Help with Sheading =(

Okay i Use Satin strands and use a micro link meathod. I put in about 200 strands, and every things holds well. I do them myself but i check about once a week for some that may be slipping or basically maintnance to prevent tangling at the root area. Everything seems fine and after they grow or slide down after about 2 months of wear i take them all out and redue them. The problem is after i take them out and wash my naturall hair and then comb it out i have so much breakage.
I do belach my hair but i also do a lot of deep conditioning and reconstructer to it so i know my hair stays pretty healthy but i dont understand why it is still breaking more twords the top by the root it seems to be getting tangled but i check like i said about once a week and feel for tangling if there is some i take it out comb through and reinstall.
does anyone have any advice or do you think i am doing them wrong i mean they are clean installs i have had professional stylist give me a lot of credit for they way they look. Then again I have had "professional stylist" tell me i let my hair grow out too far (3 inches) and they wont bleach my roots so I dont know. Someone please help me

Your hair could be too fragile from the bleaching and that may be why you are having breakage. Or it could be something to do with the way the rings are being installed or removed. Are you using a smooth plier/tool to install? If there are ridges on your pliers it could cause sharp edges that can cut the hair. When removing are you using a re-rounder tool to reopen the rings? A regular plier can mangle the ring and cause sharp edges.
