My twist outs never turn out nice in my opinion. They never look neat or shiny (as shiny as my hair gets) like the girls on YouTube. My hair in twist outs usually looks more like mature locks than anything else. I just think my hair looks nicer in braid outs and the hair is less webby and tangled. I did do a set of twists that would have made for a really nice twist out… But of course, they didn’t dry completely.

I think the reason they came out nicer than usual is because-

• I did them on soaking wet hair.
• I made them smaller than usual. I do prefer the look of larger twist outs but I think I have to master small twists before trying a chunky twist out.
• I used my Wetline Xtreme gel over Shea Moisture Curl and Style Milk and coconut oil to set my hair. Wetline gel has a nice soft hold and it worked well for this style.

Here are my twists. I actually didn’t take a picture of the twist out. My hair was still a bit damn when I took the twists out, so I wore my hair in a puff for my night out at the fair.
