Help with Senegalese Twists

[naijamerican]

Hello!

I'm thinking about getting Senegalese twists on Wednesday. Has anyone had them? If so, what hair did you use, and what kind of hair do you suggest I use? Just for some background info, my hair is all natural and has experienced great growth with twists (I've been doing it since last fall) and now I want to try a variation of the same theme.

Thanks for any help you can provide!

I wanted to give you an example, but I am having a really hard time pasting pictures. Here are some websites with example(s):

I always have growth from my Senegalese twists I normally use Kankelon (?) hair. My braider doesnt have a problem using this hair. I am through with individual braids because twists are easier to get done and take out. HTH.
