Single strand knots are a real menace and unfortunately, they happen to be part and parcel of being natural and the shrinkage does not make it any better. When I first noticed single strand knots in my hair, some two years back, I did not know what was happening to my kinks. Upon researching and asking around, I was told they are single strand knots, sometimes known as fairy knots because they are so small only a fairy can tie them and they seem to happen mysteriously. (That should be a very bad fairy to be tying knots in my hair. Ha ha ha!)
