What does it mean when a string on your guitar won't tighten?

There could be a problem with your string winding technique. There are many different resources with diagrams showing how to restring a guitar properly. It could also be due to a problem with the actual tuner (at the top of the guitar headstock where the string is tightened) With age and stress- the components can become worn. In this case- you we need to repair or most likely replace the malfunctioning part. .
