So glad so many of you are going try this banding/threading-like (thranding? Lol) method. Just a note for those doing twists outs and etc. after using this method, I only use hair butters (no added water) or oils when I twist my hair after removing the bands. If you use a water based product like a moisturizing cream or twisting butter your hair will start to shrink again. Just wanted to give a heads up and be sure to check the ingredients first before you start twisting. * Of course this only applies to those that want as much length or stretch possible using this method. Sometimes I moisturize and retwist with a light cream between wash days and my hair shrinks a little. Hope this helps 💕
What is the brand you use for your bands?
How long does the stretch last?
My Natural Sistas Yesss I Will Definitely Try This Method I Have The Same Hair Texture Love Love My 4c Sisters And I Love My Shrinkage💞💞💞💖💖💖💖💪💪💪💪
My Natural Sistas Thanks for the heads up! I’m going to try it. Your hair is gorgeous!!!
What products do you use to twist the stretched hair so it doesn’t revert?
Process starts at 4:10
Truth Johns thank you so much!
OMG thank you
Truth Johns thank you
Thank you
Thank you soooo much
My shrinkage has my 4c hair looking like I big chopped. Please keep in mind I've been natural for 7 years. It's witchcraft lol
THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE
Lol 🤣😂🤣😂
Adrianna Trinette same! I sometimes think i have breakge because of how much strinkage I have. Then I stretch it out and I'm like "phewww". 😂
NMW Gor same lmfao
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Y'all see that before and after in the beginning? Natural hair is crazy amazing.
RealityCheck1993 girl ain’t it amazing!!
Me dreaming my hair was as thick and long. Your hair is GOALS sis! 🙌🏽
Thanks Sis! 😘
@@MyNaturalSistas Boy I'm confused ! Are you 4a, b or c ?
@Teal Bunnies Yeah, I realize that but I've gotten responses from 2yr old videos before. All they have to do is check the notifications that is if they are not deceased. I have also gotten surprise responses to my comments on 2 yr plus old music videos.
@Teal Bunnies Thanks for reminding me.
Teal Bunnies you seem slow.
Amazing!! Her hair is simply beautiful both ways but that stretch was serious.
Thank you, Joy! 💕
Omg that fro was giving me everything I need!
Video starts 4:06
Khadija 122 lol thanks that helped a lot
Yasss! This is exactly what my hair looks like...my shrinkage is disrespectful. 😊 I do the banding method to stretch.
annettemint omg mines too ugh lol
Ha ha disrespectful shrinkage, that's a good description my shrinkage is sooooo bad that it needs to be spanked, it's so out of order and unkind🤔🤔🤔but pretty!
This is so necessary. I keep getting fairy knots on my hair in it’s natural fro state. I’m looking for a solution and here this video comes! Thanks for the tips.
Glad this helped Briana! I just CAN’T with fairy knots! They’ll have me dusting my ends with a quickness.
Same!!
BrianaBLuvsYou Right! Saving the day.
I wear my hair in its natural fro state and I do not get single strand knots or tangles. These tips might help: Avoid butters (Shea, mango, cocoa) in ingredients of moisturizers and avoid in deep conditioners, use a more hydrating deep conditioner (Matrix Biolage Balm), wet hair more often (with aloe + water or rosewater Spritz), use more moisturizing products (Qhemet Biologics Amla heavy cream or their Burdock root cream), stop twisting or braiding your hair for at least one month, finger detangle only. These tips should help increase your moisture levels. Once they increase, you can start detangling with tools (on dry hair), but don’t detangle with tools on wet hair. I used to get single strand knots all the time when I was twisting/braiding my hair every week and using products with butters. My texture was also dull and undefined. Now, I have zero single strand knots and my texture is shinier and defined. It is about moisture, avoiding coating products and training your texture to naturally clump without tangling.
Minimal Assembly thank you for the amazing tips I'm definitely going to follow those tips
Can we just appreciate your brows for a moment! Beautiful hair and great results from stretching 😊
HairCandy Kina oh wow..thanx.. her brows are perfection...love it.. yesss!! any tips on brows my sister?
They are perfection!
I stretch my hair with 4 twists that I make and bobby pinning them in different directions on my head. Best way for me to stretch my hair using no heat
Taylor Symone I do the same
Honey Ti me too
Good idea!!!
I'm a fan of 22nd Century Natural Woman as well. I've incorporated banding with my girls and myself and it's a wonderful thing. She's great and so are you!
Your hair is hair goals for me. I would love to be able to wear my twists in a half up half down hair do if my hair was long enough
MyNaturalSistas is giving top notch content, and better quality than a lot of these youtubers. They are deserve way above 1 million subscribers. Too underrated for such product.
Black women are magicians lmao this is amazing I’m going to try it. Much love 💜
Don't shrinkage be the truth? Smh...the TRUTH!
The TRUTH!
Gr8ceful Gr8ceful heck yea!
AMEN
It does! Shrinkage is something :) Sometimes people think that I cut my hair or did some major styling superwoman thing. I know when I review some of my older videos and then some of my most recent I am like wow.
That and add knots to it......the horror😱
You were my inspiration to go natural 5 years ago. Every time I think about turning back to the creamy crack you find a way to reinspire 👀🤔 (my own word, just go with it. Lol) me! Thanks for all the tips over the years. You and your sisters are so amazing! Thanks for sharing boo. 😘
I band my hair every wash day it also helps with length retention. And yes like you said less knots and tangles which I love lol! Your hair has grown so much 😍🙌🏾
I have yet to try the banding method. Love the way your hair came out in the twist out 😀❤
Thanks, JaVonna!
I've been heat free for almost 2 years now! I band my wash n gos and whenever I want a heatless blowout!! #teamnoheat
Terri Jones same here sister no heat on this hair!
Love your stretching method, been doing it for a year & have seen significant hair growth! Thanks so much for your videos!💕
If this aint goals.
I’m just now seeing this and girl you got me adding: “get my hair game up” to my goals list! I will be doing this every other Sunday.
I typically blow my hair out to stretch it. I've tried doing it your way, but my hair tangles so easily because of it's coily state. I blow it out after i wash it and then I plait it. I may try your method again, but LAWD i'm not looking forward to the tangles. Thanks for sharing. Your hair is beautiful .
Natasha aka Tash there are a lot of companies that sell detangler! I use Cantu because I wouldn’t be able to band either without it.
I stretch my hair with yarn, basically the African threading method, but with yarn lol Also, I love 22nd Century Woman's channel. Love your hair, and thanks for sharing
Same here. So much easier than banding for me. My hair wraps around those things like nobodies business, which makes taking them out a chore and threading is so much quicker!
You and your hair are absolutely gorgeous!!!
I tried this method before I enjoyed the results. But now you make me want to try it again then do a twistout! Your twistout was so shiny and full and just everything I want in a twist out! Everytime I do twist outs on wet hair it shrinks sooo much and detangling afterwards is horrible. I prefer braid outs over twist outs because it is more stretched but definitely going to try the banding method maybe with a silk ribbon instead. Thanks love 😘😍
I LOOOOOOVE 22nd Century Natural Woman!!!!!!! Her shampoo bars are the truth🙌🏾🙌🏾
This is my favorite method so far. I don't like over the top styles and overly complicated tutorials. You have my vote. Short and simple.
My hair seems to retain a lot of length when it is stretched, so will be trying out this method. 👍🏿👍🏿
You talkin bout someone else's hair being goals... YOUR HAIR IS GOALS!!
I just recently big chopped and can't wait to have long hair again.
I use to band my hair with new growth from a relaxer too. I started doing it since 2001 and stopped in 2006. I couldn’t figure out what I did either to maintain length, strength, and avoid blow drying. I am glad I seen this video. Thank you ! I will be growing my hair back and using your techniques
Your hair is so beautiful, and so are you. I am two years in being natural and just had it cut and shaped, and my hair is pretty short. Not twa short but short. I can’t wait to retain some length to give this method a try!
My shrinkage is REAL so imma try this stretching method!
I’m definitely going to try this method! I usually stretch my hair with a blow dryer. This method looks way more reliable than other ones i have seen
Your hair is GORGEOUS! I’m sending your video to my daughter. She has very thick hair. Her hair has never been permed or hot pressed.
Thank you for this, I have been struggling so much to stretch my hair. I don't use heat at all anymore except to deep condition so this might help as I am still in the awkward length phase of my journey. Keep doing what you are doing, you are all awesome! This is one of my favorite channels!
Your hair is gorgeous. I have done both banding and threading and it's great,but I don't have the patience. For the past 3+ years,I've been stretching my medium sized twists around my head and pinning them down for 2+ days,and I get a lot of stretch.
Ooooooooh look at all that beautiful hair!!!!!!!
Thank you, Beanca! 💕
I have been a fan of yours forever massive inspiration on my natural hair journey!! Loving the stretching of the hair!! Thank you 🙏🏾 ❣️🇧🇷
I've never tried this method but I definitely will now. I usually do braids then clip them back so they don't shrink too much.
I stretch my hair like this: it can be whatever state, clean or dirty. Use a wet moisture, then a cream based conditioner, then an oil-based conditioner (my hair does best w/a glycerin, not everyones does so know your porosity). I do small to medium 2 strand twists all over. When that is done I divide all the twist into 1/4 sections. So I have 4 sections when I am done. I use hair wrap paper from top to bottom around each section until all 4 sections have the paper wrapped around it from top to bottom. It looks like 4 long ponytails. The reason I use the wrap paper is because with scrunchies or bands I always noticed marks and creases left in the hair once it dries, The wrap paper method also lays any stray hairs in the same direction reducing frizz like CRAZY!! Even with my glycerin base. Anyway, this was a good video. Love seeing how others get it done!
I don't band my hair often but when I do, I also follow a method inspired by 22nd Century. It can actually be seen on my channel. It's called "Best Banding..." or something. It's old so I forget. I'm going to have to try that headband thing!
Your hair is very beautiful. I stretch my hair using curlformers, twists or banding to keep it as detangled as possible. When I wear an afro I band it so it will tangle less too.
I’m gonna try! This maybe the solution I’m looking for. natural hair can absolutely be simplified! Thank you sis
Im just watching this to show support. My hair isn’t at this length, so I clearly need to go back and check out your previous stretching method.
Great video. Great method. I used this method two years ago (learned it from 22nd Century Natural Woman) and had the most growth too during that time. I moisturized with coconut oil, liquid silk, and argon oil, sealed with shea butter, and left it banded all week in about 5 to 8 sections depending on how full or less full I wanted my hair to look when I took it out. I cut my hair last year and stopped banding it, but recently decided to start doing it again. If one doesn't mind the separated banding or doesn't have enough twisties to do the threaded look, overlapping the ends each time you add a new band makes the wave pattern more uniformed.
I have been loosely banding in 5 sections, but now I’m gonna try this method to get more stretch 🙌🏽
This is the same method I used to stretch my locks, and it really worked.
Absolutely love your videos! I stretch my hair using curlformers so I can avoid so many single strand knots. After I take them out, my hair looks like I used heat to achieve it.
Deanna Mccloud what is a curl former please?
Where do u purchase the curl former?
Ayingi Kimble it’s like a curler that stretches and forms the hair into a spiral like curl
Dimplez Dior I have only seen them at Sally’s
Dimplez Dior You can purchase them from amazon or from culformers. Here are the links for both: www.curlformers.com/

can’t wait to try this tysm
Your hair is beautiful either way. After I watch this video I hopped right in the shower and did the same method as you. Can't wait to see what it looks like tomorrow. Keep up the good work 😉👍❤
I have lots of African thread that I used once and I need to get back to using it again 💞STOP being LAZY! Thinking about using those bands too 👍🏾
😁😁😁THIS IS FROM 22ND CENTURY NATURALS VIDEO!!! She's amazing. Love the method. Glad you tell the tale of banding honestly😇
If you watched the entire video you will see that I mentioned her and that I actually did this method before I saw her video doing something similar. Also, if you’re familiar with us, you know we have no problem giving credit when it’s due.
My Natural Sistas that's great. np then. Keep up the great work😇
I use the same method and I don't use heat as well. I had to chuckle when I heard you response to seeing another person use the same method. Your response was my same response when I began to watch this video. 😂😂 I have used the threading method as well but this method seems to be much quicker. Thanks for posting.
This is an old video but I apply my products on soaking wet hair, then band it and wrap my turbie twist around my head until it's damp. Then I leave the bands in as I diffuse with cool air on low speed. I have high porosity hair so it doesn't take a super long time.
I will try this method! I have the same textured hair as you and have trouble with my hair. You're a life saver 😍!
Always gorgeous such an ABUNDANCE of beautiful healthy looking hair
You should try using weave thread instead to band. You can get the thread super close together so there won't be any gaps and its faster then using a lot of hair bands.
I’ve tried banding before a with the gaps. When I take my crochet out, I will try this method
Beautiful hair! 😍... my hair goals! Thanks for this video. I have horrible shrinkage and have been looking for a way to keep the stretched look, but the only way I can achieve mine is by twisting it dry or damp and not wet, so thanks.
Pretty I was not expecting your hair to fluff out like that!
India your hair is my goal! I have not seriously tried the banding method but have watched enough videos on it to start the movement LOL
I took down my protective style and washed my hair last week and I have a lot of shrinkage and I’m so glad I came across this video because I need to stretch and twist my hair . I get a lot of knots and tangles when I let my hair shrink . I have 4a hair .
I’m definitely going to try this next wash day. I just need safe bands that don’t pull out my hair.
I used blow dryer to stretch my hair, but now I’m gonna try this method 😃. Thanks for sharing ❤️
Your hair looks amazing!! I have done this method before but not with so many hair ties. I will try this method the next time I want my hair stretched ❤
This technique just changed my life period
Thank you omg I’ve been looking for ways to stretch my hair and it never crossed my mind to use this method🙌🏾
Thanks so much for sharing this video!! I am definitely going to try this method on my next hair wash day! Lord knows that I hate wash day and this will make it much easier for me!!
I band my hair after doing my wash and gos. A major difference in length!
I stretch my hair by braiding it in about 6 braids after a wash or co-wash routine. The next day I’ll do four chunky, corn rows.
I already do this method but a little bit different. I use ribbon ties that I make using ribbon elastic because it’s a wider band that doesn’t leave the big print like the other elastics.
MzKinkyCurl girl you need to make videos. Sounds great!!!
thank you so much for this and for adding the note about what you use to twist after this method! your hair looks gorgeous!
I love this technique it just that my hair takes forever to dry. Your hair is beautiful.
I absolutely love it! I’m going to try it this weekend! 😊❤️
YESSS on this method!!! I keep my hair in a stretched state too! I will definitely be trying this on wash day next week!
I luv the results. Thanks for such a helpful video. I'm going to try it on my wash day tomorrow.
Beautiful girl with beautiful hair; & this was so well presented & encouraging! Thank you.
Ok! You have inspired me to try something different. I have been making bantu knots with two strand twists and I feel like I am manipulating my hair too much. The only thing is I have to "set" my hair like every night to look sensible the next day. I'll see how long the results last. TY for sharing.
Your hair is looking so good! Love it!
Yes Girl it help I will try it I feel my hair is more manageable also stretched out its so thick!
is great. African threading is my favourite way to stretch my hair
I use banding as well. I find that my hair is more moisturized and healthy this way
I am going to try this. I have shorter hair but I’ve been wanting to stretch my hair and do a wash and go
Hello, I"m glad I found your videos! I'm a 66 yr old grandma, and my hair is a little below bra length. I decided to not get any more relaxers when my eczema flared last year. I haven't had a relaxer since May of '17. I'm going to try the banding method to keep my length. Thanks for the info.
Aaawww how pretty are YOU?!? Great video 😊👏🏾
Absolutely cannot wait to try this!! Your results are everythingggg!!
Even STRETCHED fro is STILL a fro 👌🏾 and is Def still Natural Hair. So I don't even think any disclaimers are needed when people Stretch their hair... love your hair sis!!!! 💫
Girl you have cut your hair at least 3 times and it grows right back. Looks gorg!!
Beautiful hair! You all do a really good job maintaining your natural hair.
Going to the store to pick up some bands. This is such a simple way to get stretched type 4 hair.
Girl you are GORGEOUS! Hair included :)
I've been naturally since 2010 and have a hard time with my hair trying to train it to stretch down instead of growing out never did the big chop started going natural in june of 2009 and my hair dries very easily as well...thanks for the video I will try this method next
To stretch mine using no heat & no banding... after I wash & moisturize I make loose pony tails, however many I want then two strand twist it all to the ends...next I pull the ones on the left to the right side Bobby pin them down then pin the right ponytails to left side of my head then bobby pin them down...let air dry overnight ...thats it! Banding takes too much time for me...pulling the ponytails as far as they reach & bobby pinning omits banding & stretches the hair. Hope this helps someone! 😊
definetly going to try this method! ive been using too much heat blowing my hair out so i'm gonna do this for some love and care haha
Poppington!!!!!!!
SheRea DelSol 😂😂😂😂😂
Your hair looks like a cloud of heaven. I absolutely envy you.
You are so gorgeous girlie! Loved this! I’m definitely going to have to try this. Thanks for sharing India. 🤗
I usually tie my hair in a twisted high or low bun or 4-8 plaits after washing etc and sealing with oil and adding shea butter. That's it.
