DRY TIME

No matter what products or variations you decide to choose for your twist out, you can rest assured that your finished product will be amazing on your natural tresses if you allow your tresses to completely dry.

Drying time of course varies depending on the thickness and length of your hair. In my experience with my shoulder length rather thick course hair my hair would be categorized as 4a and 4c with a medium thickness twist-out if air drying I would allow my hair to dry for about 8-10 hours. If you have the time washing and twisting your hair in the morning and allowing all day for drying is ideal. Rocking the twists on their own is a great style which I would recommend as well!

Short cut options for drying time

  • hooded dryer
  • blow dryer

No matter what options you decide to go with. You can rest assured your time and efforts will not be in vain! Happy Twisting folks!
