Shrinkage is a natural feature of kinky-curly-coily hair, but with shrinkage usually comes more knots and tangles than we’d like.
As my hair started inching out of the TWA stage, it became really important to stretch after a wash.

well because my hair is at its awkward stage in terms of length (1 yr naturalista), i cant do anything chunky, and i don’t have the patience for small twists or bantu knots all the time. I just blow dry or let the hair be. Great blog! pls stop by mine! Thanks babe.

I like stretching my hair through my twist outs when I have time to do it over the course of a few days. Otherwise I band it.

With about 4.5 inches of hair, It’s banding all the way!!! it’s just so super easy and fast and also saves me all that dryness I get from blow-drying. My hair just doesn’t agree with a blow dryer… or maybe It’s just me. I’d be glad if you could make a post on some blow-drying tips.

Hello, ah shrinkage!! The sign of well preserved hair. I just put my hair in twists and end it there! Lol but when I am going for a style that requires volume I thread my hair.

Gotta love that shrinkage lol. Twisting my hair is the easiest way for me to stretch it with it being in a short cut.
