HOW MINI TWISTS GREW MY HAIR TO TAILBONE *MY TOP HAIR GROWTH TIPS* 

The "borrowing hair" "equal parts" tip is solid GOLD !

I started my mini braid journey because I wanted microlocs as well with out the commitment lol. I use Ayurvedic teas to moisturize my hair, and I still deep condition and wash my hair on a regular basis in my braids. I also seal with castor oil, I love curly proverbz the golden one 🥰

I started doing my hair in mini braids (not twists, just braids) in 2010. It was my junior year of college and I was still learning how to do my hair. It has helped my hair to grow so much. However, what really amplified my hair growth was my herbal powder drinks and covering my head with scarves. I started covering my hair last year when a stranger grabbed my hair on the train. This was not the first time a stranger grabbed my hair, but this time was different because he was so bold about it. I started to cover my hair because I was tired of people judging me for my hair and because I was afraid another stranger would grab me. I put on a silk scarf beneath the scarves and matched each scarf with my attire for the day. My hair felt softer and I barely had any knots using this method. The herbal powders, I would mix them in water, sometimes an individual powder and sometimes several powders. I was mainly doing this to help my teeth and gums which I have struggled with for a while. I knew my hair was growing from them because my eyelashes and nails became thicker. The powders I used the most were: chlorella, maca, blue spirulina, white oak bark, damiana, horsetail/shavegrass, baobab, red clover and lemon balm. I also poured in other liquids in the water like Ormus (monatomic gold), colloidal minerals and trace mineral drops. My hair may be waist length or a few inches from it but I'll see when I get my next trim.

I'm so lost on how you maintain your twist for 2 months. My hair is a mess within a few days. That is with minimal styling. Your hair is beautiful.

ur hair was not this long the last time i saw u omg. u are not lying about these mini twists 😭

I feel a lot of people still don't understand the concept of protective styling and what it entails. This video makes a good reference for me to make people understand. Thanks for sharing this cos I thought I was the only one who is actually “protective styling" for real😅.

I would love to see a video, "A week in my mini twists" to have a more detailed layout. Thanks, new subscriber here.

This was a very affirming video. You echoed a lot of the things I’ve come to realize from trial and error. Currently redoing my mini twists, and probably for the first time I’m not stressing about how long it’s taking. I’m being very deliberate and intentional with every section. And to see how length is retained just from the past month, I’m so grateful to finally find the style and way to care for my hair. There was so much bs I dropped along the way, and I laugh at how ridiculous they seem to be, now that I am here. Something that I am also appreciating is new growth hair. It’s so thick, and strong, healthy. I used to dread seeing new growth when I relaxed or hot comb press my hair. Imagine the freedom in seeing the beauty of new growth instead of seeing it as a burden. This is the first haircare video I’ve seen in a long ass time. And I started my journey when all we had was a couple of message boards to connect to other sisters. You said exactly the things that needed to be said, and did it in an honest way. Thank you for sharing this confirmation.

I had my twist in for 3.5 months while recovering from neck surgery and baby let me tell you the growth!!! Next time I will do them myself because I didn't like setting foam on my hair.

Truth! I do regular-semi mini twists and the GROWTH! My hair loves them and I do too 😊 Keeping them hydrated and moisturized is key!

Braiding the roots and twisting the rest is a good tip.

Putting my mini twist in rn😭man it’s been 2 days

Tailbone? I’m just trying to get to waist length 😭

Omg hey girl! Not me now realizing that I wasn’t subscribed this whole time😮 silly me my bad! Thanks for sharing this gem of video! Currently also on a mini braids journey at the moment but i’m taking a break for the summer with my new goddess knotless braids i had done for my birthday a week ago🤗😍 Yes please start a mini twists series! That would be awesome! For your next mini twists related video, may you please do a full detailed tutorial on how you moisturize your hair in mini twists/a mini twists maintenace video for hɔir growth? Would love to see that next🥳🥳🥳🥳

Love your hair content. 💕 I l"ve been on a mini flat twist journey for the past almost 2 years. Prior to that, I was on a mini twist journey for up to 7 years. I've maintained the majority of my length. I trim my hair every 3 to 4 months as needed. Keeping ends tucked is the truth. Propper preparation and maintained as well.

I will use this advice for when I do my kinda mini braids. My hands cramp when I do my twists or braids too small lol.

I thought this was a two strand twist tutorial I enjoy watching those

This video was everything I needed. Confirmation of what I've been wanting to do. 1 year micro loc'd, but prefer this method. Thanks for sharing sis.

I just started mini braids on 6/22/24. After a recent cut, I’m right above bra/mid back length. I feel like after each trim I’m somehow at this same spot. I’m hopeful to reach tailbone length within a year. I’m also doing other aggressive growth methods.

I’m a mini twist girlie as well so really appreciated your insights ❤

Very good advice on caring for your hair, it makes perfect sense what you said.

Loved the video! So informative and inspiring.💗 I would love to see a video on how and when you trim. Do you go to the salon or have you learned to trust yourself? Also, do you even plan to straighten?! Maybe a mini twist q&a?! Much love and thank you for sharing!

Aye I'm watching this with mini/two strand twists in my hair. It has literally became my new favorite style next to a good wash n go. It's been really helpful for me in the summer. I usually do a few weeks of wash n go, then month of mini twists, really just do what is best for my hair and life at that time. Braiding at the root was such a life changer too. Omggggg! It really helped with the tangling. And I'm the same with how far down I braid it down. Twists have helped me retain length so much. I don't get trims often and every time I go to a salon they are always surprised by how healthy my ends are! Time and patience is gonna be the hurdle for me. But it's only on the retwist and takedown. To keep the parts I combine the process. That's why I can't do twists all the time. I need the 20min wash n go's to break the monotony and labor. That's why I do twists for a month then wash n go's for a few weeks. Cuz the more my hair grows the longer the retwist gets and I don't want to get lazy and take worse care of my hair. Excited for a mini twist series! ❤️

Thank you for that even hair on both sides tip! I definitely borrow hair from the other side and that’s probably where I get my single knot when taking it out

I was loc'd for a little under 2 years, when I finally took them out I had minimal shedding and my hair had grown to mid-back length. And honestly it is due to moisturizing and retwisiting with light products. I would retwist and moisturizer with aloe water and oil and that's it! After watching this video, I'm going back to the basics but with mini twist.

I wonna get to tailbone length too. Thanks for the info. I mainly do mini twists and ayurvedic masks.

I'm EARLY..... Love to learn from you❤

Thank you so so much!! This video was so informative💖

This is SUPER helpful!!! Thank you so much ❤

I love this. Thank you for sharing! ❤

What’s your exact moisture routine? How many times a week, is there anything you do to avoid your hair mating; a specific way to apply moisturizer?

I wish you would've covered the following points: 1) Washing schedule for 1 install that last 2 months . Weekly, bi-weekly or monthly basis? 2) Install Prep: Do you start on blow dried hair or on damp hair. At first, it seemed like you were starting on damp hair and then you moved on to blow dried hair. I'm just trying to understand the benefit of starting a fresh set of twists of blow dried hair. if your expected to moisturize every 5 to 7 days, wouldn't that be counterproductive? 3) Do you refresh/redo your twists around your forehead over a period of 2 months?

Your hair is beautiful 😍

I so agree with the mini twist best of both worlds

Hello. Peace and love. I had locs for 1 year and 3 months and I cut them off. I realize I miss my loose natural curly hair so my plan is to do the same as you are doing but I am doing a braid and twist journey but with extensions. So I will mainly do protective styles and wear my loose natural hair out every now and then. I did love my locs but I don’t think I will ever loc my hair again. Thank you for sharing. Peace, love and blessings 🌷💐💚💜💗

QUEEN!!! 😍💖😍👑

I have high porosity hair and I do medium twist and redo weekly!!

Hey it will be nice to see how you maintain your mini twists, if you wash your hair with the mini twists in and how often, how long after washing you moisturize, how often you do a twist refresh or do you do over the entire thing

hey, quick question how often do you take down your mini twists during the yr? Is it every two months for washing or do you watch them in the mini twist? Also do you recommend installing the twist on stretch hair/blow-out hair? because in your other videos, you emphasize blowing out your hair before installing the twist. Thanks for the tips btw

So helpful! Thank you! I started installing mini twist earlier this year, and I’m on my second install. Do you have tips or suggest washing your hair during the mini twist period?

I retain so much length doing mini twists. I retain about 1.5 inches every 2 months.

I need to start a twist journey ASP love your hair I am a new subscriber ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

I would love to be a mini twist babe but I have hands in hair syndrome so I’m opt to wear wig for the month of July then mini twist for August. Vise verse. I just big chopped major head damage from bra strap to a mini fro at lease my hair can still twist and braid in cornrow so I’m thankful for the length still , while I did my own big chop, it’s very choppy so I’m growing it out and in 3 months I’ll go get it shape up properly

Hey girl! Thank you for this video! Do you have a video with the products you use to keep the moisturized while in the style? I’m a visual learner 😅 7:01

Great information. Tfs.

Hey girl heyyyyy! After finding your channel I was devasted to see it wasn't active for long form 😭🫶🏾 You have convinced me to stick to mini twists rather than extensions. Less time to install, cheaper to keep up with. And I can't wait to get some henna!!

I love your content! Starting my mini twist journey today 🎉 where do you get your head-wraps from?

Great video! Question : Have you ever done mini braids before? If no, would you do mini braids on yourself?

Hey! Thanks for your video and tips 😊 I used to wear mini twists for years and for some reason never saw length retention. When I wore mini braids I did see length retention 🤷🏿‍♀️ I'm not sure what I was doing wrong. May I ask how long you keep your mini twists in for? Do you wash your hair in twists? And can I ask if you swim much or are you active and sweat in your hair much? I hope you don't mind me asking these questions x

I recently just came out of mini twists that lasted two months (yeah I know) hair definitely got longer but boyyy my ends were in dire need of a trim

I love your hairrrrrr 😊 no but once I left heat alone it’s finally growing back ☺️ I’m not even going to use a comb anymore and my hair sheds less ❤

Im sure you have used the camille rose honey leave in before. Would love to see how it works on your twists. I am not a huge fan of it but I am not fully against it either 😂.

I was very disappointed that you didn’t show us how you did your mini twists.

Do you ever do styles with extensions or strictly natural twists?

What leave-in are using actually ? And what is your top 3 fav leave-in please ? 🥰

hey thanks for the knowledge ❤ My mini twist get frizzy and tangle so quickly and i try to keep it in head raps whenever i can and i always sleep with a satin scarf. can you help me plz ?

I'm really envious lol. Mini twists don't work out for me because I need to shampoo my scalp every 4-5 days. So stretching my hair and then doing mini twists is a waste. And even if I try to gently cleanse while wearing twists, they just tangle up and get puffy. I so wish I could just twist and leave my hair alone😔

What is your Wash routine for the mini twists

Im so interested in the black stretchy scarf. Do tell?.. 😊

I’m still at the twa phase and my hair only wants to be in a fro 😭 I’ll get there

It would be nice if you included the pics of the products that you use.

Where do you get your wraps?

Are you Canadian? You sound Canadian Jamaican. You sound like Ika Wong or some other Jamaican Canadians I follow

My hair starts to lock in between other twist at the root. I thought it was because I was parting sloppy.

I have long hair, but a lot of breakage so doing mini twists get very messy and they look a hot mess.

I wished my mini twist would last a week. 2-3 days and it looks like I hade them for a month. Sometimes I leave them and just take a few days taking them down. I cannot retwist every few days, but I wish I could.

I would like to learn th brand mini twist and how to maintain the up keep I know you taught me to do mini twist but when do I was then? Thanks this have started my hair growth jurney.

my mini twists always look boneless 😭

Don’t your hair start locking with keeping twist in for that long? I kept mine in for 1 month and it started locking up.

Can you please please please make a video explaining how to keep mini twist from getting soo tangle and matted. whenever i install my twist, in one week or two weeks it so frizzy. Thank you very much. loveeeee your videos!!!❤

@curlcodeblack. I have been rockin with you for a while....But the sound of your videos are tooo low. Can you make an improvement there???

I had to blast my tv to even be able to hear you the slightest bit. Even on my phone it still wasn’t very loud. Such valuable information , but it’s a chore to even try to engage with your content. 😢 Adobe’s AI audio tool could have fixed this in seconds.

I wish I could but I look like a wet rat when I wear mini twists 😢.

The Kim kardashian style of talking is getting so old 😫 I noticed only Afro Caribbean living in America talks like that along with young American white women. But yeah, mini twist routine is brilliant
