I'm not a huge fan of twist outs, and the main reason is because the times I've tried it didn't turn out good at all! And I was just looking a hot mess! Now that I've been natural for a while I know that products used make a huge difference on how a style will turn out and this time around I think I had the perfect combination of products.
The two products I used were Carol's Daughters Black Vanilla Leave In Conditioner (that's a really long name lol) and Kiehl's Strong Hold Styling Gel (for which I have a review here)
I simply parted my hair into sections, sprayed some water and added the above products and twisted my hair into two strand twists. I also added just a little bit more gel to the ends and I twirled it a little bit so my ends would have some type of definition. (and it looked something like this).
I didn't wear it down because my hair hair suffers from major shrinkage and if the style doesn't stretch my hair then I have to wear it up. Only because I don't like the way my hair looks if it's down but not in a style that's stretched. But as a puff it was GIVING ME LIFE HUNTY (lol)

ReplyDeleteI am never a fan of twist outs on my own hair. I feel like they make my hair look kind of limp but I keep trying because I see other people have such great results. Your hair looks gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteGirl that's how I feel too!!! I'm pretty sure this is the first twist out I've done in years. I lucked out and really wasn't expecting much from it. My advice is to keep trying and use different products and minimum products with it. That's what worked for me :)
