Twists seem to help with hair stretching.

When you do the twist/plaits pull the hair back into a braided pony tail then let air dry - If not one then two/four?

Sleep/wear a satin scarf around the edges as a headband to smooth edges - It keeps me from brushing/gel. Cornrowing semi damp hair helps too.

Banding is great for stretching hair without heat. Here's a vid on it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0CnsAo3_E9c
