Flat Twists Up-do The model’s medium length natural hair is flat-twisted, in flattering patterns that match her bone structure and brings the hair together on the top of her crown. The hair is twisted in larger twists then eloquently brought together in a bun. This offers options for versatility: the individual twists can playfully hang loose from the crown or she can puff it up by taking the twists out. One style, a variety of options. It takes an estimate of four hours to create this wonderful style. If you sleep with a scarf at night, this style can be worn for two to four weeks. Bantu out This hairstyle was done on relaxed hair. If you want to create this style yourself you can do so by the following instructions. You need fresh, clean conditioned damp hair; we recommend one of these shampoos and conditioners: Going Natural Herbal Styling Gel; To hold the style while keeping a silky look and feel. Instructions Create parts like you would if you would roller set your hair. Add ample Going Natural Herbal Styling Gel to each part and twirl it around your finger until it’s completely twisted. Now wrap the twist around its base in a ball on your scalp and secure it by tucking it in its base or with a pin. Take the bantus out when your hair is completely dry and finger style.
