Senegalese Twists!!!

Hey Ladies! So I am currently in a 6-month "hide your hair challenge" (protective styling) & right now I am wearing my hair in Kinky Twists! But soon they will be coming out! I will then give my hair a little break & try some mini twists! But now I am actually considering doing Senegalese Twists for my next round of twists! I haven't done these before but I am guessing that its similar to doing Kinky Twists! Anyways I am writing this post asking anyone to give me any tips or advice to prepare me for when I do my Senegalese Twists! Thank You in advance!!!

There are vids on YT. that's how I learned. At least they now look good enough to wear out. Some even thought I'd paid someone. It's a similar method to kinky twists. But senegalese twists use a silkier hair than the kinky twists. you have to make sure to twist tightly and double twist. This means you twist each strand before you twist them both together. This gets the twist to stay and not loosen up over time. Take your time parting. Use big mirrors if you are doing your own twists. Hope that helps.

Yeah! YT ROCKS! Thats how I learned how to do kinky twists in the 1st place! And I did notice that this hair is wayyyy silkier then the kinky twist hair?

I think I like the kinky/ curly type of hair way more! Soooo now instead I am going to do crochet braids........I have been wanting to do that for a very LONG time! I just keep putting it off & doing what I know (which is kinky twists)! But like I said I want to try something new & different! Thank you so much for helping!!!

good luck i just put in my yarn twists earlier this week and so far their excellent! it feels like i'm wearing my own hair..
