If you get a lot of shrinkage, and you are worried about maintaining your length. After you refresh your mini twist, put your hair in about 5 to 6 braids (over night). Take them out the next day, and your hair will be stretched !
Hey, can you please do an update on this video incorporating all the changes you've made since then? And maybe a whole twist series. I've also tried to trace a video where you've said how you keep your hair at night but haven't seen one yet(forgive me if my searching skills are a bit wanting) . Bonnet etc? Could you include that in there too?
I just found your channel and I found it to be very informative. Thank you for time and your hard work for researching the information you had given to us natural sista. I know what it takes to research and educate yourself on this matter.
Wow, this is great info. Thank you for sharing. I currently have my hair in a not-so-mini twist protective style. It's my first time trying out protective styling. I had no idea what I was doing, so thank you for your videos on doing/maintaining/cleaning protective styles :)
5 bc it helps when I'm busy but if I get free time, unraveling my hair is the 1st thing I think of. The hardest thing is trying to come up with new styles within my protective style and maintaining my hair while its in a protective style for a long time :)
You can add oil on your hair but, try not to add it to your scalp all the time. Other than keeping it clean, your scalp is already self-functioning and does not need any added oils or products.
I haven't tried to refresh my mini twists because my twists are chunky and can unravel easily, but if I take the time to do them neatly I could easily get a 2 week break... Interesting
My hair is short about 8 inches and shrinks to like 2 inches when wet so when I have twists and i moisturize or wash it, it shrinks really bad. Is there a way i can keep it stretched?
Yes Adding oil will seal in the moisture, Jamaican black castor oil, coconut oil, EVOO, Some people even use Avacado oil. But you can use any oil of your choice, but try no to use too much, a little goes a long way. Its called the LOC or LCO Method. Liquid Oil Cream Or Liquid Cream Oil.
@@kimmybrann349 Nope. It's less about moisture and more about individual strand thickness. People with fine hair will not do well wetting twisted hair.

Informative as always. Thank you. Currently learning how to care for my hair in mini twists, for length retention.
Your mini twists are so neat! I can't wait to take my kinky twist extensions out, so that I can twist my real hair up... it's about that time.
Comparing your voice here to your voice now in 2019, you have grown. . lol

I am definitely learning new things this natural journey.

Thanks @my4hair for the positive feedback!
Howdy! I don't see a link for your mini twist tutorial. Can you please share?
This was so helpful! Thanks GreenBeauty!
Thank you
Love this!
New subbie! I think we are hair twins. :-) I wish I had found you sooner. I love all your videos.
soychelys yes we are hair triplets 😊
Can u also put links your description box please and I love your videos
Amari Turner.. I tried this.. the shower unraveled my twists.
I noticed you didn't use a sealant to seal in the moisture you put back into your hair. Is it necessary, or can you still do it if you want?
Love your video’s
how do you make your parts so straight without a comb?
i think using comb is a good idea, but when i first tried it it took hours but now i do mine without a comb as i shared!
My hair will unravel instantly in twists lol, I have to do mini braids.
What if u don't have a conditioner but a leave in conditioner
can we add oil in the scalp and hair after we put the leave in conditioner

Green Beauty ..what about essential oils for growth?
Tea tree oil works well! Btw do you still use shampoo?
Will this work on shorter hair? I need pointers to grow out my heat damaged hair! Thank you in advance!

Hi should you add any oils after you apply the leave in

Does this work for lines?

Thumbs up, thanks for the quick reply on your other vid, this is very helpful :-)
My hair starts to mat when I do this:(
I was like...this looks like a great way to loc your hair.
aliciabrillante it probably needs more moisture

My hair is super fine. I am pretty sure if I washed in twists the strands would knot up and turn into DREADS for good 😢
