    What methods do you use to stretch your hair?

    • @fantasticfavour
      @fantasticfavour Před 6 lety +48

      CentricSista I use mostly the threading and braids works well for me.

    • @chemirem.3934
      @chemirem.3934 Před 6 lety +24

      CentricSista blow drying. All the time. But now I use the instyler comb. Once my hair has been partially stretched with braids. I just press the comb on top of the hair. I don’t comb it through cuz it can straighten the hair. I press it for like five seconds and move don the strand. It is so fast! I swear. Perfectly stretched hair in to minutes. It’s awesome for emergency hair fixes. And none of the sweating associated with a blow dry.

    Love your channel! The yarn draws moisture out of your hair. It's like wearing a wool hat/scarf. The equivalent to wrapping your hair in a sweater or cotton fabric. They sell plastic threads that you can use for stretching without the moisture loss and stiffness that yarn and cotton threads will create. You can also sit under the dryer to speed drying time with no issue.
