Twisting FOR Growth Challenge Part 2

[donewit-it]

^^^^ Where are the pictures???????

 

[Jaxhair]

Still taking one day at a time with my braids... Been thinking of transitioning to small twists but the though of it...... one day at a time, lol!!!

 

[TCatt86]

I am going to twist my hair tonight, I've been so lazy. LOL!!!

 

[oooop2]

I just applied my hair mask for 1hr, rinsed, then applied condish. Hair currently in large twist. Think I am going to do this co-washing large twist style this week. It's working for me, and I'm not in the mood to do small twist this week. Will do those on Sunday...

 

[AdeyemiTL]

Okay ladies, I have to admit I have been SUPER lazy, and after washing my hair chose to do wear it in a twist-out therefore only twisting my hair in big twists and curling for the night. I love the hair style because it is so quick to do. Enjoy the pics, because I enjoyed taking them :wink2:.

 

[donewit-it]

^^^^ I like

OK...here's a pic of the current set of twists, the medium ones I was talking about. I pulled them back into a ponytail today, baggied the ends, and stuck a phony pony on. I thought it looked cute This will come in really handy on those days that I swim before work! Haven't decided yet if I am going to take them down for a twist out tomorrow...I'll take pics if I do.

AdeyeniTL, ProductJunkie - fabulous hair and twists! So thick and full of body - I like too!

I started transitioning my braids to small twists yesterday. Did an 8th of my head for 2 hours then left it. Will do more today and I don't think I'll be done till tomorrow, or maybe even Sunday, sigh.... lol! I love my hair to bits, and I think it's grown, as it hangs more now but I just want it to grow longer faster so I can do 10 twists that look good and be done with it. Okay, enough lazy talk, lol, off to browse some more of my subbed threads then off with it.....

If it looks good when done I'll post pictures. Only if it looks good, lol! Your heads of hair look so lush, I wouldn't wanna spoil the lushness with mediocre looking pics... joke...

Have a lovely day ladies!!!

Cute set out twist and where did you buy your phony pony???

Hey Oooop, I got the phony pony at a local BSS. It was a really crappy bss too, not too many choices - but I'm new to the area and it was the only one I could find. It's actually a kiddie pony...the one's for the little girls. I don't know how young girls could stand it on their heads...I could barely stand it, lol! But it works well enough.

Today I took my twists out and the resulting twistout is awesome! I will post pics tonight when I get home. Super soft, defined, exactly what I've been trying to acheive! And my hair looks much longer and full, which I love! Seems like the medium twists on almost dry hair with just shea butter are the winner. Whoo-hoo!!!

I twisted my aunt's hair yesterday. She is 4b natural. She alway keeps a small fro. Sorry pics so large. I dont know how to resize them

Hi..Thanks for joining...I'll add you to the list. I have retained most of my length via twisting. With twist, I am not manipulating my strands a lot. Also, b/c they are twisted, my hair tends to hold onto the moisture and oils. For me no/low manipulation + moisture = growth and retention.

This is right up my alley, I would love to join your challenge! I am in almost two week old twists right now. I will take a picture later and post it.

Thanks for joining. I'll add you to the list. Don't forget to let us know your regime.

i really don't feel like twisting my hair today, but i will twist it tomorrow. i got a lot of errands to do and i washed my hair last night. i will just rock a wash and go for today.

Whenever I am feeling lazy, I just rock large/chunky twist or do large twistouts.....

thirteeeeeen.

I'm debating if I wannna do a protein treatment & clarify today.
It takes way too much time. Ack.

What do you clarify with? I tend to dissolve baking soda in water then pour over my hair to clarify. Then if I am pressed for time, I rinse, apply a good leave in condish, add my shea butter and do chunky/large twist.
