I washed and conditioned my twists on Friday the 9th and I've been taking them out one by one, de-tangling and re-twisting them since Saturday and I'm still not finished.
I had to stop late Saturday night because of church Sunday morning and I haven't gotten the chance...'till now, to start re-twisting again.
I don't know if I'll be doing this again. After I washed and conditioned the twists, the roots became tangled (I'm guessing it's because of the scrubbing). As a result of that, In some areas, I had to take many of the twists out at once to de-tangle and then put them back in. It was a little frustrating.
However, It's been really nice not having to de-tangle every 3 to 5 days and it's also been great 'discovering' styles that fit me and that I really like.
I was telling my beau that I think twists could really be in mainstay summer style. During the summer I get my hair wet often and It's nice not having to start over to re-style my curls or settling for a tangled, dried-out wash and go afterwards.
I'll be taking out my twists soon though, because I don't like keeping in the same set of twists in my hair too long...even if I did wash and de-tangle it. I like starting over fresh every so often.
I'm not sure if I'll put more twists in right after washing or take a break with a braid and curl or something. I'll depend on how I feel after washing.
I'll keep you posted...so stay tuned :)
