Knock Out Two-Strand Twists

0 Comments

Double strand twists are simple, carefree, and a great way to give your hair a break from the wear and tear of everyday styling. You can enjoy your twists for a few days, a few weeks, or untwist for a wonderful twist out with soft waves. It’s a great way to show off the beautiful that gorgeous texture that you have been blessed with!

  1. Prep hair by washing with Hydrating Invigorating SLS-Free Shampoo, conditioning with Nutrient Replenishing Conditioner, gently towel dry hair to remove extra water, and misting lightly with Revitalizing Leave-In Conditioner.
  2. Hair should be damp but not saturated as you separate the hair into sections to be twisted, make sure that the sections are as uniform as possible. (try using a rat-tail comb for creating even parts)
  3. Finger comb each individual section before twisting, working Twist & Lock through each section to provide a light, non-sticky hold.
  4. Divide each section into two, equal parts and begin to twist each section of hair around the other until you reach the ends. Twist in the same direction for each section expect around your face where you may want to twist back and away from your face.
  5. Spritz ends lightly with Natural Hold Spray Gel, hold firmly between two finger, and gradually release pressure – twists will loosen and settle on their own.


Please note that two strand twists styles work best on natural hair, the curly or coily ends helps to secure the twists for longer wear.
