Traction Alopecia generally develop over an extended period of wearing your hair in a tight hairstyle. IMO, I would take out the braids, I will no longer risk my hairline for a style.

Nubian Rose if they are so tight to the point of concern then it's best to take them out. I had the cornrow style done last nearly 2 years ago and I lost a lot of hair when I took them down. If you can feel any tension anywhere on your head from wearing a style then it's too tight.
