Can you pineapple without ruining your curls? I can see mbl and longer doing a successful pineapple because their backs are long enough to be put up and not stretch the curl because their curls will hang lower but I can' picture apl and shorter doing it workout stretching the back somehow? point me to a video if possible. Thanks in advance; )

I think pineappling was better when I was apl. Now it's too long (whip length) so the hair that hangs out the pineapple has to be loose bunned because if I just let it hang I will sleep on it & my hair will get smushed & flattened. So I can't really pineapple anymore I just do a very loose bun on the top of my head. Pineappling at apl rocked for me.

This pic is from 6 months ago but this what a pineapple is for me now. It doesn't work anymore . The hair from the pineapple is past shoulder length so it's pointless. But for people with more shrinkage than me the pineapple may still work for them. image-1253171308.jpg

This is a braid out by the way

My hair grows in layers naturally so its like chin length bangs, collar bone on the sides, apl in the back. I swear by pineappling, it does stretch but I like the extra length and the curls bounce back pretty well when I lightly spritz with a refresher. I'm a W&G girl...My hair is type 4, fine strands, medium density. Day 1 is my least fave bc its the most defined but most shrunken and least volume...Ill sacrifice definition for length and volume any day.

My pineappling is 90:10 sometimes it works and most times it doesn't lol (10% being the times it does) my hair is short and I will either do one pineapple on top of my head with a rubberband or do multiple pony tails.

I too pineapple in multiple ponytails. I typically use 6 or 7 ponytails and make sure one of them is in the middle/crown area so I don't have to massage the crown/middle too much. And yes, it does stretch my curls but I LOVE it stretched.

I used to pineapple in 2 sections split from ear to ear with SL hair. I never thought of doing more sections, only less. :ohwell:

The flexi set in my avvy was my main ps for a while. I pineappled everynight for a week and the curls would pop back once I took it down and shook it out. Yeah, they'd get a little looser, but the whole thing got looser after a while, so... meh. It still looked okay. I think my avvy might be day 3.
