I am Dominican and Cuban, despite my fair complexion and bright red hair. Which really makes me stand out amongst my family, although we do all have the same hair type! Very thick curly hair. It really caught me off guard growing up when members of my family would straighten my hair in attempt to tame it, or refuse to teach me how to twist and braid because “I have white people hair” because well... our hair is very much the same aside from its color, so for many years I was silently ashamed to do things for the health and comfort of my hair as I didn’t want to offend my family members. Thank you for teaching a 23 year old how to do her hair the right way, the way you should if you have curls. You don’t know how much I truly appreciate this! Vaya con Dios!
@@luna39900 what? did you even read the post. they where saying because they were lightskin with red hair there family tried to assimilate them and never taught them how to do their hair which made them feel uncomfortable with their hair. so yeah obviously that part is relevant. you mad asl.
@@luna39900 ??? Her skin colour is very relevant to this? They told her that because she looks white, her hair has to be white as well even though she had the same texture as them. You need to get over yourself, just getting antagonized over nothing.
I am 13 yrs old....i wanted to learn how to twist my own hair.... This video helped me out because the first time I watch it I learn how to twist my own hair.... Thank you
Now I see why my twists are not tightened enough. I haven’t been twisting separately before twisting them together. Thanks for the video. I will save it for next time since I only twisted my kids’ hair yesterday.
I finally found a video that explained the actual twisting part slowly. Twist clockwise with one hand and the other counterclockwise. Thank you so much
This technique is blowing my mind! After being natural for over a decade, I finally now know the proper way to get a smooth twist! This is life changing. Thank you so much for taking the time to share ! ❤❤❤
Thank you again for this video, i've understood it very well. As I am a teenager and in like 2 years I will be going abroad for college it will be difficult for me to find suitable afro hair salon and also it will be expensive so knowing hw to braid my hair will be useful not only for college but even now when I want to go to school or my everyday basis
wow cant believe you did this on your own ,well done most people cant twist their own hair but you got a blessing from God .great work with the twist love the tutorial
this tutorial was surprisingly way easier than I thought, thank you so much for the simple yet effective explanation. this is my first time twisting and I got the hang of it quickly but I need some practice. thank you for saving me bc I needed my hair done for school lol
Best explanation ever, l watched a lot of videos but they didn't talk about the technique of grabing the hair with two fingers and crossing that l really needed to understand. Thank you sis
Thanks for this video im a guy with straight hair and alsways found it very difficult for my hairtype but then i found your videos and now i can twist it with no problems 😄
Thank you!!! Finally, a straightforward and down to earth explanation of how to make twists😊 I swear, that useless feeling of feeling useless at not being able to make twists for myself and my daughters is finally gone. Thanks!
Awesome..my hair is dirty at the moment but I was eager to give it a trial and for the first time...my God😄 it's the clockwise and anti-clockwise move for me...smiles weldone pretty girl
Thanks sooo much. I twist my hear but have never known about the anticlockwise and clockwise twist. My hair is like your's and I love the final look you have. Thanks again.
Watched video first time you made it seem so easy, I use to buy hair and braid my own hair, took 2 days, so I don't anymore but I will definitely try. Can you suggest what hair products you use, awesome
lol wonderful! I’m a dude keeping long hair! Paid a significant amount to twist it days ago and I just spotted a few strands loosening up! I just fixed it thanks to this video 😅
ok yes you were the best video to ever explain this to me, the rest made me think you were just braiding the two strands because they moved so fast i couldn't tell that they were twisting while braiding, hence the twist name lmao took me long enough to realise
it worked omg thank you sooooooo muchhhh almost three years i'm trying to learn how to twist. i have watched countless tutorials up to no avail. new subscriber.
Thank you for sharing this video, I have recently gone back to natural hair and stop using chemicals. I am learning the twist and I am gobig to watch your video and try again tomorrow. So it is best to do the twist on dry hair? As I usually do it after rinsing out my conditioner and was told to towel dry and use products and twist and let it dry in the twist. Am I doing right by doing so?
I would love to say thank you so much. I have been twisting my hair for the last 13 years and it's always great but I was always bothered why my twists were always different from others people's twists... Today I needed to get back to basics because as far as I can recall no one ever taught me how to twist my own hair. All I did one day was wake up and couldn't go to the salon ... BOOM I twisted and my complete head and results were amazing. However today I decided to type twisting natural hair for beginners and as you explained the technique I was practicing on my head... damnnn the result is what I have been looking for for the last 12 years. 😂😂😂 This may sound funny but damnn you are a great teacher I will follow... So if you are asking yourself what did she know before that's different now😊😊.. Well my twist was always bouncy and soft plus not really defined out to stay for so long especially if the hair was very soft and slippery. .. I guess my technique was twisting both hands in the same direction (Clock wise)... Today I held my right for clockwise and my left Ant clock wise... ladies 🎉🎉🎉 low and behold I just feel like I made it in this life😂😂😂... Anyways thank you for the lesson
You explained perfectly. I follow you on IG, if I’d known, I’d have checked your RUclips for this tutorial a long time ago. Thanks again. I’ll watch over and again till I get it right. 👍
Thanks you so much ,I am so grateful for learning how to do twist that finally stayed together. Thanks u. What creme would you recommend for hair root as well as growth and good moisturizer . I love in uk ,we seem to have the same hair texture .I just bought as I am for hair but I dont think its good for the roots so would love all in one moisture root cream .thanks
I've always loved twists,but never seen an explanation so patiently done,well done thank you so much.And am just thinking , if one has a manican( dont know if I spelt it correctly) one can try it on it,b4 making it on ur hair,to be more confident ,thank u so much dear,love this
What products did you use to make the twist with? I know you said, leave in conditioner and moisturizer is that all or do you use some type of twisting gel?
I couldn’t figure out how to tighten the roots so it always looked sloppy, my sister called them “dookie twists” 😭 Thank you for this detailed video!
Plait it at the roots then twist, that's the trick 💯
@@islandbaddieThanks for the good advice!!!
Thank you. I liked the step clockwise and counterclockwise, which ❤❤made perfect sense
😂😂😂
😂😂 dookie twists🤣

Same my whole family is black but I’m light skin with red hair
I don’t know how your skin color is relevant to this twist … just say you wanted everyone to know you had a fair complexion. ….Get over yourself

Same I’m 13 too I’m just a little tired of asking my mom to do my hair all the time. So now I’m trying to learn how to style and take care of it.
@@gerteashamorelus6086 same 😭😭did it work out well ?
@@silvir6310 It turned out great, my mom was really proud of me and I was getting a lot of compliments from my family members.
Same I’m 12 bout to turn 13 and I want twist so ima try to do my own hair
Now I see why my twists are not tightened enough. I haven’t been twisting separately before twisting them together. Thanks for the video. I will save it for next time since I only twisted my kids’ hair yesterday.
Me too!! I was getting fed up
Yes! My youngest I’ve been trying to twist his and they’re all loose. I thought it was due to his hair texture. 😅
I finally found a video that explained the actual twisting part slowly. Twist clockwise with one hand and the other counterclockwise. Thank you so much
She twisted both her hair strands counterclockwise yet she was saying one clockwise and the the other counter. So it doesn’t seem to really matter.
Ok!! Been looking for this like forever
@@kenshin527sasuke?
