HOW I STRETCH AND MAINTAIN TWISTS

[@MOCave7]

You actually can just take chunks of your twists and plait them in 10 sections overnight. This will give you the best stretch that will last throughout the day. I do this every night and my twists hang and shake profusely throughout the day. I have 4c hair and I oil my scalp daily to get the best hang time. No bobby pins or scrunchies needed. This method is most effective with smaller twists. I am able to showcase my true hair length by this method. If I don't plait my twists at night, I will be sporting shrinkage.

[@Netra06]

Thank you for the suggestion. I will definitely try this one day

[@tammyjohnson7341]

Would love to see a picture.

[@byrondial7234]

Ima try this

[@KaylaCheree_]

OMG finally 4c hair YESSS! thx for the amazing comment!!

[@mrw0486]

Profusely huh

[@weoutside.726]

Shrinkage is a struggle even with protective styles 😭

[@chezjanita4460]

I have so much trouble with shrinkage when it comes to my twists...thank you so much for the video

[@mtreadful]

If my twists looked like hers I would definitely wear mine out all the time

[@carolebroderick1595]

You are beautiful and your hair is beautiful, too. Your method to hold the twist makes a lot of sense!

[@shanitathomas2021]

These look GORGEOUS on you. That beautiful heart shaped face. Perfect summer style!

[@mirandadavis8877]

It is years later and I am just now seeing this (lol) but I love these tips! Thanks for sharing! I will definitely try this method.

[@mateka7582]

Thank you for this! I just did twists on my hair for the first time and go to the gym Monday through Friday. I was trying to figure out how I would style it for working out! You just showed me how to wear it to bed and in the gym! 💃🏾

[@marlak4203]

Thank you. I've banded them before but never thought to pin them down. That helps keep them stretched out.

[@dianewalcott706]

Hi I tried ur stretching method n night time routine n I really like it cuz my hair also has a way of strinking when it’s in twist but since I started the stretching method it have my hair feeling all nice n stretched in the morning so thanks for sharing your method n keep up the good work

[@cinderellafromtheblock6096]

I love this style but my hair is more on the finer side so I feel a little self conscious about it not looking as full idk

[@armellegrace1815]

Same 😄Also afraid to look weird with them. But if we don't try we will never know

[@skelatori]

I have fine hair too, always loved the look of twists on others but knew my hair wouldn’t look the same. I was afraid it would look too “scalpy” lol. After a few tries I realized that parting is key. For me making square parts (like you would for box braids) works best and looks the least scalpy. I also do them on dry hair, haven’t tried it on damp/wet hair yet.

[@SunflowerGoddezz]

My hair is also fine but it actually looks fuller once I found out a pattern to make them look fuller

[@alli27us1]

Good job... I know this is a little bit of an old video, but I like it. I just twisted my hair early this afternoon and I will try that tomorrow night.

[@loveannrodrigues6659]

Just finish twisting my hair , this was So helpful 😊 thank you for sharing

[@michaelstorayii7197]

Thank you! This is a simple yet effective method to implement as a night routine that works!

[@stringbean7277]

Love your twist first of all😍😍😍 and your nightly routine simple to the point and especially not over whelming...thank you!!!

[@mik7564]

Thanks Sis! I knew to stretch it, but wasn't sure how. This is a great idea that I'm going to give a try.

[@samjones7364]

How did your hair come out??

[@bethanys8841]

Hi I love your twist. I keep my hair in twist 97% of the time and I was wondering if you have a video turtorial for these twist. If not that's ok just wondering. Have a nice day. Oh and what is your hair type please and thank you

[@mo0fahsaaa]

Girl, THANK YOU for this video. I got passion twists for the first time and thought I was crazy about the shrinkage, I felt like a poodle. I’m about to stretch then tonight

[@CurlFriendAri]

You're so welcome! 😊🙌🏾

[@karenleftwich2357]

Thanks for that awsome tip...been trying to figure out how to stretch them out now I got it thanks a bunch 😉

[@NaturalLotusFarm]

I just made a video like this and I added beads! Your video just popped up on my feed! I wish that I would have watched your video before hand!! You look beautiful!!!! 🤗

[@darianh6236]

Your hair doesn’t have dents in them in the morning with using the hair ties?

[@chiannegibbs9462]

Thats what I wondered too

[@darianh6236]

@JaNae Gibbs I tried it and it didn’t dent up my hair. So this technique does work 😊

[@mej2255]

@@darianh6236 my hair is short it made my hair sort of wavy

[@jordynedwards6985]

can you do a video on different hairstyles for your twists?

[@CurlFriendAri]

+Jordyn Edwards Yes! I will make one.

[@Longqibeauty]

Love your amazing review ,it gives great help to many people.

[@heavenorwilliams8609]

Thank you….I use Shea Moisture Curling Gel Souffle when twisting my hair. I believe this is what causes my shrinkage I’m okay with it but I’ve never used the ponytail holders before will give a try. Thanks again

[@s.k.t.7857]

Seeing these kinds of videos makes me realize hoe unhealthy my hair is. Her hair looks damn near relaxed. I would have dents all in my twists from those bands

[@awhalen4821]

[@curlynella1011]

Will your hair be too stretched with stretching on wet hair? I know you said that it was damp

[@murielmorrow4306]

Thank you so much for sharing!

[@michaylatheresa95]

Thank you for this video 👑💛✨✨

[@kyp6184]

Is this done on wet hair?

[@fabelsounds]

Only issue I would see for myself with this is, in the morning my hair would be separated in the back, from having my hair apart like that. Id have to wet it to get it to come back together. Do you have this issue as well? If so, what do you do in the morning to get rid of the separation in the back?

[@loveourworldproductions6640]

You could part it in three sections two halves and then a section at the top but going back so when you take it out it should more easily cover

[@fabelsounds]

@@loveourworldproductions6640 Thank you, thats what I been doing. Or I just put them in one ponytail and do your method. Thanks again for the info and for responding. I know you got some time now cause of Quarantine lol. Peace.

[@sheisomarica]

I find this really helpful, thank you. Please is there any alternative to castor oil?

[@dajourmayo4389]

Vitamin E oil is great it does the same thing castor oil does and you could pick it up at the dollar store or hair beauty store

[@maircehtaheallosethefear107]

Think your hair is cute also in the banding. You look like Pippie Long Stocking. I have to try that look.

[@Mgphotography964]

How long your hair been stretch out with your mini twist?

[@1965paw]

Why not leave them loose first and add the contents and then seperate them.

When I do this my hair tightens and frizzes the next day, please explain lol

[@qveenora3]

Mine be that long when I twist it but it don't stay like that it likes to strink

[@mrw0486]

I always have the same problem, what I did this time was over moisturized my hair with moisturizers and oils two days before I did them, let my hair dry and combed it out. Applied very little gel to my ends and did pretty much what she does at night or I pull them all the way back and with a headband I band them all the way to my ends and just wear it like that till I'm ready to wear them out. U gotta play around with techniques hope this helps a lil

[@taymay4894]

I try to band but the hair ties make bends in my hair.. How can I fix tht?? Plz help

[@PriscillaAppeaning]

use thread x

[@renewedimageyfs]

Hi! How big are your sections? Try changing this and make sure you pull the hair (stretch it) smoothly while banding
