The best thing for kinky or curly hair is a low manipulation, protective style that holds in
moisture and does not pull and tug at the scalp. Big or small twists can do just that for your
little girl’s hair. Twists are the
perfect choice for hair care for little people because it does not hurt their
little scalps. It also allows the hair
to be in its natural state while still looking neat and prepped for daily
management. I find this style to be very
enjoyable to children as it doesn’t have to take very long and it is very easy
to take down in preparation for another style.
Here are some tips for accomplishing a great set of
twists for your little one.
Step 1- Twists hold the best on damp hair so be sure
to wash your child’s hair in a moisture rich shampoo followed by the
conditioner. Due to your child’s age, you will want to be extremely gentle with
them during the process so that they will learn to love getting their hair
done. Pre-Detangle their hair with some
water or coconut oil to loosen up the curls and make it easier to work
with. Use your shampoo at least two
times and while conditioning, gently comb through the hair to remove tangles
and prep the hair for styling. After
combing through a section, twist the hair in large twists to maintain control
of the hair.
Step 2- Rinse the hair of the conditioner while the
twists remain in your child’s hair. No
worries, the hair will still be cleansed.
The twists are to prevent severe tangling throughout the process. Now you are ready to style.
Step 3- Untwist one section of the hair and begin
with that section. Spray the hair with a
leave in conditioner spray and based on your child’s hair density, apply Curly
Q Custard for thick hair or Curly Q Milkshake for fine curly hair. No need for parting with a comb, just
grab the size twist you want split into two pieces of hair. Twirl the two strands around each other and
voila, you have twists! If you need
additional hold, use the Curly Q Gel -les’c as a finisher for all curl types.
I guarantee you and your child will love this style.
ENJOY!
