Hi, guys! As promised, this is the tutorial for how I achieved my hairstyle - the headwrap
with a twist out I'll insert a picture of it right now
So, first I cut an area of hair and I just put four twists in it
Just four two-strand twists. I just used castor oil
Here, I have my hair in chunky two-strand twists
This is the second style that I was talking about
Later on during the week, I will show you the style I achieved with this
But...for the headwrap So, the first thing I do - normally, I would
put my stocking cap on my head before I put my scarf on
But I can't find my stocking cap so I"ll be using a headband around my head
Okay, so because I don't have my scarf, I'll be using this to put around my head
so my scarf wouldn't touch it, touch my hair and irritate it and suck all the oil out of
it This is my headband.
Now, I just lightly brush the edges, just lightly
And, I put this right around my edges like this
Okay. So again, normally I would put my stocking cap on so all my hair is protected from this
cotton fabric Now, let me show you my shawl. It's not even
a scarf, it's a shawl, a full body shawl See, it's quite big!
The first thing I do is I fold it...leaving just a little overhang on one side
Okay? So, that's the overhang Now, I will turn it this way and put it over
my head Now, you want to ensure it's just here, but
it's covering the edges, okay. And I'll just tie it
Now, it's a little bit too much back so I'll try to loosen it
I'll put it closer towards the front because I don't want it slipping out
Sometimes you have to tie it all over once you take it off
So, I'll put it higher up Okay, good! Right...not too tight.
So, now that it's on I'm going to twist the ends just like this
Okay? And I'm going to twist both ends like this
And I don't twist all the way to the end yet This one is shorter so I can twist all the
way to the end Right. Now, I take any side first, but I'll
take this one and I'll just bring it around...let me pull
this back ...back some more...
And I'll pull it around here Continue twisting this one
So, you're holding this one and you're bringing this one...
It's a challenge - you have to twist and twist and twist
twist and twist, as you can see... And you bring it far back, and you bring it
around Right, and here you have the both sides meeting
so what I normally do is I just tie it I just do a basic tie
Right, so you just tie it - pull it tightly Now, the strings in my shawl make it a little
technical to pull through Right. Right, so you make sure everything
is looking neat You pull and tuck wherever you want to tighten
And, now you just tuck in the ends So, I'll just tuck in some here, twist, twist..and
I'll tuck in some there A little string is showing here, tuck it in
So, basically that's it! Now, all you have to do here is just take
out your two strand twists And, there you go! So, you have a cute style
with your headwrap and your two-strand twists And remember, there's a second hairstyle underneath
here waiting to happen!
