I attempted my first set of flat-twists yesterday!!
And it didn't turn out totally jacked!! LOL!
I tend to avoid ANYTHING that has my arms up at an angle for an extended period of time. Especially after doing light-weight training. That just makes my arms burn even MORE, but I was tempted last night while watching "Gossip Girl". I don't normally watch it, but since "24"is no longer on the air *tear*, I had to supplement my mindless television fix.
Anyway, I kept them kinda fat since that would require less time and just kept going, no matter HOW they looked. BUT..... they surprisingly didn't suck! Wohoo!
Last night, I ended up sorta bunning the back and covering with a satin scarf, and this how is it came out. I'm actually pretty proud of myself! :)
Again I ask....who says natural hair isn't versatile!? :P

They did come out cute. I never wear my hair with the flat twists in, I take them out in the a.m.
I just love this style! super cute, I cant wait to try something like this once i get past the TWA stage. By the way, love your blog!
Thank you!! I really was proud of myself! I may keep them in for another day, and retwist in the evening.
And thanks for reading my blog!!
Absolutely gorgeous! Another style to try for myself!
o.m.g.----the flat twist bun COULD NOT be cuter! love it! way to rock it!
You wanna know what's funny, naturalhairselection? The cute factor was on accident. I sleep more on one side, so it ended up being more of a side-swirling bun that JUST HAPPENED to look alright! LOL!
That was your first attempt? Oh my gosh, they look great.
Cute! I like it!
Whhaaa?! Leon...you made your way over here? Now I feel special! :P
Thanks everyone for the positive feedback!! :)
Such a great chunky summery look!
I miss Jack too.
I love, love, love your hair like this!!! I think it is a great look that you can wear anywhere!
very pretty :] ive never done this to my whole head though
The twist out bun is amazing!! That style is soooo me!! I'm still transitioning and have yet to cut my relaxed ends... but your pics have me wanting to reach for my scissors!! Great blog!!
Sorry if I'm a bit late, but I saw your picture on Naturally Obsessed, in the Hair Diary Section, and I was hooked! Did you do it on wet or dry hair?
Thanks to everyone for the comments!
@asimplething, I did them on lightly blown-out hair. I haven't tried it on damp/wet hair just yet.
