Ok, so I've tried before to install senegalese twists on my own but it didn't work out. Today, I tried again. I deep conditioner my hair yesterday, stretched my hair on low heat, and at 8 o'clock this morning I got to work. It's not 7:13 and I haven't finished my hair yet.
I'm having issues with stretching the hair--when I try to feather the tips the hair gets really knotty and tangly and I lose a lot of the braiding hair try to comb out the tangles. Luckily I got 4 packs of x-pression braiding hair, so I have a lot of hair to work with. Any who, because the hair is so tangly, when I try to twist my hair the twists have hair poking out of it and its not as smooth as I would like it to be
Secondly, I for the life of me cannot get my twists to be tight. I know they're not supposed to be super tight, but they're very loose and if I were to tug at a twist it would slip right out my hair and its not like my hair is fine--it's pretty coarse. Its like Im having trouble holding the braiding hair against my scalp and as im twisting I feel it slipping...could using too much moisturizer on the hair be causing this?
I wanted a cute protective style and Im getting very discouraged right now...any tips?
