Completely agree! Best straight forward tutorial I’ve seen!

[@TheLovelyPatricia]

Right?! Most people spend wasted time chatting. She’s a boss!!

[@NatashaOhara]

You are the first to actually "TEACH" how to do a flat twist. I was struggling with flat twists because non of the other KZbinrs I watched knew how to teach.

[@dianasmith7104]

This is the best flat twist tutorial I’ve ever seen on KZbin! Thank you for making the video. I’m a beginner so this was easy to follow 😊

[@Anisha..Alayna]

Same😩🤣

[@lucidarose613]

That's a rope braid js.

[@Sam-nn2is]

@@lucidarose613 Might just be a cultural thing but we do call these flat twists. Js 😊

[@ihateyouall7026]

@@lucidarose613 in our culture we call it a flat twist :)

[@ChristinaSDixon-cx7cs]

Step 1: Get tapered short nails lol Step 2: Repeat "Scoop up Hair" Step 3: Go slow and give yourself and your hair grace!!!!! #Success #Mindblown THANK YOU!!! Great teaching

[@AbbieCurls]

Admire M thank you so much!

[@mufasasdaughter4831]

Exactly. This is so clear I have been watching tutorials for flat twists and this is the best.

[@MD-tc5zu]

You’re so right! This was my first attempt and I’m so proud that I got it!!

[@Perplexin1]

I agree, I've watched sooo many flat twists tutorials, this is by far the most clear....

[@mwendapoleee]

Yeah have watched some so far the best. I have got it now 😙😘😍😍😍😍💛💙💜💚❤💕💞💋 thanxxxx

[@srsly07]

LISTENNNNNN. I have been trying to learn to do a decent flat twist for YEARS. Always looked like absolute crap. Based on all the rave comments on your video I saved your tutorial a few weeks ago (with the lowest of expectations for my own ability to follow along). Finally decided to go ahead and follow along today, not even in front of a mirror, because it was just practice - and for the first time ever I got a presentable flat twist! On the first try!!! I am in SHOCK! Seriously, best tutorial ever.

[@AbbieCurls]

omg yayyy! this makes me happy. Glad you found it helpful. Thanks for your comment xx

[@tamalacrowder32]

This comment speaks for us all😭. I was so happy that I actually made a somewhat decent twist! Thank you!

[@comfortokon1810]

[@Langueochat]

I don’t speak English to say that but you are my voice thank you. The best tutorial ever.

[@ORDIESHAY]

THANK YOU! Hands down this is the best flat twist tutorial I've seen. And I've watched a ton! People don't know how to keep their hands out of the way. Thank you for making a video where beginners can actually see what you're doing. Genuinely appreciative 🙌🏾

[@ochezeijeuruamuzie9158]

Shiyla Terry Fr!!! Half of these girls don't even explain what they're doing in their "how-to's"! Truly appreciate someone *actually* teaching me how to do this lmao

[@AbbieCurls]

Shiyla Terry thank you so much for your comment! Glad you found it helpful xx

[@brenylove4117]

Omg i thought i was the only one who thinks this is the best flat twist tutorial for beginners on youtube. Ive wanted to learn how to flat twist and ive watched tons of videos but their fingers are everywhere u cant see what they are doing. But this is sooo damn clear. Woohoo on my way to try out a flattwist right now😊

[@anameyh683]

No more words🎤!

[@PharmacyTechLove]

Shiyla Terry I agree

[@LimitlessBloom]

Saved to practice later 😭😍. Thank you

[@ExhaustedRaccoon200]

I don’t care how long this is gonna take with my hair. I’m gonna learn how to flat twist and do my own hair until I never have to go back to a hairdresser again. Especially since I’m a broke as hell college student lol. I need to save all the money I got. So this weekend, I’m gonna do this no matter how difficult it may seem, I’m doing this

[@50shadesof_Monet]

GURRRRL I felt this 😭😭😭

[@lyfewithjada8114]

I practice 20 minutes a day! I’ve been getting better and better every day!

[@Michelle__.]

how is it now? is it a good idea?

[@angelxoxo8741]

this is honestly the best flat twist tutorial. every other person has their hands in the way, goes too fast, or sucks at explaining smh. i love how you showed different twisting directions too!

[@favouroyibo8574]

Best flat twist video I have seen, she is not selfish with clear explanations, well done girl. I watched the video only twice and went straight to practice on my kids doll hair, guess what? Peerrrrrffecto. I used the finger I was most comfortable with which is my thumb to scoop more hair unlike her using her index finger to do so as she continues twisting. Thank you very much for this video.

[@ZephyrAuraa]

This is THEE hair tutorial oh my GOD. I think I’ll finally be able to succeed at this 😂. I’m going to try this as soon as I get my hair products in the mail. Farewell dookie twists! 👋🏾😂.

[@ceciliaageofaquarius1225]

Damn. Can I succeed at getting your number? 😏

[@ericateamer2553]

I had already told myself God didn't give me that gift but im happy to give it a try with clear instructuions

[@joyliddell882]

Maaaaan, I’ve been practicing for 2 days and still can’t get this! I know I will though, I’m determined! Plus, I really don’t think there’s a better flat twist tutorial out there. Very well done. Thank you sis!

[@myaoliver5234]

i’m learning how to do this bc i get to frustrated when i try to learn how to french braid

[@greenbeautychemist.]

I tried doing it also but it is very difficult not even on my daughter's hair

[@PlatinumCyGirl]

Ugh same here, I still didn't get it😟

[@squirrel670]

Did you manage to learn?

[@joyliddell882]

Nope! I now wear faux locs😆😊 and I love them! But This tutorial is great though!

[@AlandreaAllyson]

I have shed TEARS, you hear me.....TEARS! because my styles never came out how i wanted them. You are a life saver! Thank you!

[@brianamayo2234]

I agree. I have seen quite a few flat twist how-to videos and this one is easy to understand

[@lucastea9533]

okay so i have like 4a/4b hair and ive been trying to learn how to do flat twists for a looong time and even with all the other tutorials ive seen on youtube, hers is by far the one that made me learn it. i immediately got up and tried it and the first time it was hard because like you said, the middle parts are harder to grab with one hand, but the second time i tried it on that same half of my hair and i literally couldn’t believe i actually did it! but the other side took like 40 min cause i literally couldn’t do it on that side, like i forgot ? 💀 but thank you so much:) now i know how 🥰🥺

[@thiajohnson3531]

Same I was waiting for this tutorial and its done with patience so we can follow along...ugh I'm geeked

[@TellHimYourStory]

Hooo, thank you. I really wanted to do this 💃💃💞

[@lyricallen6412]

Thank you so much. I've been natural of and on since 2011 and never really did my hair because my mom would always do it. And now that I am a mother with a mixed race child I really need to step up my game because I can't be letting her run around with wild hair.

[@chocolatebutterfly9295]

I love how simple and straight to the point your videos are without all of the extra-ness and unnecessary lip service that some KZbinrs give. This is the best. Please keep doing the videos nice how you do it.

[@sisangile]

Wow! This is the first video that shows EXACTLY what needs to be done. Well done and thank you!!!

[@AbbieCurls]

yay! you're so welcome

[@itsgodfortay]

Maam. THANK YOU for this video. I couldnt flat twist the left side forward for 5 years literally. I would have my right side twists towards my face and the left side twists away from face 😅 But After 2 tries just now, I started repeating what you said and got it. Im so grateful for the internet and you for posting this.

[@autisticrevolution]

Omg this seemed impossible to me but you really break it down. Thank you! Learning all the basics to care for my daughters beautiful mixed curls 🥰

[@SWiseman]

Best flat twist tutorial on the Internet. Thank you! Basically, both hands do a scoop and grab motion 👍🏽

[@longtaleanimation6849]

Anyone's brain just disconnect with thier hands/Fingers when tryna Twist Up?

[@farahnozzle]

The twist forward is easier to do although I much prefer the look of the twist backwards.

[@melissachipomhi6960]

Yes my fingers are so uncoordinated 😫

[@progressmumba5710]

Lol

[@bennahmbaziira1759]

It's the third time watching but still confused

[@jazoverkill]

yess

[@simsimasgaming]

She is so nice to us naturals. No one zooms in and slows down so we can see what the heck is going on. I am truly grateful. You have no idea how much your video helped me. You don’t even know how helpful you are doing it like this so we can learn. Bless up!

[@ad2094]

This looked so simple and straightforward. Thank you

[@susantang287]

Needed this to help my daughter-in-law and my two granddaughters. Thanks. You have beautiful hands and fingers!

Thanks so much Abbie, watching your video in just one day, has made me able to try this style on myself. You’re such a great teacher. Thanks

[@ChaoticCurlz]

Thanks for the upload. #Tip As a beginner I learned when dealing with curly hair, stretched/blow dried hair adds ease to the process.

[@sherikadavis-linxwiler2851]

Oh, thank you. I couldn't get this to save my life, but thanks to your video, I am quite confident that I can get it now! You are highly appreciated!❤❤❤❤

To be honest after watching 2 hours of learning to flat twist this is the best and clearly explained video. Thank you very much

[@Sunrise-Q123]

Very detailed tutorial!!! Thank you!

[@Kaleshe]

Love how you get to the point as a lot of other people tend to ramble in the beginning and in between

[@westwardpomonagyrl4358]

Oh my gawd, something sooo simple. Is sooo hard, i just cant get it! Did it all the time on the barbie as a kid, thought i was french braiding😹. Im going to keep trying

[@franciscaarhinful6660]

I finally did it after watching thousands of videos and I am so excited. Thanks so much .

[@hiyahiy]

Beautiful. Becky will soon take ownership and call them Swedish twists

Lmfao its tru tho

[@Anisha..Alayna]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@coochiekiller4743]

💯

[@thinkingchan5286]

What? White people just call it twists for the most part. Obviously, many people can have different names for the same thing. Don't even know why you had to bring white people into this...but go off I guess.

[@chrissye]

This video was so helpful as someone who had 0 experience with this, I watched and practiced a few times, now my in laws asked if I took my girls to get their hair done 💁‍♀️ thank you!

[@ladyofwisdom2]

Great video, especially for non corn rolling folks like myself, lol. I enjoyed the video and your accent is very pretty too. 😍😍

[@angelchampagnechildofGod20]

I DID IT!! I never knew how to do this until now! Thank you sister and God bless!

[@curlynella1011]

Do you always braid your hair on wash day and let it dry and then style? Because I always attempt to style on wet hair and it comes out like crap even though I have seen some who can do it but I'm talking about doing like corn rolls or big twists. I can do a wash and go of course on wet hair and a braid our or twist out on wet hair.

[@ashleylong1914]

With this lockdown I'm having to learn how to do my hair lol. Doing it with wet hair seemed harder for me.

[@kkd5972]

for me, styles always come out worse when it's wet so once i've rinsed out my deep conditioner, I part my hair in sections (8 or 6) and cream it (LCO or whatever i'm feeling) and then I braid it. I leave it in braids for a day to let it dry and then i take out those sections and do cornrows from there. It looks MUCH neater than doing it on wet hair. I also spray it with water and essential oils to keep it hydrating until my next wash day (as well as oiling my scalp at each part) hope this helps x

[@AbbieCurls]

I always braid my hair into chunky braids after washing and allow it to dry. Once my hair is dry I take down the braids and then style. It’s so much easier that way x

[@BrittanyJacks-c4g]

By far, the best tutorial for flat twists. I could never do this well until I saw this video.

[@Comfy76]

Cool tutorial ✨

[@dbruinslot]

FINALLY A VIDEO THAT ACTUALLY SHOWS ME HOW TO DO IT! THANK YOU

[@tassekarenee]

There’s hope for me 👏🏽

[@monicakatunga5790]

This is the best flattwist tutorial I've ever seen. It made it easy to follow and do. Thanks.

[@Sunshineblazefire]

Nice!

[@MM-ol3kx]

As someone with very long and thick hair and someone with very little experience on managing such hair type, this video helped VERY VERY much. Thank you so very much.

[@boyohboy23]

It's not as easy as it looks! It gets very confusing when her fingers start grabbing hair and she separates it in a weird way then somehow incorporates it to the twist.

[@LadyBNatural]

I'm still confused 😢

[@yknight4240]

Abbie dose the best flat twist because she takes her time and show up close how to grab the hair together.

[@Justnessafanow]

This is really hard, can't understand why!

[@gutsyassbroad]

U are not alone! I have accepted that I am "braid stupid"! 🤷‍♀️

[@Justnessafanow]

@@gutsyassbroad I braid well I just don't know why flat twist seem hard.

[@TashaxMack]

This is probably the best tutorial I’ve ever seen for flat twists. Thank you!

[@crystaljbailey]

I can't make a flat twist look nice like that in the front of my head anymore😭, I loss my edges after I had my daughter. I'm currently waiting for them to come back🤨

[@annetteebw2843]

My hair is fine and always breaking in the front. Can’t get it to look neat in flat twists 😭

[@scarlet7285]

I love how this video is so clear and goes straight to the point. Thank you for this amazing vid

[@Ron-SA]

This is so pretty. And you have the prettiest hands and finger nails ever. Thanks so much for sharing.

[@cuteyalexia]

Finally 😩!!! Whenever I do flat twists, I'd get one good one and the rest look bad. By saying "scoop up, twist then join" it helped me to be consistent with my twisting movements. Now I have a hairstyle consisting of four large flat twists and in the nick of time because I'm going to go on the road soon. Thanks so much for making this video.

[@tabithaneema2270]

This is the best tutorial cause you are able to see what's going on. Thankyouuuuu

[@deewangui9488]

Did my first flat twist successfully today. THANK YOU!😀

[@booktube_abena]

19th October 2024: I finally learnt how to do a flat twist on my own hair. Yippee!!!🎉🎉🎉💃💃💃🤭☺️😃 Thanks to your video. I tried for six days straight before finally getting it. Thank you so much. The best flat twist tutorial yet. 👍🙌 I started with the whole half of my hair and it was easy once I got it. 😊

[@AngieMusicArt]

This is super extra clear the way you explain it. And the repetition of the actions of how to grab it is great!! Thank You!

[@reccaaddy]

I glad this was the first video I clicked. This was really helpful. Thanks for making this.

[@clericskill]

Thank you!!! I have never been able to do anything other than a ponytail because no one in my life has this hair texture. I’m finally figuring it out as an adult and you made this so easy!!! You’re a great teacher, keep it up!

[@lh8167]

Same here!

[@MamaSoldier]

Concur with every other comment here, this is the BEST flat twist tutorial ever! I literally followed along without a mirror to see if I could get the movements down and when I looked in the mirror, I had done and had a flat twist! (Albeit not neat but it had the right shape) Thank you so much for this!!

[@christinagillam7365]

this is so helpful! flat twists and corn rows...I assumed they were like something you either understood how to do or didn't. Thanks for this!

[@spicexhoney]

thankyou soso much, I made the cleanest back flat twists ever. I never thought I would get this down.

[@EnlightenedLearning]

This video has really helped me to understand how the flat twisting is done!

[@jojomojo86]

I just did the best flat twist i have ever done in my 35 years of life. Thank you!!

[@Slipcxst]

this is probably the best straight forward tutorial i’ve ever watched

This is a great tutorial. I have a 5 year old little girl and I am trying to find different ways to do her hair and keep it growing and healthy. Thank you

[@lchildress712]

This was by far the Best video I've seen to create these type of twists. Ty so much

This is literally the best demonstration, I never knew how to do that, now I have an idea.
