Sooo I did my bantu knots..now what?

[BrockStar]

When I take them down in the morning do I seperate them? If so how without messing it up? Any ideas are appreciated

Take them down, then just take a curl and seperate it in two. I don't know how to describe it, just slice through. I always seperate my flexi rod/bantu knots, it creates more curls and it just looks better. You can just leave them but IMO they look better seperated, take them down, see how they look than decide. To keep them wear a bonnet/net and they should last a few days

Thanks! That's one style I haven't tried...Now I know what to do with them

Yes, you keep seperating them until you've reached your desired look.

ETA: you will only mess them up if they're still a lil damp or if you keep (finger) combing them, like I do .

for example


instead of



if you used a good setting lotion you should be good
