This is so funny, coz I recently decided to be doing my kids hair at home so as to avoid heat stretching and the first thing that came to my mind was the "African Threading". I was also suprised at how it really stretched her hair, especially after applying some oil to the wet hair and threading it. I remeber my mom used to do this as alot when we were kids. Alot of people here still use it as a way of managing natural hair. Am in Zambia located in Southern Africa. Youre doing it well though. Using a long string/thread helps with long hair, if it finnishes along the way, just tie a new one to the old one and continue on to the end. Also tie a knot at the end lie you would tie a string around the mouth of a sack to close it up and you are done.
