Step 1: Do you want a twist style?

If you want to do small random twists on the hair, you can divide it into large sections.Pick the one you feel most comfortable with, because the styles and options are almost endless.

Step 2: It's important to wash and condition the hair.

Give your hair a nice wash and rinse.It is important to leave the hair a little damp once you have washed it.Try squeezing the hair with a cotton t-shirt to remove excess water.Don't rub your hair.Don't use a towel to dry your hair.It can cause your hair to get tangled in the towel.If the ends of your hair are wet, you should continue blotting.

Step 3: Straighten the hair.

The hair should be combed with a wide-toothed comb.Start by combing the ends of hair.Once those tangles are gone, slide up an inch or so and keep combing until all of them are GONE.Detangling spray is used.For a smooth comb through, use a Kinky Curly Knot today.

Step 4: You should cut your hair into two sections.

Use a rat-tail comb that has teeth on one end and a styling separator on the other to split the hair horizontally from ear to ear.You can separate the top and bottom sections by using hair clips.

Step 5: Divide the top and bottom parts into even sections.

This example is only using six twists, however the procedure is the same for many.The hair from the crown down to the horizontal part should be used to make three sections on the top part.To keep them separated, clip each section.If you want to make three sections on the bottom part, you have to take the hair from the base of your head up to the horizontal part.If you want them to remain in place, clip each section.

Step 6: The clip should be removed from the first six sections of hair.

This section has not been twisted or loose.It may be easier to work from the bottom to the top.

Step 7: The loose section should be combed.

Use the wide-toothed comb again to remove any tangles that may have been created during the process.

Step 8: Curling cream, curling gel, and hair products can be applied.

The sticky nature of the styling products will help to lock in the style.Rub the product on your hands and it will smooth out the hair.

Step 9: Don't allow the loose section to be secured.

If you want to separate the hair into two separate sections, use an elastic rubber band.If you prefer not to use a rubber band, you do not need to.Take care to not pull the hair too tightly while placing the rubber band close to the roots.Make sure the sections are even.

Step 10: Take the new sections of hair and twist them together.

Left until the end of the section is reached.Apply hair gel to hold the twist in place and allow the ends to Curl on each other.

Step 11: Add beads, barrettes, bows, or elastics with balls.

The base of the twists can be embellished.Buckles, bows and elastics are snapped.It is possible to add beads by sliding them over the ends of the twists.It's best to keep the beads in place by securing the twist with a rubber band.You can find beads that clip onto your hair, which are specifically made for styles like the two strand twist.

Step 12: Sleep with it.

To help keep your twist style intact, wear a scarf or sleep on a pillowcase.
