      Yes it is, it’s called banding 💛. I’ve done it before. Lot of tension on the scalp if you make it tight but it does work to stretch.

    • @raychellp2838

    Love your videos and your hair. 😍😍😍I did a 2nd big chop in Nov 2018, I was tired my hair shredding. My shower used to look like a massacre. I had been natural then for over 5 years. My hair hasn't always shred a lot so I thought I had to have damage from a either heart, coloring, me, etc etc. So I big chopped. However even with my TWA I still had too much shredding. Now a year and half later my hair is still shredding even with getting my ends trimmed. But I don't think my shredding will end until I have cut off all of my previous damaged hair. Do you prefer this banding method for stretching over doing ponytail plaits? Any suggestions on shredding?

    I love this Method I refuse to use heat ever and wish I tried this before getting locs. O' well I've been a lazy 4C natural anyways (probably wouldn't have done it anyway).
