The best way to tighten the middle of your dreads is to palm roll them.

It's not really a good idea, because the dread will start to unravel because the hair that was holding the knots together before is gone. You will have to wait for the tip to lock up again and it's just a pain in the arse. But if you are going to do it the best way to cut it is like a flower, cut it at an angle and then put a rubber band around the tip and rub the tip against the palm of your hand everyday for about 2 days and then take the rubber band out.

Loose hairs at the root
1. Use a dental floss threader and thread the loose hair through the root of the dread. Then put a rubber band around the root, make sure the rubber band is just snug on the dread, if it is to tight the rubber band will not allow the hair to move.
