Protective Styling....A New Twist on Twists [pic + video tutorial]

Girl, that style is hot!

Actually those are flat twists. They are the comeplete opposite of cornrows in the sense that no matter how tight you try to do them, it will not result in tightness on your head, only neatness. Also, the Shea butter used also moisturizes strands at the root to avoid any hair breakage while twisting. Not one hair broke due to twisting.

well people can break their hair when they do flat twists. and they can get crazy tight. it really just depends on the person and the product. never underestimate a determined stylist or a heavy handed mom with some gel. They will pull them eyebrows back.

Yours are really nice though. You should work at a natural salon I really like your styles they are really clean and precise you're really good at it
