    y'all. NOT kidding, I have to do this style for a ballet performance and was on the point of tears trying to do it for HOURS. I watched so many videos and somehow all of the ways I did it ended up wrong. Thank you a million times for this helpful video!! It's the only one that made it look good and feel secure!

    Love this French twist tutorial. The explanation of how to insert the pins was very well explained. Thanks for keeping the instructions simple and stupid 😂 Now because of this video I think I can do a French twist.

    Great demo! I just want to add, if you want to tuck the end hairs that are popping out, use a rat tail comb with the tail side. You can also use the rat tail comb to smooth the hair after the French roll is done. You can even spray a little hair spray on the comb after you smooth out the hair so the hair doesn’t look stiff.

  • @becki5981
    @becki5981 Před 2 lety +7

    The part about keeping hand there and looping over, I think did it. And the way you show how to put in the pins. You are right--other people skipped over these very important steps.
    I have been trying to do an easy french twist for years. I give up, then try again, and then give up again.
    Thank you! thank you for making this video. I just did a french twist ONE THE FIRST TRY. and it's up, and it's tight! It doesn't feel like it will fall any second. It's not perfect. But I like it.
    Thank you, again.

    This is the best and easiest French Twist tutorial by far, to date. Thank you very much for making it easy to understand. Now if only my hair and hands would comply. I do believe I will get the hang of it with practice and maybe with a few less inches of hair. Thanks again. Looking forward to more of your videos.

  • @fionafornarina7625
    @fionafornarina7625 Před 2 lety +2

    Hi, your French Twist is very good for short hair like yours. Well done! When you don't make a low, but a high ponytail, you can even skip the step of putting the ends under the twist, because they will hang down naturally and will go into the twist, while you are twirling the hair on the loop right over the ponytail base. Also I would start from above to insert the pins, because up there is the most tension in the updo. Then you don't have to hold tight everything with your hands for such a long time.

    I have a bowl of French hair pins, because they seemed so much more easier to use than the American hair pins. My mother really disliked my favorite hair pins, but she didn't use them like I did. I just did what made sense to me. All these years I have been thinking that I used them incorrectly! Even if I do a bun I prefer my pins. Awesome tutorial!
