Here’s one two-strand twist. It’s a technique women have used to style their daughters’ hair for who knows how many centuries. Having gone back to my natural hair over the last year, the “twist-out” is a protective style I use regularly to keep my curly hair from becoming too tangled. I love the two-strand twist because it’s so easy to do.

There are other types of twists people do, such as flat twists, which is similar to how you create cornrows or a french braid. I leave that to the professionals since they’re a bit more difficult to do.
