Rope or Sister Twists for Perfectly Defined Twist-outs

Now that I am locking my hair, I fondly remember my quest for the perfect defined twist-out. I knew just how to get it - what products to use and what type of twists to do. Now, I am sharing my secrets with you.

Perfect Super-Defined Twist-out

Here is how I do my rope twists for a super-defined, long-lasting twist-out.

General Suggestions

• If you do this on dry hair, you need to let it remain for at least a week to get as much definition as possible and for the twists to set.
• For best results, do this on detangled damp or wet hair. Let your hair fully dry or it could end up  not so defined, like this... 

Product Suggestions

• Jane Carter Nourish and Shine. This is suggested especially if done on dry hair as it really has fantastic hold.
• Lottabody setting lotion on damp hair gives great hold but no moisture so you must add your oils or moisturizer. It is very affordable.
• Regular shea butter and coconut oil combination or old school grease can be used on damp hair as well. This may need to stay in for a couple of days though in order for your twist-out to last. 

Size Suggestions

Micro Twist-out

• Micro Twists can be done with micro twists but is extremely difficult to detangle. I don't really suggest this. But it did give me a great twist-out back in the day as you can see to above.  
• You can also do larger twists but the twist-out won't last very long. I suggest smaller medium twists. the twist-out below lasts about 2-3 days and maybe 5 if you don't  mind it not being very defined.
