Does anybody have any methods for a Bantu knot out?
Whenever I do it it does stretch my hair but has absolutely no effect on curls or anything like that. Does anybody have any tips?

Maybe spray your head with water and use a curling smoothie I usually do mine in two strand twist do them tightly and wrap them like Bantu knots

I highly suggest using a leave in conditioner before you twist, when I do braid outs (once in a blue moon) I use my cantu Shea butter leave in before hand, and I apply generous amounts, the braid! It really helps define the curls and keep it no frizz! I would assume it would work the same for Bantu knots! It should be wet before hand because it is 10x easier to get the best results!

I do the following for a wet one;
Make sure my hair is damp not wet
Apply leave in conditioner
Apply moisturizer
Apply styler
Apply sealant oil
Twist
For a dry one...I pretty much do the same thing. Now I have 4a/4b hair so I can take a picture of everything I use when I get home as I've got a list of products.

I apply some hair oil and a sea salt spray-that really gives my hair texture and the curls stay much Better than if I didn't use the dorsy.
