There's a difference between too tight and tight. I have different size bands, and with one band I can only twist once, and it's tight enough, if I twist three times, it would be too tight, however with other bands I need to twist three time. You should make sure that there is room between the band and the scalp by using a comb to slide between. Finding the right size band for their particular hair type can be a challenge. When I use barrettes, I always use them in conjunction with a band, there is not way Joey would keep a barrette in alone, even his Detroit Red Wings barrette! |
