One thing I have noticed with my hair is that I can almost never see it's true length. My hair shrinks almost up to 80% in it's afro state and even when it is braided or twisted it still shrinks to about 50-75%! This really holds me back when I am trying to rock my twisted or braided hair in styles, like up dos or pony tails. I have already discovered that my loose banded hair can be stretched in to a high pony-tail and almost into a low pony-tail. The thing is I never where my hair loose, because that requires too much maintenance. I recently decided to try an experiment where I banded my twist in about six large sections. The results were incredible! I could fit my twist easily into a half-up, half-down style. By November 2012f, I should be able to fit my stretched twist into a comfortable pony-tail if not a low pony-tail.
I have always known about stretching my loose hair, but now I know the key is to stretch my twisted and braided hair! The easiest way to stretch my braided or twisted hair is by banding. Sign me up for stock in soft fiber bands!
