HOW MINI TWISTS GREW MY HAIR TO TAILBONE *MY TOP HAIR GROWTH TIPS*

[@pageturningpriestess2859]

I started doing my hair in mini braids (not twists, just braids) in 2010. It was my junior year of college and I was still learning how to do my hair. It has helped my hair to grow so much. However, what really amplified my hair growth was my herbal powder drinks and covering my head with scarves. I started covering my hair last year when a stranger grabbed my hair on the train. This was not the first time a stranger grabbed my hair, but this time was different because he was so bold about it. I started to cover my hair because I was tired of people judging me for my hair and because I was afraid another stranger would grab me. I put on a silk scarf beneath the scarves and matched each scarf with my attire for the day. My hair felt softer and I barely had any knots using this method. The herbal powders, I would mix them in water, sometimes an individual powder and sometimes several powders. I was mainly doing this to help my teeth and gums which I have struggled with for a while. I knew my hair was growing from them because my eyelashes and nails became thicker. The powders I used the most were: chlorella, maca, blue spirulina, white oak bark, damiana, horsetail/shavegrass, baobab, red clover and lemon balm. I also poured in other liquids in the water like Ormus (monatomic gold), colloidal minerals and trace mineral drops. My hair may be waist length or a few inches from it but I'll see when I get my next trim.

Is there a specific brand you use?

[@pageturningpriestess2859]

@@christinesimpson304 Since I work in a health store, I usually use whatever brand of herbs and vitamins we have at the time. For the herbs, I usually use Starwest Botanicals. If we don't have that brand, the other brands I can select from are Terrasoul, Frontier, Sunfood and Mountain Rose Herbs. For the vitamins, it varies. I usually will use Zhou, NOW, Solaray, Kal or whatever other brand we have at the time. With the oils, the brands are usually NOW and Heritage Store. If I am using tea bags, the brands are Buddha, Health King and Bravo

[@thelmag490]

I've found that having a good wash day 1-2 days PRIOR to removing the twists actually helps with takedown. The hair is more moisturized and balanced. Fewer tangles. It's been a game change for me.

[@sunnydainn]

Wow thank you for this tip…

[@xtelfolaj]

Wait so you wash the twists, let it dry then the next day or two redo the twist? The reason why I'm asking is that I have fine hair that tangles easily. I avoided mini twist because my hair locks in twists. I currently have in chunky twist because it quick and easy but less tangle.

[@thelmag490]

@xtelfolaj Yep! I wash the twists, let them dry and then remove or redo the twists. I have similar hair texture, so I make sure to wash my hair in a smoothing motion to reduce tangles on the lengths. And I hold my ends taut when cleansing my scalp to reduce tangle at the roots. I hope this helps!

[@franchescaanthony]

Not me installing mini twists as I watch this video. Also, for me, braiding at the root causes more tangles for me during takedown so I twist the root tight and it does just fine. 😊

[@Heckyeahellothere]

Same here! I do loose twists all the way down but I just make sure my roots are tight.

[@JoyBNaturals]

I feel a lot of people still don't understand the concept of protective styling and what it entails. This video makes a good reference for me to make people understand. Thanks for sharing this cos I thought I was the only one who is actually “protective styling" for real😅.

[@janiceprevost4819]

I'm so lost on how you maintain your twist for 2 months. My hair is a mess within a few days. That is with minimal styling. Your hair is beautiful.

[@JessicaSmith-ie7cm]

What is your hair texture? Some texture "fuse together" "better" than others. My hair can stay in twists for monthsss. I used to religiously do 6-8 weeks. My new stylist told me not to, HAHA. So I am doing monthly, like in between going to her. I am guessing since my hair is REALLY course it stays put.

[@Beesknees-bees]

I used to have that problem then I started 1. Stretching my hair prior I usually wash and use African threading or blow dry. Ik I shouldn’t blow dry but it has saved my hair. 2. The parts I used to part by faith and not by sight. Yeah… I had to get serious about my parting because funky parts = funky twists 3. Twisting as tight as possible. This I struggled with. I worked on it by watching videos. Now I can leave my twists in for about 2-3 months before i would be looking homeless by day 2 💀💀 Then again if your hair is very fine it’s kinda hard to avoid that frizzy look. My hair is quite coarse

[@BudgetWithMani]

You should only leave it for 4 weeks or it will start matting bad

[@janiceprevost4819]

@@JessicaSmith-ie7cm It's a mix a type 4

[@CeraWorld]

Yeah same here, I guess it has to do with texture. If your hair is looser it’s gonna get really, REALLY frizzy. It’s the same like with locs. Tighter type 4C textures the hair doesn’t slip out and instead fuses together and thus locs faster and better, but looser tend to take longer and they also get frizzy/loose.

[@theclairgardener]

This was a very affirming video. You echoed a lot of the things I’ve come to realize from trial and error. Currently redoing my mini twists, and probably for the first time I’m not stressing about how long it’s taking. I’m being very deliberate and intentional with every section. And to see how length is retained just from the past month, I’m so grateful to finally find the style and way to care for my hair. There was so much bs I dropped along the way, and I laugh at how ridiculous they seem to be, now that I am here. Something that I am also appreciating is new growth hair. It’s so thick, and strong, healthy. I used to dread seeing new growth when I relaxed or hot comb press my hair. Imagine the freedom in seeing the beauty of new growth instead of seeing it as a burden. This is the first haircare video I’ve seen in a long ass time. And I started my journey when all we had was a couple of message boards to connect to other sisters. You said exactly the things that needed to be said, and did it in an honest way. Thank you for sharing this confirmation.

I wish you would've covered the following points: 1) Washing schedule for 1 install that last 2 months . Weekly, bi-weekly or monthly basis? 2) Install Prep: Do you start on blow dried hair or on damp hair. At first, it seemed like you were starting on damp hair and then you moved on to blow dried hair. I'm just trying to understand the benefit of starting a fresh set of twists of blow dried hair. if your expected to moisturize every 5 to 7 days, wouldn't that be counterproductive? 3) Do you refresh/redo your twists around your forehead over a period of 2 months?

[@ravenna9969]

2 she do a blow out first. I just binge watched some of her videos and that’s what I gather. Hmmmm I do wonder do she wash it. But she gonna make me implement oil back into mines

[@jenaccess4luv]

When it comes to washing mini twists, everyone's outcome is different. In the 3.5 months that I wore mini twists, I washed my hair 3 times and had no problems. My cousin washed hers 2 times and her twists matted badly after 2 months, so now she will redo hers monthly.

[@WhoAuthorizedThis]

Your hair pattern determines whether it would be prudent to wash and how often. I can’t wash my hair because in twists it will get matted and lock up. Due to that, I just clean my scalp and keep my twists moisturized.

[@tahteescreations]

I will use this advice for when I do my kinda mini braids. My hands cramp when I do my twists or braids too small lol.

[@justbeuneik]

Love your hair content. 💕 I l"ve been on a mini flat twist journey for the past almost 2 years. Prior to that, I was on a mini twist journey for up to 7 years. I've maintained the majority of my length. I trim my hair every 3 to 4 months as needed. Keeping ends tucked is the truth. Propper preparation and maintained as well.

[@naturallytammii]

I was loc'd for a little under 2 years, when I finally took them out I had minimal shedding and my hair had grown to mid-back length. And honestly it is due to moisturizing and retwisiting with light products. I would retwist and moisturizer with aloe water and oil and that's it! After watching this video, I'm going back to the basics but with mini twist.

[@Tai-chan.]

I wonna get to tailbone length too. Thanks for the info. I mainly do mini twists and ayurvedic masks.

[@CeraWorld]

I recently just came out of mini twists that lasted two months (yeah I know) hair definitely got longer but boyyy my ends were in dire need of a trim

[@marajones1828]

Aye I'm watching this with mini/two strand twists in my hair. It has literally became my new favorite style next to a good wash n go. It's been really helpful for me in the summer. I usually do a few weeks of wash n go, then month of mini twists, really just do what is best for my hair and life at that time. Braiding at the root was such a life changer too. Omggggg! It really helped with the tangling. And I'm the same with how far down I braid it down. Twists have helped me retain length so much. I don't get trims often and every time I go to a salon they are always surprised by how healthy my ends are! Time and patience is gonna be the hurdle for me. But it's only on the retwist and takedown. To keep the parts I combine the process. That's why I can't do twists all the time. I need the 20min wash n go's to break the monotony and labor. That's why I do twists for a month then wash n go's for a few weeks. Cuz the more my hair grows the longer the retwist gets and I don't want to get lazy and take worse care of my hair. Excited for a mini twist series! ❤️

[@lazygirlfinance]

I retain so much length doing mini twists. I retain about 1.5 inches every 2 months.

[@usainabolt5244]

How long do you keep them in? And do you wash them while they're in, and how often?

[@lazygirlfinance]

@@usainabolt5244 I keep them in about 2-3 weeks. I wash them while they are in, but I redo them after washing. Through trial and error I learned that I can’t wash them and leave them. The tangling is too much. I see other women who can though, so you may just have to see what works for you. I work out about 4 times a week, so I use aloe vera juice to cleanse my scalp in between washes.

[@CeraWorld]

⁠@@usainabolt5244some people say 4 weeks but honestly you can go longer than that if you so wish. Just make sure you’re taking care of the hair or else it might get matted. Yes you can wash your hair while they are in and I guess how many times you want, just do retwists if you see any that unraveled

I used to do mini twist in my hair back in 2015 my hair loved them!! I’ve been wearing tailbone length micros. I keep them in for 3 months. My hair is growing and maintains length but I feel as though it’s causing breakage. I’m back in school and my schedule is so hectic so the braids were so helpful. As I’m taking them out, I was trying to Dr if if I should just lock my hair again. But I never keep them in past 8 months 😅. I think I’m going to go back to mini twists. I like that it can be a longterm protective style but it’s not permanent like locs. It’s just going to be an adjustment. It feels awkward going from long hair to short lol. But it’s my hair and I love it🥰.

I'm really envious lol. Mini twists don't work out for me because I need to shampoo my scalp every 4-5 days. So stretching my hair and then doing mini twists is a waste.

Any idea why my mini twists look terrible after just 2 weeks? I have 4c natural hair and i can't keep my hair in for more than 2 weeks because it starts to "loc" up and become unbearably matted and the takedown process even with detangler is HELL and makes me lose so much hair :( I've been trying to figure what my issue is and i just think its my hair type. i also have a tendency to touch my hair a lot in twists and every day i'll make retwist one because it helps reduce stress of some sort. that could also be a factor as to why i barely retain any length.

[@jasam77lante]

Probably because the roots are not too tight. That is why from now on I don't keep my mini twists for 2 weeks, I only keep it for one week then take them down then re-twists my hair. Its a lot of work but I gotta do what I gotta do. I need my mini twists to stay fresh so one week mini twists for me.

That’s so normal, you can braid the root it helps. Mini twist don’t last long but you don’t have to retwist them when they start to be frizzy. Retwist after 2 weeks at most. Wear silk or satin scarf.

[@JameeWoodard]

@@ELLAWARD of course. And pillow cases, sheets, and bonnets. It is just the nature of my hair.

What is your Wash routine for the mini twists

[@camsmith931]

She has a shorts video showing her wash day :)

[@abbib7347]

Are you washing with them in? And when u say weekly maintenance, are u just redoing a few? When you take them down, are you undoing the whole head at once and combing out the parts, washing, then re-parting? Or undoing one twist combing it out and redoing it one by one and keeping the parts? Lemme see if there’s a tutorial cuz I need more info. Trying to do this the right way

[@maramara7494]

What leave-in are using actually ? And what is your top 3 fav leave-in please ? 🥰

[@TheUnicornQueenT]

Your hair is beautiful 😍

[@mikaelaprim4273]

Is doing mini twists on blowed dried hair bad? Like does blow drying cause more damage?

[@GodiZreal]

Do you have short pieces of hair at the root? Is that breakage or is that shedded hair growing back?

[@pamelaward4387]

Why have all this beautiful long hair if we have to keep it covered most of the time and what if someone like me who don't like all that stuff on my head or hats except when im going to sleep or am gonna be laying on it , im so at a point that im thinking of just wearing it very short, ive tried many natural styles and I just can't find the right fit i love natural hair and am so happy that more of us are embracing our hair If only i knew what in the world to do with it, Sad and distracted 😢

[@thewordsmith5440]

My hair starts to lock in between other twist at the root. I thought it was because I was parting sloppy.

[@lajuodatuwa-omagbemi1465]

Thank you very much for this video, I'm looking to start my mini twist journey for hair growth too, please how often do you wash your hair now? I'm considering washing monthly instead of every two weeks like i currently do cause of i want to meet a stylist to install the twists and see if i can keep them looking neat and moisturized dor up to a month and if i decide to wash in between i feel thw hair will become very frizzy and way too unkept since o don't plan on retwisting till the month os over... Please just lemme know what you think per your experience?

[@talltalllady]

It your hair locked? I want to use twist to grow my hair without locking it

[@ps7549]

Do you wash your hair while the mini twists are in and how often?

[@AmeliaJones-cx4qy]

I would like to learn th brand mini twist and how to maintain the up keep I know you taught me to do mini twist but when do I was then? Thanks this have started my hair growth jurney.

[@neydinehebbert7750]

hey thanks for the knowledge ❤ My mini twist get frizzy and tangle so quickly and i try to keep it in head raps whenever i can and i always sleep with a satin scarf. can you help me plz ?

[@melevonne]

I have long hair, but a lot of breakage so doing mini twists get very messy and they look a hot mess.

[@jasam77lante]

That is why I do mini twists every 1-2 weeks.

[@lashawnabrady7063]

@curlcodeblack. I have been rockin with you for a while....But the sound of your videos are tooo low. Can you make an improvement there???

[@shantoib6058]

Have you tried wearing earbuds or earphones? I'm hearing her perfectly without either.

[@neesiecieslak7869]

Where do you get your wraps?

[@floofyfeather]

my mini twists always look boneless 😭

[@courtneynel7433]

I was tryna pick out your accent and almost thought you were afro-latina until you said you’re jamaican lol.

[@courtneynel7433]

(Still wouldn’t be surprised if you speak spanish???)

[@LorenzDominique]

I had to blast my tv to even be able to hear you the slightest bit. Even on my phone it still wasn’t very loud. Such valuable information , but it’s a chore to even try to engage with your content. 😢 Adobe’s AI audio tool could have fixed this in seconds.

[@beeznhoney4323]

I have a 3yr old cheapy android phone and the volume on the video was fine. I didn't need to cast it to my TV to hear it.

[@DrLolaJohnston]

@@beeznhoney4323I’m hearing well, without mac volume, as well.

[@cynthiaholland13]

So mostly keeping the hair hidden away. . .

[@melvinbuyanzi399]

Jaba

[@sniffleberri]

I wish I could but I look like a wet rat when I wear mini twists 😢.
