I need to hear from all Kinky twist wearers. How do you wash your hair and keep it looking nice and neat.
TIA

This is how I wash mine too. I spray a leave in conditioner in my hair after they've airdried for about an hour.i have kinky twists in now, and i've been continuing to wash them once a week. having twists that are nice and neat are all well and good but paying attention to the hair and scalp underneath comes first...
I usually just wash it with the twists out, and gently massage shampoo on the scalp, and then put some condi and water on a sponge and squeeze it through the upper part of the braids (but below the part where it grips onto my own hair at the scalp). after that i rinse, and then come out of the shower. the twists will be all droopy and with less curl, but to fix that I just tie them together (in like 7 or 8 sections) around each other while still wet and leave it in to dry. if they're still not curly afterwards, i retie them, dip the ends in boiling water, and then undo them.
I wash mine within a week.How long do you all wait before you wash them. Will this work on Senegalese twists?
Section the twists into like, 5-7 sections, use a band to ties up the ends, so that they don't unravel. Then, hop in the shower, wet your hair, put some shampoo on your finger tips, and rub it on the scalp NOT THE ENDS...then rinse. Don't rub or manipulate the ends of the twists, just concentrate on your scalp.
Or, you can us a dry cleaning solution like ORS Herbal Cleanse Dry Shampoo.

Anyone here use human hair for their Kinky twists?
I'm curious, I've been discouraged from doing this, by the few "professionals" I've interviewed to do mine.

I did before in 2001. I bought the hair at Lugo's in Brooklyn. 55 dollars an ounce and i needed 5 ounces to do my hair. It looked great. but lawd it was expensive then I had to pay for the labor.In the end it was not worth it. I find that the Human hair contributed to extremely dry and trashy hair. I will never do that again. This is what it looked like: http://public.fotki.com/Closer1/recent-proctive-styles/emotions-vi.html
What about only cleaning your scalp?
