Yeah, unless there are tears etc under the scales, or missing scales.. not too much to worry about.
Lazarus,
One of the reasons your snake is getting the folded scales, is lack of floor space -

I own a beautiful 6 and a half foot red tailed boa that is currently in my dorm room closet hiding from my RA's he is in a tall enclosure that takes up most of the closet.

What are the dimensions of the cage in the closet?
Lack of floor space can lead to several issues, some minor, some major.
Stress from lack of relaxing stretched out is one problem, not being able to breath easy most of the time etc..
Big boas stay on the ground quite a bit more than smaller ones. If yours does stay in the climbing spots often, it isn't due to their natural tendencies.
Same if it stays curled up a lot on the floor..
Simply put, the snake needs more floor space than height.
