How I Stretch My Mini-Twists | 4a/4b hair

[@RoyaltyAC]

“THICK!!” Had me cracking up and totally relatable. I love thickums hairstyles. I used to do two flat twists but it was mostly stretch and no thickness.

[@ifshesopleases]

Hahaha glad you liked it! 😂

I usually stretch my hair by banding it down with satin scrunchies and I leave the ends of my hair out so I don’t disturb the nice coils at the ends

[@ifshesopleases]

Ooo, that's a good idea! I might try that! Thanks for sharing!

[@esthertjones]

I think this stretching method definitely preserves the fullness so much better 👍🏼😊

[@ifshesopleases]

Thank-you, I think so too!

[@Ribbib-ck6sq]

So helpful tysm!!! ❤❤❤ ur such hair goals!

[@truthserum1271]

Do you know approximately how many twists you have?

[@cjbelonce]

Thanks! I'll have to modify since my hair is shorter. 👌

Nice stretch in both methods. I don't stretch my hair I'm good with shrinkage. Your patience is admirable. There is no way I would survive doing mini twists with my hair at TBL, I couldn't even make it through doing them when I was at APL.🤣

[@ifshesopleases]

Thank-you! Hahaha I've since increased the size of my twists because the wash-days were getting out of hand 😂 I do love that they're low maintenance most of the time

Been having a hard time with my ends in mini twists as well which I find rather shocking as to why they are tangling so much because when my hair was short everything was fine but I tried some flaxseed gel and it's been working as long as I reapply and keep up with moisturizing. I think I'll also try your method along with the flaxseed gel❤❤❤

[@Samuel-Rachel]

Do u spritz water on your hair daily to moisturize it?

[@ifshesopleases]

Nope, I don't add any moisture in-between wash-days

[@Samuel-Rachel]

I use a nylon strip from panty hose. I do two or 4 threading on dampish overnight. I oil them down and it's perfect after a few hours. I also use different hairstick buns to stretch during the day.
