Mini Twists Challenge: Results after 1 year [w/photos]
Thanks for watching:) if you’d like to see more please like & subscribe so I know you’re interested.
This is a short and sweet update after doing twists for one year pretty much non-stop. Great length retention but challenging myself to retain even more length in the next six months.
(Sorry it’s a bit out of focus!)

    I like to do styles like this (with braids more so than twists) I had the same issue with twists either webbing or tangling and I figured braids would be better for my fine hair. I keep them in braids for 3 weeks, 4 weeks max, then refresh them. I usually shampoo every two weeks, and water rinse or use conditioner in between time. It really does help you retain length and to get you out of those growth plateaus, especially around the shoulder area. Happy hair growing 💕

    • @Emeraljmegy
      @Emeraljmegy 7 місяців тому

      It actually only takes me two hours to braid my hair! I spritz the braids with water after I put them in so they swell and thicken up a bit:)

    @chloediggs314 7 місяців тому

    Thanks for sharing! My hair appeared to grow a lot with twists but I want to be able to wash them in the style to reduce manipulation. I just installed medium sized braids with twists at the last inch because washing my hair in full twists resulted in breakage close to the root and more single strand knots. Hoping I get better results on wash day!

      Yes, twaids! for some reason, my hair was also having some problems where the three strands get put into two when I’m taking them down, but I hope it goes well for you as all of our hair is totally different:)

      Thank you! I used to do about 36, 9 twists in each section of 4. Took me about an hour and a half(parting, oiling scalp, twirling the ends). I would rock them for about a week then a week of beautiful wavy fro! hope that helps a little!
