just won't have the capacity to absorb all the hairs that normally fall out. These dreads will grow faster but will always be as thin as they were originally made to be.

If you're not forcing the dread into a compact shape at its base, then yes it will grow thicker. A dread does this by absorbing every hair in the area, including the ones that that normally fall out of your head. Remember the average human head loses 50-100 hairs a day!

Those dreads will grow slower, but thicker. Over time some dreads will merge together. You can fix this by ripping them apart if you want.

1989 ford f-150 6 cyd starter solenoid stays engaged on start what's the problem?

The Amperage draw is so high it locks the starter solenoid. This can be because of a bad starter bushing, low voltage in the battery, timing, etc. It is a major engineering defect in the design. All Fords prior to 1992 have this flaw. It can result in a fire, dead battery, etc. The good news is Ford redesigned their starters in 1992. The new starters will fit the old engines and Ford sells a retrofit kit to rewire the Solenoid for the new starter. The way it corrects the problem is the old solenoid becomes a starter relay, with the output wire now going to a solenoid mounted on the new starter. (This gives you less of a voltage drop at the new solenoid vs the old solenoid, that solves the problem in most cases) You need to buy the kit from Ford (Under $20.00) but you can buy the starter anywhere. Just give them your vehicle information as if you owned a 1993 Ford when buying the starter. You can also get a rebuilt starter from Ford. You could make your own kit, but the Ford Kit is everything you need and comes with instructions (priceless). Warprunner

If it won't unlock with the key, this means that the rod from the key tumbler to the door latch has become disconnected or is broken. If you can get the door open, you will need to remove the inside door panel and look in through the holes to see what the problem is.

Do dreadlocks grow?

Yes, of course they do. Dreadlocks are after all hair, and hair grows.However, as dreadlocks mature, they get tighter and tighter, thus causing the length of the locks to shorten. The extent they are shortened varies greatly in each person's locks: sometimes not even being noticeable; sometimes offsetting the length of the new hair growth at the root of the locks so that over long periods of time it appears that the locks have not grown longer.dreadlocks shrink for about 10 months then begin to grow and grow mine began at 3 inches 19 years ago and now drag on the ground
