Actual unraveling of the loop's windings back around the string's shaft would be a true oddity, at least within the last 5 or 6 decades. If you mean breaking the loop, as pops1 assumed, it could well be due to a sharp spot on that string's "seemingly" round post.
But a question: Why are you loosening the strings in the first place, other than for minor tuning adjustments?
