These are so pretty. Does anything think that there are some hair textures that don't work well for twists? Or maybe the hair is not dense enough?

Idk .. maybe 2b hair?

Hmmmm. I don't have 2b hair... nothing close to that. But I know my attempts at twists don't look as pretty and thick as these here.
Okay... so technically twists won't look good on relaxed hair? Right?
Perhaps it's my relaxed ends that are causing my problems.

Relaxed ladies can do two strand twists on their hair but it won't look the same and will need to have the ends tied, unlike curly natural hair, or it will unravel.
This video from Traycee Two Strand Twist On Relaxed Hair might help.

I dont think they will be thick are someone with a kinkier texture but they still look voluminous with twistouts. This lady at my job looked scalpy the 1st day but the second day BEAUTIFUL

Yea i tried to twist my hair in it was relaxed... .wasn't a good look for me. You would have to roll the ends because the hair doesn't grab like natural hair

The back/nape area of m y head is 3C...so those twists come loose quicker...
I remedied this by making those twists smaller, and I add a lil more product (I use very little to start), and seal.
You can try putting rods on those straight ends...but honestly that is why I went on and BC'd in the first place.

I am literally drooling ova here. I don't have any pictures to post but I didn't want to be one of the lurkers you referred to! I only flat twist my hair for twist outs. I don't love my 2 strand twists cuz they seem a little anemic looking 
and they curl up. I am ready to try again especially if I can bun them or wear them up somehow. I like the way they look and was going to pay someone to do them for me but ... if I try the 2 strands again myself tell me
- are you twisting while wet, damp or dry?
- what product are you using on your twists?
- how can I have straight even parts too
?
Thanks - I'm subscribing - if you posted a picture and I didn't thank you its only cuz I can't see them on this computer [box with little red x]

I totally agree. I don't think twists look good on me. My hair is too fine and my twists look sickly. I have to use bands on the ends to keep them from unraveling. I do like my twistouts though. I just never wear my hair out in twists.
I'd die for some thick juicy twists.

Ok, I am such a dingbat! I could not figure out why my twistouts and braidouts looked so crazy...so not like you alls. But i was twisting in on my scalp like a frenchbraid! I'm going to do the hanging twists when I deep condition this weekend. Hopefully I'll have pictures to post soon.
