    You actually can just take chunks of your twists and plait them in 10 sections overnight. This will give you the best stretch that will last throughout the day. I do this every night and my twists hang and shake profusely throughout the day. I have 4c hair and I oil my scalp daily to get the best hang time. No bobby pins or scrunchies needed. This method is most effective with smaller twists. I am able to showcase my true hair length by this method. If I don't plait my twists at night, I will be sporting shrinkage.

      I have fine hair too, always loved the look of twists on others but knew my hair wouldn’t look the same. I was afraid it would look too “scalpy” lol.
      After a few tries I realized that parting is key. For me making square parts (like you would for box braids) works best and looks the least scalpy. I also do them on dry hair, haven’t tried it on damp/wet hair yet.

    Only issue I would see for myself with this is, in the morning my hair would be separated in the back, from having my hair apart like that. Id have to wet it to get it to come back together. Do you have this issue as well? If so, what do you do in the morning to get rid of the separation in the back?

      I usually do a twist out and then after the day is over, I twist my hair up at night but I don’t drench it in water which helps the keep the length. I do spray water on my hair just not a lot to prevent shrinkage. And even with not putting too much water the twists will helps lock moisture in. I also take my bonnet off when I shower so I can get moisture from the steam.

      Scarf helps keep the twist laid down and the bonnet helps protect the hair from drying out. It prevent your hair from rubbing against cotton or other drying fabrics we typically use on our beds.
