BLACK WOMAN WITH HAPPY HAIR
African American with Very Fine 4c hair - I use these for keeping my hair stretched when washing, styling, sleeping. I use them for ponytails, keeping my hair up and out of the way, for anything, you name it -- and they do not tear my hair out, tangle in my hair. I don't even have to be that careful taking them out of my hair. And they are SO elastic that after using the banding method to stretch my hair out, I just pull on the band near the end of my hair and slip my hair out, unwinding my hair from the band until the band just slips off my hair -- without taking any my hair with it.<br /><br />I haven't really untied the not at the the end to see how that might be useful yet. But I can't help but think that that will be an asset too (No. The knots don't come out when you're using them. The knots are secure)<br /><br />The only draw back is that the thing that's great about them is also the thing that's not so great about them. I'm having a hard time getting such a loose stretchy band tight to hold the ends straight if I fold the hair back. --so I may have to make little bantu knots on my ends with gel instead.<br /><br />I highly suggest black women or any women with coily / kinky hair give these babies a try
