Project 'grow out bob' is now in full swing, I'm currently sporting chunky twists or 'Havana Twists' as they are referred to. I didn't use the Havana Twist hair, however I did use the invisible join technique (check it out here) this such a simple and effective way of adding length to your hair as the technique puts next to no stress on your natural hair and scalp.
I used an afro kinky twist hair by Jadore (sorry no website but any good quality kinky textured hair will do the job) I used 2 bags of hair and I'm wearing about 30-40 twists and they are as light as a feather!
As a first attempt I'm pleased with the outcome as I've never been a huge fan of chunky braids or twists on me because of the weight (they look soooo heavy) but this is technique allows the twists to appear fuller without having to use to much hair.
I adore the up do, saving this image for when I get bored of my TWA in like 5 minutes :)
ReplyDeleteI know they weren't the focus of this post, but your glasses are too cute ^.^ And I'm always impressed when people do their own braids/twists cuz I expect it to be SOOO hard. I should try it out.
ReplyDeleteYou look so good!
ReplyDeleteAnd you did a good job. I am rocking Havana Twists & I am on my 5th week :-)

love the HAIR and THAT LIP!!
ReplyDeleteI love kinky twists especially using this technique. It looks like the hair is growing from your own head. My natural hair texture seems to be similar to yours. Whenever I DIY kinky twists, it's always hard to get my ends to stay neatly in the twist. I figured out, if I two strand twist my real hair and leave it overnight then untwist it before adding the kinky hair, I don't have that thick lump of hair. It looks seamless. Also in the long run, it's easier and faster to instal the extensions.
ReplyDeleteBtw, I know your baby isn't featured in this post but I just have to say she is so beautiful!
awesome look! i think the twists look great on you! i might try this out as well because if you say theres no stress on the scalp, im all for it! i am very tenderheaded and dread to go get my hair braided just due to the tension on my head!
