Senegalese Twist with Shaved Sides

How would you describe this look?

These Senegalese Twists are very feminine, and they seem to have a softer look than a regular braid. They are also fast to install!

Any advice for someone considering it?

The twists are for the fun boho girly girls. If you don’t like the boho style and would prefer a sleeker and polished look, the twists are not for you! Over time they tend to frizz, so I recommend all my clients to use Lotta Body’s “Wrap Me Foam Mousse.”

Long and Large Senegalese Twists

Q&A with style creator, Elizabeth
Mobile Hairstylist @ BunnyBraids in London, UK

How would you describe this look?

These are Senegalese twists also known as rope twists. This is because it originates from Senegal, West Africa, and it mimics the look of a rope. It’s a trendy and stylish protective style.

What I love about this style is its versatility. You can get them done in different sizes/lengths, and it can be styled in various ways. You can have it down, braided into an updo, curled, or simply put into a lovely bun. It is also quicker to install and take out than traditional three-strand braids.

Any advice for someone considering it?

This look is very low maintenance & easy to manage. You can style it just like you would do your own hair. It’s ideal for people with busy schedules or those who don’t fancy the idea of spending lots of time on their natural hair.

Minimal products are needed to keep it neat. I usually tell clients to focus the care on their scalp, because the twists are fine on its own. I do recommend using the Cantu Apple Cider Vinegar Root Rinse to soothe the scalp and keep the hair moisturized.

This style suits any face regardless of the shape or size. In terms of hair texture, it’s easier to twist kinkier hair than silky straight hair. If you have straight or silky hair, I’d recommend going for a small size or use kinky or Marley hair extensions to help keep your twists in place. Braids are also an alternative option as it won’t unravel as quickly on silky hair.

These twists are very trendy and can be worn casually and also in corporate settings. Great for fun and easy going people!

Burgundy Hair with Senegalese Twists

Stylist / Owner @ Ivan’s Hair Professionals in Rancho Cucamonga, CA

How would you describe this look?

Senegalese twist is a softer look than box braids. A lot of my clients go for this look because it is so different than your normal braids.

I love the way it all comes together in the end. From afar, the twists look like braids but up close they just look amazing!

Any advice for someone considering it?

Senegalese twist style is a good choice for those who have corporate jobs, being that twists have a much softer appeal. They are also great for those who just want a different look. When styled, they look amazing!

The twists are also great for all hair types. Although, they don’t do as well in water as box braids would, being that braids are sealed. Twists are just twisted hair, so in water, your hair tends to come out of the twist which causes it to frizz.

Even though they don’t last as long as braids, once my clients try these twists, they almost never go back to regular box braids. They completely fall in love with the look of the twists.

How would you describe this look?

This is a bold look. It’s not always that you come up against someone using it out there. I love how you can be different with it.

Any advice for someone considering it?

You need to be able to sustain the style you carry. The first thing to consider is: will this look beautiful on me? If the answer is positive, then do it!

Senegalese Twist Crochet Braid

Q&A with style creator, Tedra Owens
Licensed Cosmetologist @ Salon P31 in Columbia, SC

How would you describe this look?

This protective style is easy maintenance, a time-saving, yet professional look and most definitely a vacation hair. You can have Senegalese twists like these but for half the time and half the cost.

What I love about this style is the convenience of it. Just put your bonnet on at night and get up and go in the morning.

Any advice for someone considering it?

Has your hair assessed first by a stylist to see if it can withstand this style? One must not have thin hair or edges, or a receding hairline. It also depends on one’s personality and lifestyle to see if this may or may not be the look for you.

This particular hairstyle has a braided foundation and then the Senegalese twists are crocheted onto the braid. So, this style is made for hair with a lot of density and thicker edges that can withstand the tension of this style.
