    If you're experiencing too much tension as the hairstyle is getting done then make sure your hairdresser is aware so they can adjust. However, if this is after the hairstyle is done, then try to not wear your hair in a high ponytail but in a low one. If possible, for the first week or so, let your hair down so there is no added tension.
