Hey y’all! I discovered a new styling trick that really works to get the look I want for my twist outs. The other day, I rocked a mo-hawk, and realized that my bangs were way too long to hang in my face.
That night, I retwisted my hair in two-strand twists, but did three bantu knots in the front of my hair, like so:
I usually pin my bangs to side when I do a twist out, (I’m too afraid to cut them because I like being able to style them by pinning them back, etc)- but if I bantu knot the hair in the front, the result is a curlier, tighter (Read:shorter) curl that doesn’t hang down to my nose!*
By combining the two styles (twists and knots) I get the hangtime I want in the back and the perfect length I want in the front!
Thanks, now I know what to do to get my bangs back now that they are too long. Thanks for sharing. Glad I stumbled across this post. 🙂 Going to try this weekend maybe.
I just did the same thing…Love it!
nice!
i usually twist & roll my bangs…definition comes out fabulous!
Your hair is gorgeous.
Wow , i tried to do bantu knots but my hair isnt long enough to show the full effect of the knot out.
SN: i love your hair ! it is soo shiny, you embrace yourself beautifully : )
Thanks so much for this idea!!!Beautiful hair:)
GORGEOUS hair! Beautiful result! I've pinned up, side and curled for springier (re: shorter) bangs so bantus as a possible alternative is cool to know!
great idea!
Brilliant!
