Category: Transitioning

Frizz, dullness and lifeless tresses are always ready to hijack a style.

Perfect your Twist Out with these tips, just remember - the bigger the twists the wavier and bigger the hair. The smaller the twists the curlier and more refined. Follow these tips:

Define: Tighten coils as you go, this will add better curl definition when you un-twist your twists. Halfway through twisting, pull ends apart to tighten and continue.

Minimize Shrinkage: Ensure length by applying Curl Defining Cream to each section, prior to twisting. At the end, pull twists downward and secure the roots with a bobby pin. As hair dries, it will maintain the length.

High Shine: Hair should is completely dry before you begin to unravel. To eliminate frizz, lightly coat fingers with Nourish & Shine, and twirl hair around your fingers as you separate.

In the end, you can get a great twist out with little frizz. You just have to keep at it. Practice makes perfect, curlies. Practice makes perfect!

Transitioning is about learning to accept and adore the texture you were born with!

First, you must accept and understand that it takes time to transition…this is no overnight process ladies. Natural hair is on-trend, but it takes a little more than just the desire to look fabulous – naturally. It’s a journey full of highs and lows, emotions and “interesting” hair days. You just need to remember that transitioning hair is more susceptible to breakage, m-o-i-s-t-u-r-e is essential on your journey!

Follow these tips:
• Keep your scalp clean.
• Deep condition weekly.
• Avoid harsh combing or brushing; detangle with conditioner while hair is wet.
• Hydrate from root to tip.
• Limit heat usage.
• Textured styles are your best friend.
• Trim end every 4-6 weeks.
Let your strands do their own thing during this process and control with a textured, protective style; try as many as you can, a girl can never have too many go to styles in your bag of tricks. Don’t forget, your job is simply to provide support. (and moisture!!!)

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.
