I always go low and then up to take slack out of the string. I've checked for signs of repairs to the heel and neck/head and there are none. It's as if the strings are always stretching or the tuners are slipping, all of them but I'm sure that's not the case. I'm at work now but I will post a pic this evening.
Again, I'd suggest to check that the nut isn't pinching the strings.

Is the bridge fixed, or floating. If it is floating, is it moving slightly when you play?
