I get this too, The belt folds over and hangs up as it passes through the loop by the headrest. I guess the spring in the retractor isn't very strong or worn.

Alot of times some dirt and gunke can get into the retracter mechanisms. if you can get it opened up try spraying it down with silicone spray this worked like a charm for me.
