Default How do you get twist like these?

I just love Yara Shahidi's twists. I want to recreate this style eventually. I know its not just her hair texture. She has had normal looking twists before.

Her normal looking twists





The twist that I want to create



Is it just my eyes or do these twists look distinctively different? Most of the time her twists look crinkly kind of like sis twists/curly twists/ bomb twists. i know it her real hair and that the twists are quite large, but they do look different from standard twists.

If you believe there is a difference, could you tell me how to produce those results.

They might be 3 strand twists. A member on here had her twists done professionally, and they looked different than normal twists too.

The style that you want to create looks like a twist-out or maybe even a three stand twist-out.

I wonder what the difference between a "three strand twist" and "braiding" is?

I was going to try and explain but I think a visual is more effective for this question:
