I know I'm late to comment, but I will anyway. I also have fine hair. You can make the twists look fuller by making them loose. If you twist them tightly, you get more length but less volume. Twisting them loosely allows your hair to "puff up" within the twists. It also takes much less time to install. You are very cute and look beautiful either way!
A lot of girls that do mini twist usually have thickness to their hair. So I agree with you, but you're pretty - you can wear any style and get away with it- some women can't.
@@deborahboms I use very little amount of butter/grease because I also noticed being heavy-handed with products weigh my strands down and doesn't allow it look fluffy.
@@kianajna365 Hi....no I don't. I stretch my hair (with or without heat) so I avoid spraying it as I twist. If I must, I spray lightly on my palms and squeeze a large section before I seperate to twist. Hope this helps
Yesssss I find it looks so much butter on my hair if my hair is stretched. I have fine hair as well and I hate how mini twists looked on my before I started stretching my hair. Also before I started stretching my hair before installing the twist, I would wet my hair every day, for some reason the cause my hair to have a lot of tangled and takedown was soo stressful trying to de tangle my hair. Definitely recommend stretching the hair for my fellow fine hair girlies
The problem you experienced was about thin and fine hair. Our kind of hair appears thick in the natural state, but in actuality it is really fine hair. My hair does the exact same thing, so mini twists are definitely not a go-to style for me because of the shape of my head. They look just like your finished product--which to me, looked fine on you. But as for me, I prefer to stick with chunkier twists so that my hair will appear as thick and full and is much easier when it comes to taking it down. Your end result looked fine because of the shape of your head, I looked like a little brown scarecrow, so I took it down immediately! 😂😂
I think the issue is your hair in the back is longer than the hair In the front so it doesn’t look as full. The shape of your hair definitely helps. I have noticed when I had two different lengths my twists look thin. But if your hair was more similar in length and you do brick parting it would look good.
My hair looks like yours when I did my mini twist the 1st few times. I just did mini twist again a week ago and it came out perfect. I have fine hair myself. The trick to getting my hair to look good I believe is the products I used. I washed my hair the added leave in only. I stretched my hair in fairly big 2 strand twist all over and then the next day I added a moisturizer and my jerry curl spray lol. Not too much product your hair should be barely damp. Sounds like a lot but it works for my fine hair
Thanks for sharing the journey! It can be frustrating when a hairstyle doesn't turn out as planned, but it's nice to see what your realistic experience was! Really appreciate it. 😊
Your twists look beautiful. My twists are exactly the same. It's a natural look for our hair type and length. I used to leave mine in for at least a week, then I'd undo and wear as twist out which has a lot more volume.
My hair was the same way when it was ur length, except mine were boneless and limpy. Eventually, when ur hair gets thicker and longer you’ll be able to have those long chunky twists we all love so much! But hair is beautiful no matter the length, thank you for sharing this with us natural girlies❤
I honestly think the stretching and refreshing the next day saved the style. That little high puff is super cute. I have medium-density, medium-to-thick strands (depending on the position of my scalp). I have recently tried mini twists and they looked more sparse than I expected! It was a new thing I had discovered about my hair, and now I'm learning to love it. It took me MONTHS to love the look of mini-braids on my hair. If you wear them for a few days in that puff, I think you'll start to like them a bit better.
girl I relate, I just installed my mini twists and I had to come search on youtube to see if someone has had a similar experience and girl was I happy when I saw your thumbnail. No I'm subing to you channel 💓
I laughed so hard. I have the type of your hair.I think it failed partly because of the products you used and partly your hair type. The products weigh your hair down. You need your hair to be fluffy and voluminous, not heavy. I think if you start with freshly washed blowed dried hair with mouse, it would puff up better.
Your twists are very pretty. My hair is mid back length, but when i wear twists, it shrinks up to my neck. I don't care tho because i don't have to worry about my hair for 3 weeks..
Tbh i dont see anything wrong with your twist,your hair is just short and have layers.because when my hair was shorter my mini twist used to look just like yours,but now they are longer they look fuller,and another thing that make any style i do look good i have a top heavy shape to my hair.
to get your mini twists looking juicy, twist tightly at the roots and then looser once you feel the twists is secure and then when you get to the end twist tightly when you get to the end again to keep them from unraveling
*Its just your hair.* *Your hair strands are very fine.* The look you really want isnt that achievable UNLESS you add hair. Thats honestly your best option for the look you want. I know what you were going for. (I have really fine strands also. I can 100 percent relate.) Btw, you said thin... your hair is not thin. Your hair strands are fine.
I do mini twist on blown out hair. Wet or damp hair can effect your style. I also use braiding gel to get my twist to hang a lil better. Or weigh them down. Doing this was a game changer for me.
The times I convinced myself that I can do my own hair, my twists looked similar to urs, but once I was done with d 1st section I kuku undid the hair I went to the salon 😂😂 the lady there said its cause I made the twists tight n not loose. A month ago I went to another saloon n some girls were there to learn how to do different hairstyle. That day they were asked to do twists n although they were the regular sized twists (not mini) she told them that d secret is to twist in the opposite direction that is to the right. I haven't tried twisting my own hair again to verify if its true but when they did what she said it looked way better than what they had started off doing
We have the same texture/type of hair……. Girl you had me cracking up the whole video 😅😂 I can definitely relate to you. I don’t know maybe those other girls got the magic touch or something 😅😂. Cause when I twist my hair it don’t be looking like when those other girls do it. You are beautiful. 🌸 let us know how the twist looked when you took them down.
You dont have low density hair. Its definitely fine though. I think getting your hair cut into a shape would help a lot with the wnd result, but you could lose a lot of length in the back
Frankly, I think you’re giving yourself a needlessly hard time. There’s literally nothing wrong with your lovely head of hair. It’s just how finer strands look in mini-twists. If you’re wanting a fuller look, try circular free-parting. I promise you will love that ❤
Try stretching with wider bands not the rubber bands 😅 But alsoooo mini twists can just shrink and be making you wonder what happened 😭😂 And next time you could try it on stretched hair Natural hair is a lot of trial and error😭😭😂😂
Add glycerin to your moisturize routine. 11g of glycerin n 68g of water. The glycerin gives the her fuller density. Some just use Shea butter it up to you. Over time your hair will get fuller. Meaning wearing your braids for 2-3 months with out taking them down
I’m thinking maybe u can twist the front towards the front to make a bang. Not sure if it’s long enough for that but after you took the bands off, it seems like it might work. I will try this too.
My hair is about the same length now after having to clip. I do mini twists like you to keep my hair low maintenance and easier to keep moisturized as I love my hair back to health. My twists come out like yours and I love it. Today I’m trying flat twists in the front and then mini twists to the back to switch it up. I just realized I have fine strands as of late which is why a lot of the styles I see on TH-cam don’t really work for me. As your hair gets longer the mini twists will probably be more to your liking.
You left out the most important.. the strand size. Fine hair strands aren't gonna look anything like the medium n thick strands. (She has fine strands, very fine .)
I make my friends natural hair especially mini twists and it bounces,basically all I do is not making the twist too tight. I mean not twisting tight, make a loose twist.
I am hollering at the beginning 😂. My hair is fine as well, so two strand mini twists don’t really work out well for me. But, I LOVED how you did your hair at the end with the bun. It is cute on you. You’re gorgeous anyway, so no matter how you style your hair, you will still be pretty.
I respectfully disagree. Your twists are gorgeous to me. Your parts are not prevalent nor is your scalp shining through. Your hair in twists looks dense to me, and your twists in two puffs would be 🔥. I've learned not to compare my natural hair to other naturals ❤. My hair is fine with low to medium density, but I rock my twists as if my hair is thick with the highest density known to man 😂. Luv'n my tresses to health and to life!
Hi. Fellow thin haired cutie here. Honestly, I loved the results on your hair. It looked just like mine. I don't know if it'll help much, but I generally prefer to braid my twists instead of banding. It stretches the twists but still gives a curly look to them that makes it seem like I have some volume. Plus, it looks super cute.
You should use leave in conditioner on each cut you make before twisting and don’t make the twists tight. This should help make the twist bounce and full
From the looks of it…. It looks like you don’t fully detangle your hair while it’s wet. You need to add a water bottle to your routines lol it’s time consuming but it’s way healthier for OUR hair!!!!!! ***moisture is key
Love this video. Thank you for sharing!! My hair is EXACTLY like yours. I used to wear mini twists, but now ai ear mini braids 1) because I no longer care and 2) they lasts so much longer in my opinion. I keep my braided up in a high bun, and it doesn’t look as bad to me than what I thought it would look. I wear them 6 months out the year in a high bun and the other 6 months (refreshing every 2 months), and I do 7 angled cornrows going into a low bun the other 6 months
Your mini wasn't mini enough. This is just like a normal twist with normal size. Mini has to be really tiny like 1 million twists. I'm unable to share a picture, I would have shown you what I mean. When it's really tiny, it gives you the volume you need.
Debbie I've been looking for the kinda video, cause this is totally my hair, I even started thinking natural hair thing wasn't for me, they all made it look so easy. I don't think even when you stretched it like they suggest it will still be all bouncy and juicy😂
I have fine hair too and I did mini twist but first I blew my hair out so it was stretched and used no products except oil they came out looking full! Try prestretching your hair first
i think it’s because you have fine hair , i usually do my twist on blown out hair and use a butter or crème. i think you should try that next time 🤍 beautiful either way though!!
I loved it sis! I started doing mini twists with my natural hair maybe a year ago or so and since I have a bit of hang time now I’ll blow out or even straighten my hair and when it’s worn out I’ll just go right into the mini twists and I love the length so I completely understand why you was like idk which way to go lol. I usually only use a good moisturizer that doesn’t revert my hair cause ik over time my hair is going to shrink little by little one way or another. With that being said I think we may have a similar hair type although yours is thicker than mine I’ve always noticed that I have alot of hair but when I do styles like this it shows that my hair is thin at the same time.. it’s weird and confusing but in the end I just learned to love it because the style really does help me give my hair a break or put it up when I’m like 😭 girl I need a break from you lol. But none the less your gorgeous and I love your dimples ☺️😍
my hair is fine too and I use mini twists (got some in my head right now). I'm ok that mine will never look like most videos on the internet. I will say I liked how mine came out when I blow dried my hair first and didn't use a lot of product once dry. But the shrinkage is real and that only lasted a couple days so kind of a moot point.
I’m cracking up!!! 😂 That’s my hair too! I do NOT have juicy twists. I have fine strands, medium density, super soft, cottony, frizzy flyaway curls (roughly 3b/3c/4a). So, I do medium twists and wear them in cute pigtails or a ponytail. I do that for a week, then twist out for 2-3 days and finish off my 2 weeks with a high puff. Thank you for this video. We do not all have juicy twists. Not even close! 🤣🤣🤣🫶🏽
I do mine but I never add curling cream. All I do is add leave in conditioner on every strand. Then I twist loosely so it can become fluffy and bouncier. From what I can see, our textures are almost the same. Do it again and maybe do a three strand twist at the beginning, like 3-5 times and then twist to the end
@@deborahboms no, I mean you should begin braiding the hair with 3 strand twists and then complete it with two strands. The same way you’d do it if you’re adding extensions. It should work
It still came out beautiful BUT i think your underlying issue was tension. You pulled on the twist too tight as u twisted, reducing bounce and curl retention. Also you twisted the twists too tight, relax your jands more. Also you maybe should have used more hair for each twist, regular twist and not mini. Thats my opinion but I am trying twists on my 4c hair soo, wish me luck!
This product is trash. The product plays a huge part. Also the technique is off you have to use a tangle teezer to smooth the section before twisting. Also I think that you roll the hair while twisting. If you do that it will curl up. Try to twist without rolling the hair. It will be more elongated. I have fine hair too and get the same type of results with the rolling technique or bad products.
I stretched my hair first. I oil my scalp with hair grease. I spray a small amount of leave in conditioner on my dry stretched hair. I used only a tiny amount of gel and oil on my tips. I don't stretch after, because it's already stretched. You messed up when you stretched after it was already done.
You making me laugh😂. I understand totally what you mean. I can relate...it don't look bad tho. The problem if you start to see how other girls have it then you start to doubt. I does add hair meaning kinky twist to make my hair look fuller and last longer. My hair is also thick but when I twist it it seems fine and delicate. I have it now in twist with my natural hair. I am.thinking to buy kinky twist so it can last long.
nopeeee it's not about your density, I have veryyyy thick, long hair and mine did the same, if you have fine textured hair the twists won't be twisting, which is why I prefer braids, I do the part down the middle and just do two plaits 🙂
Your hair texture is not the same as the ladies you posted. They have looser curls and high density hair. You have a tight curl pattern. The only way to get bouncy and juicy twists like them is to use synthetic that is bouncy before twisting. You won't be able to replicate that look babe so sorry
This is the issue with my own hair, my hair is scanty, low density, fine thin hair, my mini twists look horrible without extensions. So far on youtube, I’ve searched extensively, I’m yet to see anyone with hair as thin and scanty as mine.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂I have subscribed. You are honest but those twists got me laughing. My hair is like yours. Too fine. It styles better as an afro or blow out. Twists are not good on fine hair it seems. Thank you for the lovely video ❤

you are supposed to 3 strand braid it before u twist.

Perhaps. I might give it another shot

You need water. You should spray each section and put product on each section before twisting. And by section I mean each mini twist.

I’m cracking up!!! 😂 That’s my hair too! I do NOT have juicy twists. I have fine strands, medium density, super soft, cottony, frizzy flyaway curls (roughly 3b/3c/4a). So, I do medium twists and wear them in cute pigtails or a ponytail. I do that for a week, then twist out for 2-3 days and finish off my 2 weeks with a high puff. Thank you for this video. We do not all have juicy twists. Not even close! 🤣🤣🤣🫶🏽
I do mine but I never add curling cream. All I do is add leave in conditioner on every strand. Then I twist loosely so it can become fluffy and bouncier. From what I can see, our textures are almost the same. Do it again and maybe do a three strand twist at the beginning, like 3-5 times and then twist to the end
Okay I will try but
Girl… if two strand twists are like this, you want me to try 3 strand twists 😩🤣
@@deborahboms no, I mean you should begin braiding the hair with 3 strand twists and then complete it with two strands. The same way you’d do it if you’re adding extensions. It should work
It still came out beautiful BUT i think your underlying issue was tension. You pulled on the twist too tight as u twisted, reducing bounce and curl retention. Also you twisted the twists too tight, relax your jands more. Also you maybe should have used more hair for each twist, regular twist and not mini. Thats my opinion but I am trying twists on my 4c hair soo, wish me luck!
So sorry I had to laugh first 😂 next time stretch the hair first, aside your normal moisturizer don't add any curling products it will curl itself
😂😂😂 it’s allowed
Okay.. will do!
You have to do it wet. That’s all.
Thank you for sharing this- hairstyles don’t always turn out as we planned and I appreciate you being honest about that with us
As a fine hair girly I have to make my twist a little loose for it to look decent. A tight mini twist will have me looking scary 😂.
This product is trash. The product plays a huge part. Also the technique is off you have to use a tangle teezer to smooth the section before twisting. Also I think that you roll the hair while twisting. If you do that it will curl up. Try to twist without rolling the hair. It will be more elongated.
I have fine hair too and get the same type of results with the rolling technique or bad products.
This cover photo is hilarious!! Great choice haha
I stretched my hair first. I oil my scalp with hair grease. I spray a small amount of leave in conditioner on my dry stretched hair. I used only a tiny amount of gel and oil on my tips. I don't stretch after, because it's already stretched. You messed up when you stretched after it was already done.
Twisting to the right looks bouncier . To the left is more straight, but once you pour water on your hair it kinda blends
I actually think it looks good 🤷🏾♀️😍
I can relate my dear but it doesn't stop me o still do it anyway
😂😂😂
You have the face for it lol 😆 I look a hot mess with my thin “mini” twists
You making me laugh😂. I understand totally what you mean. I can relate...it don't look bad tho. The problem if you start to see how other girls have it then you start to doubt. I does add hair meaning kinky twist to make my hair look fuller and last longer. My hair is also thick but when I twist it it seems fine and delicate. I have it now in twist with my natural hair. I am.thinking to buy kinky twist so it can last long.
nopeeee it's not about your density, I have veryyyy thick, long hair and mine did the same, if you have fine textured hair the twists won't be twisting, which is why I prefer braids, I do the part down the middle and just do two plaits 🙂
so its because my hair is fine then 🥲🥲🥲... glad i know now 😂
@@deborahboms it doesn't matter if it's natural, stretched, straightened, those twists have a mind of their own
Your hair texture is not the same as the ladies you posted. They have looser curls and high density hair. You have a tight curl pattern. The only way to get bouncy and juicy twists like them is to use synthetic that is bouncy before twisting. You won't be able to replicate that look babe so sorry
and honestly yu messed it up it was perfect when yu first did it lol
It's not your hair type. your technique is just off. also your density looks low. It does not look like highly dense hair at all.
Did you figure it out? Im suspecting you might be rope twisting instead of just twisting the hair without twisting first before going over.
You’re missing water! Water is the first step when moisturizing hair and having juicy twists
😂😂😂😂you’re so silly 😜
This is the issue with my own hair, my hair is scanty, low density, fine thin hair, my mini twists look horrible without extensions. So far on youtube, I’ve searched extensively, I’m yet to see anyone with hair as thin and scanty as mine.
I think the problem is moisture overload since you have high-porosity hair.
Why did you use so many heavy products? All you need is a leave in and a sealant. You have fine hair; why use a butter?
I think your hair is too fine, mine does the same thing. Try doing it a little bigger and us less stying products.
yeah, thanks
@@deborahbomsShe's right. (That's the best thing for fine strands.)
I think it’ll look better in a couple of days.
you are so pretty
thank you
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂I have subscribed. You are honest but those twists got me laughing. My hair is like yours. Too fine. It styles better as an afro or blow out. Twists are not good on fine hair it seems. Thank you for the lovely video ❤
Aww thank you 😂❤️
Same here
Afros are my go to
The twist look okay but they will be better when your hair gets longer.
Girl! Who are you telling. I have fine hair and heat damage… I look like a joke lol
Most of the women in those videos have 3C/4A or 4B hair
Add some human hair to the twist
I think the twist was too tight and you over did the twist too
Yeah mini twist makes me look like a scattered chicken
your hair is short and maybe thrie to add oil after and stretch it
Lmao dkm abeg 😂
Low density girls know the struggle
It’s giving boneless twists 😭 just joking! However you have to have alot of thickness in your hair to get the perfect ratio of twists
🥹💀
Yes you have fine low density hair. Nevertheless, the style is cute. Just embrace it.
Thin fine hair is Low Density 😂😂😂.
