Easy how to: twists
Twists are really easy to do so anyone can learn. Howlong they take to make depends totaly on how small you make them. You can make mini-twists which take hours, even days if you take pauses. Imagine braiding your entire head but with your own hair... it's a hastle. Mine which are shown on the picture above took me like 4h to make, but that is because they are rather large. I would never wear them down because there are so few of them on my head.
1. I started of with clean blow-dried hair, so my hair was dry and stretched.
2. Section of the hair in 4 pieces; two in the front and two in the back. Divide each section in another two parts and braid them up. You should now have 8 chunky braids on your head.
3. Unbraid one braid, the braid contains three strands right... Well take one strand and twist it up. So 1 braid should give you 3 twists!
4. To twist, divide your piece of hair in two equal parts with the same lenght, put a little gel on your fingertips and starts twirling the strands around each other tightly until you get to the bottom. Now take a little more gel on the fingertips as you are twisting the very end. This will make the twist stay if you have very soft hair.
5. I work with one braid at a time, and I always make sure to finish the front first if something would prohibit me from twisting up the whole hair in one sitting. Repeat part 3 and 4 until you finish the whole head.
Hope this helps guys, otherwise there are plenty of twist tutorials on youtube if you need to see the process!

Wash and Go
Wash and go passar inte precis mitt 4c hår som trasslar sig som bara den om jag inte har det utsträckt. Men kunde inte hålla mig från att sporta den stilen bara en gång... Just nu så sitter jag på ett hotell i London och tar en tupplur inför dagens aktiviteter. Jag och två vänninor ska ha det så himla kul på Notting Hill karnivalen och jag uppdaterar när jag kommer hem ;)
//Wash and go's are not really for my 4c hair because it causes crazy tangles unless it is in a stretched style. But I could'nt help myself from sporting this look just once... Right now I am in a hotel in London taking a nap before todays activities. My two girlfriends and I are going to have an amazing time at the Notting Hill carnival. I'll fill you in once I get home ;)
