#133 - How to Use Rubberbands Without Damaging Your Hair

[CrownJewel32]

I use rubber bands at the ends of my plats so they won't unravel but I've never had an issue with breakage (Like many people claim will happen). Sometimes I'll see a couple of strands wrapped around one of the rubber bands but usually there is no hair on it. But, I might just stop doing that anyways. I'm just so paranoid when it comes to my hair that I may switch up the rubber bands for those ouchless goodie pony tail holders.

Great advice - I use the plastic looking rubber bands from Goodie - I will try the oil coating

[ConnectedToMeNow]

I liked this tutorial...I prefer to use rubberbands over bobby pins. The new coated rubberbands do not take Your hair off like the uncoated dull ones...

Aha! So when your flat twists are laying down all neat-like and impressive it's because you put rubber bands on them?

In other words, do you always use rubber bands on the ends of your flat twists?

[AfrikanHairGod]

@TheSupasweet Thats part of the reason, its mostly because I flat twist very tightly, but the rubberbands keep the flat twists tight and keep them from loosing and swelling up if I didn't use rubberbands.

[TheSupasweet]

@AfrikanHairGod So that's a yes- you always use them? or a no, i just twist tightly?

[AfrikanHairGod]

@TheSupasweet I apologize, it was 1am when I replied... Yes I always use rubberbands to secure my flat twists as I am not good with nor do I like using pins.

[TheSupasweet]

@AfrikanHairGod No need to apologize! Thanks for satisfying my curiosity.
