New Upload! #NaturalHair My Softest + Most Defined Twist Out Technique 2014! Xo!
FABULOUS EVERY DAG ON TIME! Whew, I thought you changed your mind about the "Balayaaage" and dyed it black again...silly me! Awe I kinda didn't want the "Shirley Temple" curls to go...5 minute flaxseed gel, wow it's that quick, too bad I'm truly lazy in the kitchen! Oh good grief Whitney your hair is just so nice. When I apply my "store bought" flaxseed gel to my dry hair it feels like it's not doing anything and just laying on top but after a day I can see the moisture has penetrated the hair, but I do prefer to use it on slightly damp hair.
Your smallest instructions are so helpful, thank you because I know better, but I usually pull my twists kinda tight thinking I'll get the maximum stretch and bobby pin the very ends, womp, womp! :(
OH your results are just FANTASTIC, from the shine, to definition to volume A+++ (yes I just graded her twist out!) I don't wear twist outs but if my hair ever gets to this level of awesome, I might be twistin it out every dag on week! Your tutorials are always TOP NOTCH Whitney, thanks for sharing!
I don't have any friends on FB(by choice!) but I need to start making some because this needs to be shared!
Hey Whitney thanks for sharing what will most of us do with out your help ,thank you so much Bonita ,enjoyed the vlog love your twist outs also nice music .;)Beijos.
I haven't even watched this yet and I'm SO excited. LOL!
I have a hard time growing my edges. What can i do to grow them?
I had to watch this again and show it to my mom and sister!
OH MY GOODNESS! I know it isn't possible but can you lend me your hair Whitney... I need to update my state ID and I want a FABULOUS head of hair! I'll get it back to you by Thanksgiving so you can look good for the holiday season, I promise! :)
Okay, so I finally gave this a try. Let me just say, it was heartbreaking to brush out all those beautiful Curlformer curls, BUT...the results were sooooo worth it. When I took the twists down, it left me breathless. It was like, "Who snuck into my room while I was sleeping and put (a shorter version of) Whitney's hair on my head?" Haha! I definitely did not expect it to work so well on my hair.
I was also worried the style would only last one day and then frizz up after that, but no! I had soft, shiny, defined, stretched hair for days with minimum frizz. WOW! I was so in love with my hair.
I'm about to take the Curlformers out right now and twist my hair again. ;)
Thank you so much, Whitney!
Piper Anthony hi, how did you make your hair last for days. What's texture?
Wow! Sounds beautiful. I mist try!
Hey ladies!! (and gents!) ;)
For those wondering, this whole process is actually quite easy! In total, it takes me about 2.5 hours: 25 minutes to cowash, 30 minutes to install curlformers, 1 hour under dryer, 40 minutes to twist! Which is awesome timing for my length, density, and the fact that it's a wash and style in one session!
It seems like a lot of steps, but it goes by really fast. It's just a lot of detail that I have to explain so the tutorial will be accurate. Give it a try one night, and you'll see how quickly and easily it goes by! Also, the more you do it, the faster you become. I usually do this at night before bed.
Oh, and the curlformers are just a quicker and easier way to "blow dry" it smooths the hair and gets it as straight as if I were blow drying it, so that when I twist my hair, my natural curls are completely gone and the twist out texture will be more visible and defined. The curlformers aren't for style in this case, it's a tool I use to stretch my hair. If you don't have curlformers, you can blow dry, or stretch a regular twist out over a course of days. Hope that helps any confusion! Xo!
Thanks Whitney! You're so thoughtful and thorough and it's greatly appreciated! I have everything except the Curlformers (and desired length!) BUT I really want to give this a try anyway! :)
OMG Whitney!!! I seen your picture in this Octobers Essence magazine!! Screamed like I knew you forreal! but to Me to see you in Essence magazine is HUGE!!! congrats on your success! its page 68 article called "30 Days of black beauty" Whitney is #23...Congrats again!!! everyone else go pick up a copy!!!
NaturallyMe Hello NaturallyMe! Girl I got a free copy in the mail 2 weeks ago, I think I hopped up a couple of stairs and let out an "OH YEAH!" I was too excited...and bewildered, because I never get magazines in the mail! Someone must have known there's a natural hair/Naptural85 enthusiast up in my house...dem spies! :)
***** QUESTION WHITNEY!!!! Hi! I'm a new natural and it's been five months and I'm still figuring it out. My question is, instead of ordering it, could I just make Aloe Vera Juice? I have a huge Aloe plant near my house. Do you know how to make it?
Obrigada Whitney been following a lot of your hair tutorials they so helpful my hair is really improving ,love the way your hair looks so thick and healthy .;)
I tried this a few weeks ago and it came out SO BOMB! Not to mention it kept my hair from getting tangled for over a week because it was so stretched and smooth. I actually spread this routine out over a week so my hair was styled for about 9 days. Days 1-3 with the curlformers look, then did the flattwist with cute beanie days 4-5, then the twistout for 4.
Hi Whitney! I am 12 years old and I am natural. I always love watching your videos and your routines. My mom says I have to take care of my hair myself now, and sometimes I don't know what to do so, I always come to your videos to help me. Long story short I'm inspired by you in so many ways! I hope you keep making videos!
OfficialTayy I wish I did that when I was twelve! I put my hair into ponytails until it couldn't anymore and then straightened it badly (with a cheap, bad straightener). Now I'm trying to save up for some curlformers.
OfficialTayy Keep going lil' Sistah! If I could go back in time, I never would have relaxed my hair! You have the right idea by watching Whitney! These Sistah youtubers have saved me from heading to the salon for that relaxer. They keep me inspired! #EmbraceYourNaturalTexture
Gorgeous. Gorgeous. Gorgeous.
Thank you!! seejanesweat
***** If I could wear my hair like this every day I would! Having my baby caused my hair to break off so much I don't know what to do!!
avgscholar hey girl, don't worry, it will grow back. If I may, a few suggestions.... Alternate btw moisturizing and hot oil treatments, and keep your hair hydrated as much a possible, i spray my twists at night with a little water, apply shea butter, hair milk or a creme conditioner to the ends and then wrap in a satin scarf. Also, a little light oil such as argan or grape seed in the scalp a one or two nites a week. I also do the LOC method once a week. But if you are pressed for time you can just spray your hair with a mixture of water, oil and a little leave in conditioner to hydrate. Last but not least, drink lots of water and take a good daily multivitamin. Blessings!
Thank you sooooo much!! I will do this!
avgscholar You are so welcome!
I've watched this a million times, never get tired of it!
When I watched this Thursday it seemed like a lot of steps. Then guess what I did Friday? Curlformers and a twist-out! Softest and most defined ever! You know what you're doing. ;)
Your hair is ALWAYS so AMAZING. We don't have the same textures of hair (I'm a sttttrrrooonnnggg 4C LOL) but I love your tutorials and can modifiy them to my hair texture. Because of you I'm not afraid to try....THANK YOU!
Xo!! Yaay! That's awesome!! LuvinMyLyfeNaturally I'm happy the videos are helpful!! XoXo!!
This is still my favorite video she's ever done😍
I did this and it makes such a great difference! I have major shrinkage for day 1 & 2 twist outs, the curlformer application smoothes my roots and elongates my twist outs! its not a long process at all! TY Nap85
I finally tried your updated twist out routine and I have to say, it was ON POINT!!! It was soft, fluffy, totally defined, and I retained so much length. I got two hairstyles in one from this routine. I wore the curlformers curls one day and did the twist out the next day. I will definitely do this again.
+Jacqueline Hunter I want to try this! I have been washing, blow drying and just doing two big flat twists....wear for a few days (while i go to the gym) and take out on the weekends or if i go out...i think i am going to eliminate the heat and tension from blow drying and use curl formers and sit under the drier from here on out...my hair will also be much more sleek...thanks for sharing! i cant wait til my next wash day! :)
Mic
i just wanna say when I was transitioning bantu knots were life and I couldn't stand twist. But when I big chopped after 6 months of bantu knots, twist outs are my go to style now and this video has helped me greatly with my flat twist. LOVE IT
Ok one more thing quickly, I'm rewatching this and I can't believe you got this WONDERFUL definition with just 6 flat twists my goodness, lol!!!!😊👍
kerducky Hahahaha, hey girl!!!!! Yes, 6 flat twists for those results is absolutely FABULOUS!!!!!!!!!!!
Yuri Boado Hey Yuri! Oh, isn't it though...too Fabulous!
kerducky Hahahahaha, you're enthusiasm is FANTASTIC!!!!!!
- You've mastered the Twistout, the editing & the voiceover. Love you Whitney!
There is a gift in teaching that you have I hope you acknowledge it. These hair tutorials are so complex but simply demonstrated.
Man I keep coming back to this FABULOUS STYLE ...I just can't stay away, my goodness I love it Whitney, lol!!!!!😄
kerducky LOL!!!! Hey kerducky!! :D This is pretty dang FABULOUS!!!!
***** You're pretty dang FABULOUS!!! :)
Rene Cox Hey!! It sure is!! : )
Rene Cox She sure is, lol!!! :D
I always rewatch this video because its so satisfying seeing the curls come to life 🌞🌻
Love this! I tried this on my 4b/4c hair. I wore the curls from the curlformers out for a day then twisted my hair in 7 twists on each side. I got great results!
I cannot ever do a twistout right. Your haircare tips & tutorials are so helpful. Thank you for taking time out of your life to share post videos & creative ideas. What would youtube do without you. Your hair is beautiful & most importantly healthy.
Whitney, Now that I found you, I feel like I can do this! Everything I've seen you share so far is what I've been looking for - the answers that I need, the confidence that I need. I'm so excited about your techniques and your recipes. Thank you!
I was skeptical about using curlformers and then combing them out and applying gel but man it worked! And I liked the tip about pinning the twists. I got so many compliments today on my hair!
Okay. Just want to say that I have been following your tutorials and I try to follow the same routine of sticking to a product that works for me and not combing my hair as much. I also do a lot of co-washing to keep my hair from drying out. My hair has really grown these last few months. Thank you so much and keep it up!!!! I love your tutorials!!!
I absolutely love your hair, you where the first natural I found when I first went natural in the 8th grade. Love you!
I remember when I was a kid my hair was that long.. Ugh if i knew how damaging a relaxer was when I was 11 I wouldn't have let my mom take me to get one. >< But back then I always wanted straight flowing hair (I grew up in a mostly white neighborhood) and I hated my hair cuz it was different.. But now that I'm natural again and I know how to do and take care of my hair I can't help but think about how it would look now if I never got a relaxer. Makes me so sad but I have the patience to get back to that point cuz I know that I have beautiful hair and always have!
your hair IS beautiful sister, it makes me so happy to see my fellow brown-skinned ladies loving their hair(: We are the ONLY ONES IN THE WHOLE WORLD with hair like this!! Truly AMAZING!!
So are you natural again
Our hair is Beautiful Sister! search up Ethiopian women on Google images and you will see BEAUTIFUL BLACK WOMEN with Natural hair and also the cute little female toddlers has natural hair as well why? because they were not born in the usa to be filled and told that their hair is "not good" .
MajesticGirl What do Ethiopian women have anything to do with you or African Americans? Africa is the most genetically diverse continent. Ethiopians are horn of Africans with completely different genetic haplogroups than West and Central Africans. Claim your own, not people who have absolutely no connections with you! Unbelievable. This is what self hate looks like.
TheFedora42 I completely agree with you, but question.... Considering our heratige has been stripped from us, what would YOU consider "claiming our own" when we dont even know who we are...? "African American" is not a heritage. I know the answer to the question, but I'm curious to know your view on the matter. I'm not being snarky I'm just asking.
I love how you incorporated at least four styles for natural hair into one! Very creative and your hair is beautiful. Thanks for sharing.
sometimes I wonder why I waste so much money on expensive products and you be using shea butter and flaxseed gel lol
Don't ever stop making videos you give life to natural hair community!!!!
Soooo pretty. I'm not sure if my hair will do that yet. I get major shrinkage.
When she stretched her twist and pinned them in place she was preventing shrinkage. It really does work! I do it. Try it, your hair might surprise you!
Hey, I just wanted to say I really like your cooking vlogs! I have learned so much.
Thanks so much Felecia :)
CookingWithCarolyn because of this comment i subbed to your channel.... omg the food looks 😩😩😩😩 .... cant wait to try new dishes
Thanks Hun :) Come on over, but I be all over Naptural's channel tryin' to learn a few things about handling my thick do lol
Love the update...I was skeptical but tried this technique with the flaxseed gel!!! I'm 3b/3c type and I Love Love Love the results. THANK YOU Naptural85.
I really need to try that flaxseed gel recipe! Your hair is beautiful and congrats on your 500+K!! I love learning from your videos! Thanks for sharing!!
I swear your hair is to kill for! So thick & luscious. Never have to worry about a style not turning out right the next day! Absolutely gorgeous.
Whitney, you look AMAZING in this video! I love the results.
I love your hair, videos and how detailed they are without the rambling. Thanks for all the quality and informative videos.
Omg!!! Your hair turned out so perfect and moisturized. Gorgeous look 😍😍 you Go Girl!!!lol
This is a genius method and your results are gorgeous but I must admit...watching you brush out those amazing curlformer curls broke off a little piece of my heart...
Whitney congrats on 500+ subbies!!! i havent been to ur channel for a few weeks...love this technique and ur video was so professionally done!!
Xo! Thank you! *****
this comment seems funny now
I never understood the flat twist process and after watching this, it clicked for me and my hair looks great. Just doing the regular two strand twist never looked right but now I have a head full of curls. Thank you so much!
My God what a beautiful hair
I tried it with some modifications. I combed after cowashing and used satin covered roller to stretch the hair. Then I unrolled the hair and twisted it. Then sat under the dryer for 30 min. This is a super stretched, super soft, amazing twist out! Thanks for giving us something new to try.
That's a lot of step for a twist out
Bob Marlee If you want to prolong it over a couple of days, just wear the curlformer style out and resume twisting the next night! You'll get a couple diff styles out of it that way, but I'm used to twisting my hair this way, so it actually goes quite quickly for a wash and style all in one night!
***** I just stick to your original twist out but updated wash regimen :)
Too much like hard work!
What she basically did was stretched out the hair and then did a flat twist out....yeah i guess she made it kinda of complicated. Lol
***** curl formers are so expensive i know you compared the cheap ones vs. the good ones you had some pros and cons about both but.. thats an investment i haven't made yet lol
Congrats on half a million subscribers!!! :)
This one of my favorite hair videos, the music is awesome.
PLEASE for the Love of God tell me what song you used in this video?? I LOVE it! Please tell me! I need to know!!!!!
Just found my birthday hair! Great video! Beautiful hair thanks for sharing!
Tho i dont have african hair or even that much care of my hair , i watch all yr vids weather it was 28 min or 5 (:
This technique is GENIUS! I always want a sleeker look, but blow drying makes my hair feel terrible! This is an awesome solution and much much safer for my hair! Thank you!
Unless I missed it. whats the point of curling your hair first. Just to brush it out and then twist it up? I'm just lost on the part.
Hey TianaSunshine The curlformers are a quicker and easier way to "blow dry" it smooths the hair and gets it as straight as if I were blow drying it, so that when I twist my hair, my natural curls are completely gone and the twist out texture will be more visible and defined. The curlformers aren't for style in this case, it's a tool I use to stretch my hair. But of course, you can wear it out if you want! Sometimes I do if I don't have time, and then resume the next day when I do have time. This step is one of the main reasons why my twist outs look different now, it's really important. If you don't have curlformers, you can blow dry, or stretch a regular twist out over a course of days
Thank you Whitney and Vanille. every helpful.
Well it was detangled,it was easier to make sections,and she said for a SLEEK LOOK while she was doing the curl formers hopes this helps👍
oh yeah to stretch it
TianaSunshine it stretches the hair and makes it super shiny and moisturizing
Not sure if I'll use all these steps but I'll definitely be using the actual twisting method again! Anything to make twisting my hair easier is a win!
welp my hair is twice the thickness of yours and it already takes me about 4hrs to do a normal twist out so I'll just tack on another 3 to do this but I'm determined!!!
Moto Myki Love this! 😂😂 I feel you on that one
Whitney, you're sooooooo inspirational. I used the mayo/egg/honey deep conditioner with the oil co-wash. MY HAIR WAS AWESOME!!!!
I'm 6 months into my natural hair journey. I just stopped perming and putting any kind of heat in my hair since my birthday back in March 2014. There's about 3 inches of thiiiiiiiick, curly kinkies underneath....only a tiny bit of breakage so far, in the thickest area of my crown - the Land of Kink. Fortunately, I never liked my hair dead straight, so it looks natural with a twist-out - just really thick at the roots.
I LOVE it! I'm trying for 2 years before I C.H.O.P. (3 more 6-month stints to go!). Wish me luck! I love your channel.
I'm sitting here wondering what's up with the 54 dislikes...like really
I still use this method from your first twist out video way back. I am glad to see it works great on your longer hair as well.
Love it but too many steps for me.
Did this and I loved the results. I'm so totally a huge fan and watch all of your videos and basically try all the styles you do. You are so AWESOME.
I wonder if this would still come out the same way skipping the 'curl rod' step and maybe doing jumbo twist under the dryer instead. Seems like so much work lol. Looks good though. :-)
Hey ***** ! For my hair texture, it wouldn't be as smooth and the final twist out would be a bit more "crunchy", shorter, and less smooth. So a lot more curl texture would show through, for me of course! But it's still a beautiful look! Not sure what your texture is, but try it both ways and see which you prefer! Xo!
Stretching with braids first works for me. I do about 8 braids on wash day and then put in twists the next day.
So smart to wrap the hair around and add a perm rod to the end. You are a genius @naptural85!!!
J'ADORE TES CHEVEUX............................
Omg, I completely forgot about the partial flat twist technique! I used to swear by it. Thanks for saving my hair and sanity once again!
I wondered why I never saw your hair in your curlformers curls in you vlog. lol Now I know.
snewo Lol!! They don't last too long on my head! ^_^!!
I understand. You do them so fast now that it's not so bad. I never got the hang of them.
***** Try pinning the ends your Curlformer curls with roller clips (the silver ones) to the crown of you head. Place the clip inside the "o" form at the end of your curl, pin it to the crown, and tie the hair with a scarf. The curls literally bounce back, as opposed to wrapped and flattened Curlformer curls. Best part: You'll get a longer wear and stretched curlformer curls. Much love from MS!
snewo If at first you don't succeed...
Seriously though, give them another go. I use mine ALL THE TIME and they are awesome!
Thank you! As my hair gets longer I was getting stressed with the longer it takes to do twists. Your method looks a bit simpler. I am going to try this and resist from cutting my hair...
I love you like a play cousin but that song has got to go! Lol. Beautiful results as always
I was thinking this the whole time it didn't seem right. But I love Whitney so I didn't mind so much.
This is my first time commenting on either of your channels. I am absolutely NOT a hair person BUT, your hair is just beautiful! You and your family seem to be lovely, down to earth people and you and hubby are doing a wonderful job parenting Olivia. Enjoy your life!
It looks awesome but also looks like a lot of work
You look so pretty with this shiny twist out style, just makes you look more polished, I love it.
Mario Datzit And this is what a twist out is and looks like lmao, you been in the dark too long man hahahahaaa!!!!
LOL APPARENTLY I WAS IN THE DARK! LMAO!
Lmao!!!!
I have 4c hair and I finally tried this routine and my hair loves it!! It really didn't take a long time at all and thank you for the details because they actually came in handy. thanks again!!
Can someone tell me the point of the rollers and the heat she is putting on her hair? She brushed the curls out can someone please explain
Nekeisha Benjamin Her curl pattern is really curly/kinky so she stretches it out with the Curlformers and then does a twist on the stretched out hair. For me, when I stretch out my hair first my twist out is fuller, softer. When I do a twist on my natural curl pattern, my roots stay my original curl pattern while the rest of my hair is the shape of my twist, and my ends are still curly. It's just to create a uniform full twist out. It's like blowdrying your hair to get it stretched out, but instead she uses curlformers to use less heat.
+Nekeisha Benjamin I usually band my hair for one night, and then style my stretched hair on the second night. Same concept.
I could give you the biggest hug right now!!!! I asked for an updated twist out and christmas came early!!!! Thank you thank you thank you!!!
How do you get flaxseed gel thicker? Mine is never that thick.
Hey wildlibra84 ! Just boil it longer! You may need to add a bit more water so that it can boil longer and get that thickness without burning and losing all your product. But the longer you boil the gel, the thicker and more condensed it will become!
wildlibra84 One time I put in extra flaxseeds and my gel and it became thick right away. Try that too! Thankx Naptural85 for showing flaxseed gel--I learnt it from you!
wildlibra84 ***** about the flaxseed gel - i made some a while ago and used it on my edges and found that it flaked. Badly. After that, I wouldn't want to apply it on my hair in case id have to wash it all back out. Any tips?
I have rarely had it flake, but it usually from adding too much to my hair and/or in combination with other styling products. Thanks ***** and malyikaj for the suggestions, will definitely try.
***** nice! i wondered too.
This is the first Nap85 video I ever saw back when I started transitioning and was trying to figure out what to do with my hair. I went back and watched everything she had on her channel and learned so much. Still learning from this OG.
The process is nice but too damn complicated for those results
Thanks JayTheGemini89 ! I guess that's subjective, it's all based on what you're used to! I find it to be really simple and straight forward! I've been doing this for a while now, so I'm used to it. Maybe it's something I've worked up the endurance for? Not sure, but to me it's a really easy process! Give it a try! Xo!
***** I also think people dont realize that for coily hair naturals getting your hair "sleek" is more work. It wants to coil automatically. Some coily girls blowdry first then do a twist. If we dont we get a twistout that looks like a stretched wash.and go. THANKS Whit!!!
Edna Baldwin You're absolutely right about this cause for a while I stopped doing twist outs; it literally looked like my wash and goes. Now I do it on old stretched hair, or blow dried hair. The results are so much better imo:-)
*****
It's a great process, I will be doing it. The results are worth it. Love the videos keep them up please :)
I remember when I first started doing my own hair. I had all the time in the world and I was doing the absolute most. Now that I work, go to school, and volunteer...AINT NOBODY GOT TIME FOR THAT lol buns are life.
Gosh I love how the twists look when you take them out of the Bantu knots, so cute
Good lawd! Ain't nobody got time for dat!
This twist out method is perfect for me, ad I always tend to get quite frizzy twist out results. This video was a great help, thanks Whitney! Xx
Yaay! Happy to help FashionPassion61 !
I'm so sick of my hair omggggg
+Dolly Fisher I don't want to cut it though I want it longer it's just in an awkward stage rn
Hey Naptural85, I haven't been on your page in awhile. I have been a little busy, but I just wanted to thank you for your total contribution. You totally transformed the way I feel about my hair. Even though I have been natural for a long time. I don't think I knew that you could have so much fun with it. Its great and absolutely mindblowing how beautiful my hair is now. So I just wanted to thank you queen, for being such a down sister! P.S. Your hair is awesome, I love the new color!
Your hair is so shiny and beautiful!! You need to be in a Pantene commercial, I swear! No matter what technique I use, my hair always looks so dull.
You just saved my hair life. We have exactly the same hair texture AND length. I have also been natural for 3 years but guess what for those three years i simply always put my hair into one low bun. I also do absolutley nothing with it. (I found that with less nedeling it tends to grow) and now that its at a length Iam okay with i think i need to take better care of it. My biggest problems now are dry, horrible ends so Iam thinking of cutting it a bit (although i am not sure), maybe ill find ways to get those ends in shape (specially since i feel like my hair texture zeems ti always have these ends no matter how many times i cut them and put them into a low bun).
Subscribed btw!
Gorgeous hair and easy technique. I LOVE curlformers, they make every style easier.
85 people don't know what's good for them! I love this and ALL of your videos. Hair inspiration, yasssss!
Thanks for always inspiring me to continue on this natural journey!! Your enthusiasm is keeps me motivated, when I'm at my lowest. It's been 1yr, and 8 mos. And I'm not stopping. I LOVE my frizzy curls.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE TIP ABOUT THE HAIR HANGING OUT OF THE END OF THE CURLFORMERS, THAT WAS DRIVING ME CRAZY! :-)
I truly understand why you have such beautiful hair! You really take your time and do so much love with your hair! I am so lazy! This looks like so much work but I have to admit that you have incredible results because of it!
I like the perm rod at the end if the pinned twists. I've never combined stretching & using the rods. I will definitely but adding that to my routine! Thanks!
I did my second big chop in June and back to a twa. This time around I want to try making my own shea butter mix and flax seed gel. Such an inspiration!
I love both the dark and highlighted hair. Good job again Naptural85
Love when you do these twist out videos. Each one inspires me and helps a lot
thank you!!
I love the Curlformers result before you two strand twisted your hair! Your hair looks so shiny & healthy. I still need to work on making your DIY flaxseed oil gel since my 1st attempt was a fail about 2 months ago. Love your twist out technique! I would need to practice how you twisted your hair. Great, beautiful twist out results!
Just when I was feeling worried about attempting my first twist out on my two year natural hair (yes, I haven't tried a twist out yet), I see your video. Perfect timing!
Sweet timing!! ***** It'll be great!! Have fun! Xo!!
***** Thanks! My mood is good and I have energy which is a must-have when experimenting with hair :).
This has to be my favorite video of yours, it has great music in the opening and great hair at the end.
You're a genius! Every time I pull my twists and wrap them around my head, my ends turn out looking scraggly. But I love your idea about leaving out the ends to wrap around perm rods. Problem solved! Thank you!
This is perfection! I hope I can pull this off due to my hair being a victim of shrinkage.
curl formers are going on my Christmas list this year ! I have watched this for the second time already. awesome vid.
Thanks Whitney! I'm trying this technique now to stretch my hair for my twist and braid outs because the ends of my hair knot and re-tangle terribly when I do them on wet hair. My twists are more defined, smooth, last longer and have no frizz. I got the "Curlformer" dupes Magic Leverage by Vakind on Amazon for $15 for a package of 40.
Wow! I've got locs and I'm going to try this! You are a natural girls best friend!
I've been avoiding curlformers because I thought they were difficult to use and took a lot of time.... but after seeing how easy they're installed I definitely need these in my life 🥺
I plan on buying some curlformers soon, both for the purpose of the style they produce and so I can stretch my hair easier. Nothing really stretches my hair well enough for my taste right after I wash my hair. So excited. Thanks for sharing!
I can't wait to try this. I will have to wait until pay day to get some of the tools. You are such a life saver. When I do a twist out my ends don't look as good as they should but I still get complements.
Thank you so much for this tutorial!! This technique is now one of my favorite hairstyles.
