Stretching Your Hair

Hello to all of my lovely naturals,

Okay so I admit, I have been holding out on you all. I am not really into length you know how some of the naturals do a legnth check every month well I am just not that into it...I mean I love having my hair grow but I am really concerned with it growing out..I LOVE big hair the bigger the better. With that being said I do understand the need to stretch your hair because sometimes the shrinkage kills me. So here is what I do when the need arises to stretch my hair first I co-wash my hair and de tangle hop out of the shower and moisturize it, then I put it into about 8 twists and seal it with coconut oil. When twisting the hair the object is to not make it too fat but to have medium size twists. I let that sit over night then in the morning I take it down put a light moisturizer on it like my curly souffle and then braid the twists. At this point you can just leave them to dangle, or if you want them curly just curl the ends...or if your hair is short then take the braids and attach the braids to one another going backwards like in a pony tail....this will stretch your hair. I let this sit for about 4 hours and then I take it down and rock it. Try it and tell me how it works for you or tell me what you do to stretch your locks.



Always,

Verano
