Requirements for look:
- Any length hair (you just need enough hair to hold onto and twist.)
- Oil (Optional) – to help reduce extra frizz and give hair a shine
How to do the style:
For my Chunky Twist-Outs I do “big” two strand twists using my Creamy Leave-In conditioner and then my mixed sealing oil. Occasionally I will use my DIY Flaxseed Gel however I prefer a more “fluffier” result so I skip the Gel. I normally like to do the Twists on dry hair (occasionally on wet hair) again so that I get fluffy results. They are done the day before and taken down the next morning after letting them set overnight. I use bobby pins to hold down the Twists at night and a scarf to cover them. In this particular example I did dry Twists on Day 5 hair (roughly 13 – 15 Twists in total.)

- Closeup look of the twists
- I use a tiny bit of my DIY Mixed Sealing Oil to avoid frizz while undoing the Twists
- I start to unwind the Twists
- I go in the opposite direction of how I Twisted my hair
- Once I undo all the Twists I separate them a few times
- This is what it looks like once I have separated them all
- I fluff and lift my roots because I do not like the “flat top look”
- After fluffing I arranged my hair
- Voila – done
What is your Chunky Twist-Out method? I would love to hear from you!
