Absolutely 💯

I give it a 10/ 10. You slayed his hair. Hell I want my hair twisted like that. His hair looks amazing

[@BlessedMoma.]

No doubt!

[@pdiddy1655]

10 out of 10. My Son hair is nice and thick like that but if I don't use clamps at the end for a stretch his whole twist will curl. I'm going to try it exactly how you did it to see what happens. It will probably save me some time. Clamping the root and the end takes me forever. I'm not a hairdresser by no means.. I just know how to do two strand twist because when covid hit, I'm the one who kept them looking decent. I became the hair dressor. LOL 😂

This is how I twist my hair. When I want to wear a twist out I unravel the twist part and leave the roots braided so later that night or a few days later the parts are still in tact and I can twist it right back up.

You is smart

Parting without the product first definitely helps me. Adding the product give it the salon finish!

I give it a 10+. I liked your technique of making the parts first, then going in and doing the twists. Very effective and efficient.

For anyone doing twists for the first time, go in the direction that is comfortable for you. As you get more comfortable, try the other direction. This goes for flat braid twists as well.

[@QTheBraider]

Great Advice?

[@latonyanewton4421]

Great advice

NFR. There's no right or wrong way to twist. Just do what's comfortable for you.

[@temekawright9297]

Why are you suggesting alternating? What's the benefit?

[@4cassilyfe]

@temekawright9297 Not everyone has the same natural flow in doing hair. We are either left or right handed. Either direction will get the same hair style.

By far the BEST two strand tutorial PERIOD. You do such a great job explaining WHAT and WHY. This will take my two strand styles to another level. I knew to start with 3strands but you taught ALOT more than just two stranding lol. The brick layered parts, the smoothing to create a clean look, doing the 3strands all over THEN going back to 2 strand them all... I just loved this tutorial!❤ You have a new subscriber in me shugah...keep teachin, I'm listening!!😂

Being able to braid African hair specifically is such an underrated skill, to me it’s like when someone knows two languages if that makes sense? Like seriously you have to be an intelligent individual to know how to braid hair part and all the little products pieces everything down to a T is just so impressive! My daughter is mixed so I just now started to learn how to do French braids so now I know how to do a French braid, but it’s kind of hard on her hair because her roots are a little straighter compared to the end of her hair, which are a little more frizzy!

Such a great tutorial! And I love that your personality came through as well. “Just keep twisting! Just keep twisting!”😊

[@MsRastaV]

I absolutely love everything you did with the exception of placing the jar on the clients head. Please excuse me. I come from a licensed cosmetologist background of client protection. The jar on the head could introduce germs,bacteria, or fungus to the hair and scalp if the jar wasn’t at least sanitized first. Dipping in the jar and applying it to his head (unless that’s his personal jar of jam), poses the same risk. The potential of the jar falling and hitting him in the face or product spillage, etc. it just wasn’t very etiquette friendly; he’s not a table or stand… lol. Between the two of you, y’all balanced that jar without it falling unless it was edited out. But girl, you do your thing. It looked so good! Great job!

[@angelenanieves4115]
