Flat Twistout w/ 2 Braids

You get it first...


This is a style I wore to the CurlyNikki gathering a while back. I got a few questions on how I maintained the look and this is how.

The flat twists were done on dry hair that was an old twist-out. The older the twist-out the more stretched out the look. 

This look was originally done on freshly washed hair but as the days passed the look got a little messy and this video basically demonstrates the steps I took to refresh the style.

To achieve/refresh this style:
1. Create two plaits/braids in the front
2. Separate the rest of the hair into easy to work with sections
3. Using a water-based product, flat twist from the crown to the nape (this will encourage length with the look)
4. When hair is 100% dry remove the twist (apply oil if desired) and fluff until you are happy with the look



Edit: The error with the video not playing should be resolved. If it does not play for you please let me know
