And at the bottom of the bow is what’s called the button. And it’s kind of like a screw if it turns to left, it’s going to loosen the hair, just a little bit. When you start tightening it to the right, it will start to tighten the hair as well as the stick will certainly get straighter. So that’s what that does.
