Yarn Twists Revisited

I loved my yarn twists so much the first time that I had to do them again. This time I did them longer and smaller. As a result they looked better and lasted longer.

The picture on the left is a picture from the first attempt at yarn twists. I had them in from August 18 – September 9. However, I had to keep retwisting a few in the first because my real hair would swell up. The picture on the right is a picture from the second attempt. These stayed in from September 18 – October 19. The twists themselves were still looking good but my scalp was dry and I had a ton of new growth so I took them out.

Here is how much it has grown prior to taking them down. The picture on the left is the back of my hair with about 2 inches of growth. The picture on the right is the side of my hair with about 1 inch of growth.

    I believe I had the twist in for a month. But, it all may not be growth…could have been slippage of the yarn as well.
