Are french twists the same as french braids? If so, then it is easy depending on the length & thickness. At my length, two french braids on each side of my head are pretty easy to do. If I want one french braid, then it helps to straighten my hair a bit by either using heat or various stretching methods.
I believe french twists are totally different than braids. I am clueless as to how to do it myself. It's something to do with twisting and rolling and pinning. Lol!
I just reread your post & realized what you were talking about! I've never tried a french twist on natural hair, but I think someone would need a fair amount of length to avoid too much tension on the sides.
When I learn how to take pics of my hair, I'll share my French Twist with you. In the meantime, I thought someone did post a pic in the past. I'll see if I can find it...
Here is one picture of a French Twist that I love wearing! It makes shorter hair look fuller and longer and ultra-long hair can wear this style too. Those with natural hair should be able to wear this also.
A front view with a tendril or two down the sides. I prefer tendrils that swirl or twist, rather than straight ones.
A more casual French Twist with some hair down the side.
The link for these styles and along with many variations of French Twists that I would love to try (like with the hair sticks)
