Attention:....finger coils....twists.....sleep?

[LongHairDreams]

Im thinking about doing some finger twists on my TWA (thanks LadyKaypnyc and your YouTube videos!!)

I was wondering how do you all sleep on them? It seems like they would get flattened during the night. Usually when I wear a style I don't want to mess up, I do my "hug the pillow, lie on my stomach and prop my chin up" thing . Is there another way? Is there a way to "revive" them in the morning? I just don't want all that work to be a waste.

i haven't figured it out either... i usually just do a quick rinse under the shower... not sopping wet though cuz u don't want it to take all day to dry... i thinks sum folks can spray theirs back to life but i can't

Hello, I wore fingercurls for 2 years straight during my grow-out phase. I would wear them a week at a time and then redo. I slept on a satin pillow case. Yes, some would flatten from sleep, but to maintain them daily, I'd take about 10 mins in the morning to spritz the limp ones and re-twist the curls with just a little gel and I was good. You shouldn't have to do the whole head, I would normally just do the front, the back didn't bother me, if it was a little frizzy. I loved my fingercurls after day 3 because they filled out nicely and looked better each day. HTH.

LOL! girl that's funny...but oh so true. I just sleep in a satin cap, but I have never had finger coils either.

I have a satin cap and a satin pillow case

Any other techniques?

Hey girls! Thanks for watching my video

I just spray my hair with a wet leave in the morning...since our hair likes to coil up, the finger coils are really easy to maintain. You might have to redo some in the morning, but just 2-3, not your whole head.

The smaller you do them, the longer they will last. Just sleep with a satin pillow case (the most ideal method) or a bonnet, not a scarf

Completely OT...sorry

I love the style (in your fotki) with the flat twists and the afro puffs, but I can't seem to get it to look right on my hair

What did you use to secure the flat twists? bobby pins?

I love her hair videos. One day, I'll be able to copy her styles.

Have you tried the finger coils yet? Maybe you won't need any special means to get them to stay. I slept on mine and they stayed and did not flatten or if they did, they unflattened very quickly after I got up. I didn't have to do anything to them. My twists, twistouts, coils, coilouts, etc. all look the same from day to day w/o any extra work.

I haven't done the finger coils yet but I just did some two-strand twists. I did my sleep method so they wouldn't flatten. I guess I could try to sleep regular to see what happens.
