Senegalese Twist

What exactly is a Senegalese Twist? How much do you know about it? It is a very bad reputation for us girls if we do not know about this super famous hairstyle.

The Senegalese Twist is a very demanding and popular hairstyle that originated from Senegal, Africa. If you ever visit Africa, or just search the internet writing ‘Senegalese Women’, you will see many women with this famous hairstyle.

If Senegalese Twist sounds too big for you to pronounce then you call it a rope twist or a crochet twist.

The Senegalese Twist is not only a fashionable hairstyle but also a very protective hairstyle. All the damages that your hair goes through by colouring, climate changes, styles that you do to hair by applying heat, are protected by Senegalese Twist.

For those girls who are desperate for their hair to grow back, good news is here for you. Try the Senegalese Twist. It helps to grow your hair long in a healthy state.

Your extensions need to be properly washed and dried before applying. Wash them with apple cider vinegar and hot water and let them dry in the air.

Second Step –

Third Step –

Tie up your hair in a bun to make the process more organized.

Fourth Step –

Split your hair in two different parts, and apply the edge control cream in the middle of your scalp.

Fifth Step –

Split your hair into four different sections. Two natural, and two synthetics. Join one natural with one synthetic. Do this for both the naturals, and both the synthetics.

Sixth Step –

Twist the sections into the same directions.

Seventh Step –

After you have twisted fully, take the ends of your hair and dip them in hot water. Dry it with a towel but be careful not to wipe too roughly because it might damage the twist and all your hard work.

With a small brush, smooth all your hair.

Q/A Sessions – Question of the Year

How to maintain Senegalese hairstyle?

Maintaining Senegalese hairstyle requires some steps. You need to follow these properly if you want your Senegalese hairstyle to look perfect, remain healthy, and catch a lot of attention. So, what you have to do is, you have to wash your hair with shampoo at least four days a week.

You might have noticed that African women do not wash their hair regularly. They do this because regular usage of water damages the twists. You should apply an appropriate amount of edge control cream and moisturizer in the middle of your scalp till the back end of your natural hair.

Too much appliance of edge control cream and moisturizer is restricted because it damages the hair. After the Senegalese Twist is complete, be careful not to tie your hair too tight. Tying your hair too tight will create pressure and extra tension on your hair.

This tension will cause you spinal cord and back neck pain. This is very harmful. Also, too much tightness in the hair tie causes hair fall rapidly.
