How to care for Spring Twists
As I’ve stated earlier, these twists are a low maintenance hairstyle. They don’t require much to be properly maintained.
Wash with Shampoo and Conditioner
To keep your twists clean, wash with shampoo and conditioner. Ensure you do this as gently as possible so you don’t end up breaking your hair at the root or pulling out your twists.
Wash with shampoo first, then go in with the conditioner after which you rinse thoroughly.
Also note that this should not be done frequently as over-washing can make your twists look dull.
Oil Your Scalp
Do NOT neglect your scalp. I know it’s a protective hairstyle, but you still need to keep your scalp moisturized at all times.
Oil your scalp bi-weekly or whenever it feels dry.
Try as much as possible not to itch your scalp. If you have an itchy scalp, you can get an anti-itch scalp oil to help soothe the itching.
Avoid Over styling
Inasmuch as your twists can be made into different styles, avoid over styling. Keep your hands out of your hair as much as you can to avoid damaging the hairstyle.
It’s advisable to change styles only once or twice a week.
Use a Satin Bonnet/Scarf
Wrap your twists in a satin bonnet or scarf before you retire for the night.
As opposed to hair net, this will keep your twists in place and ensure your hair lasts longer.
