    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 💕

    You have managed to retain a lot of length. It’s looking really good. 😊👍🏾

    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!

      Could you share your experience washing them? It would be so helpful ^^

      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:)

    I'm doing twists for the rest of the year! Your current length is my goal.

    It’s so nice hearing about your hair journey! It would be great if you can share more like your nightly/daily routine or your installation process or stuff like that.
    Also your hair looks gorgeous!!

      Thank you so much for the kind words! I’d be happy to share more about my night routine & installation:)

    I love this hairstyle. My hair prefers mini braids for all the reasons you mentioned. I just wish my mini braids looked fuller and took less time to install 😭

      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:)

    I've been doing mini braids for a while now and they retain so much length! Mine are smaller than yours, and I keep em in for 6-8weeks before completely redoing them

      Hello! I put these in on semi damp hair. If you’re interested, I can most definitely record me putting them in & what I do at night :)
