I have been doing mini twist for several years now. When I first started, they were skinny because my hair is fine textured. Now that I no longer dye my hair and transitioning to grey, I love them even more because the frizz for my grey adds a fullness look to my twists. At first I would try to keep them neat by trying my hair up in a scarf and only moisturizing my ends every few days. These days, I twist and leave it for two weeks, oiling my scalp with Camille Rose growth serum once a week. I blow dry and twist my hair with hair grease and the second week I retwist with a Tajib Waliah curl cream, wash and repeat, sometimes I use a light gel. The fullness of my hair has really come through, I have moments I wished I had start doing mini twists regularly earlier in life. Once my twist gets old, I braid it them and loosen each day for a curly look, it seems to revive them and keep the moisture locked in. I steam treat my hair with Queen Helene, alternating with doing a little protein treatment of Aphogee 2 min protein treatment, along with greasing my scalp and hair, my hair stays moisturized for days. I only use sulfate shampoo (VO5 or Paul Mitchell Tea tree mint) to get the grease out and start again. I am a mini twist girlie for life!!! I get stopped asked how I do my hair often and plenty of compliments from men and women, I just smile because for me its the easiest style I do with my hair.
