→Non-locking tuners
Make sure the string is in the appropriate nut groove and string tree if applicable. Start tightening the string by turning the tuning peg. Again, make sure each wind goes under the previous one. The tension should start forcing your right hand pinky to get closer and closer to the fretboard. Once it is no longer needed to maintain tension, you can let go of the string. Now make sure you have a reference pitch or are using a tuner to prevent over-tightening.
If you have a locking nut, don't clamp the strings yet. Wait until all strings have been replaced and they are all in-tune.
