I get a very defined twistout from "dry hair". I spray a little aloe vera juice, add Shea Moisture Deep Treatment Masque, detangle, and twist. Actually, I FLAT twist because I like for my hair to lay down more. Thanks for sharing your tips!

Tip-- ALWAYS do a twist out with some sort of holding product i.e. gel, pudding, etc. It really helps for the twists to set and lock together, so you don't have to be re-twisting all the time! LOL Mistake-- Twisting in big sections. Oh boy! My hair is medium density, but it still is quite fluffy and thick after I finish washing it. So, that is probably why I normally fail at twist outs and I wear wash and go's more often. Please, never twist in biiiiiig sections if your hair is thick and you don't want your twists to be unraveling the whole time!

This is soo true. The bigger the twists, the quicker they unravel before I move on to the next section. Smaller twists really work for me.

Late to the video but great tip!!! My thing is trying to figure out how to moisturize my hair so that’s it’s not dry but has a firm hold.

I find that doing twist outs on damp almost dry hair, not freshly washed hair, really helps with definition, moisture retention and curl esp on 4b, 4c hair. A creamy leave in and a thick butter works for moisture and definition and a dab of gel on the ends if ur ends won't coil. Hope this helps someone.

A leave-in with milk in it helps.

I know this video is old but can I just tell you. I followed India's technique to the tee when doing a twist out of course using products that I already have on hand. After 2 1/2 years of being natural by following her technique I achieved my best twist out ever this week. I couldn't be more happier and from here on out this will be my go to style. Thank you India for sharing.

I did my twist out exactly as you said. The results were perfect! I've received numerous compliments! Thank you so much for your tutorial, it is by far one of the best I've seen on the Internet. You are a beautiful black woman. Has anyone ever told you that you bear a striking resemblance to Yolanda King (Dr. Martin L. King's oldest daughter)?

I will never get enough of two strand twist out videos because I love videos that show styles related to hair and healthy hair practices. Thank you for sharing.

OMG. I hadnt even thought to use the Cantu Shea Butter Twist and Lock Gel before. it makes every style I try come out exactly the way I want! THANK YOU.

yes there are many videos on twist outs but I am so glad you decided to share your method with us, your video offered a lot of good tips, thank you.

The detangling brush is a beast! Thanks for the product knowledge!!!

First of all, I love love love your hair!!!! Second, you help me define the true way of twisting without fuzzing!!!! Thirdly,Thank you so much!!!!

Thank you for this. I wore my hair in dreds for over 10 years and I just took them out a couple of months ago so I am new on this journey of natural hair. There is so much information out there on different products and it can be overwhelming. My twist outs have turned out frizzy most times than not so your video is very helpful. I will definitely keep following you!!!!

This video came right on time! I am doing my big chop tomorrow after nearly 13 months of transitioning, and I want to do a twist out as my first style. These tips were very helpful.

THANK YOU !! my hair has been getting better and better with twist outs and has been growing

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!! I needed to be reminded to take my time untwisting. I'm guilty of forcing them to separate resulting in lots of frizz. I did this last night and took my time this morning and am rocking a fabulously defined twist out today! Thanks!

I watch of you alls videos because I am transitioning from locs and a big chop to growing my hair out and I cannot WAIT until my hair grows to try all of these styles

This was awesome. I wasn't making mine this small because my hair is so thick but now I will because I love the defines curls. Also I can't wait to watch the video on the products you use because I think the type of product is a huge help.

Loved this! My hair is naturally very kinky with tight coils, but I really wanted to learn how to achieve that look throughout my entire head and more neatly. Thank you for speaking so clearly and explaining so well! xx

Thank goodness for tip #13 and #14. There was a lot of confusion on that part for me, especially when it comes to breaking apart the curls to create more volume. I'm glad to hear you say to just leave it alone if it doesn't want to *naturally* separate. You completely saved me on wasted time and frizzy hair, thank you!

I am sooo glad you made this video. my " aha ha" moment" was when you said to separate your hair only where the hair naturally starts to separate. The was Great info for me. now my twist out are no frizzy. THANK YOU

I haven't done a twist out yet but you have just inspired me to do one. You've also inspired me to cut the damage out of my hair. Thank you. ♥♥♥

Always loved your videos India because it is so good to see a girl on youtube who looks like me! The other day people were making fun of my natural hair I don't know what I should do.

Some people aren't yet "comfortable" with natural hair. I know I used to think that my hair wasn't professional or sleek unless I straightened it. Nothing could be further from the truth. Your hair is beautiful, you are beautiful! God made you this way. Don't be too worried by what others think or say, just let go and be a curly girl! (and watch other tutorials, if its not twist outs, there are a TON more styles out there for you!!). :):)

Natural Sistas & Brothas, because i used this tutorial and managed to get it to look like similar to this. i love it!!! plz keep at it!

this was one of the best tutorials I have seen. I am going to try some of these tips on my next twist out. I am usually rushing to take my twists out. This lets me know to take my time.

I love this. Thank You for making this video. I'm 8 months into being a natural and I love twist outs but could never get it right. Mostly dealing with my ends and separation. Appreciate it !

Thank you so much, as my hair gets longer and thicker. I didn't realize I would need to do smaller sections, but when I did I achieved the look I was going for!!! Your tutorial was very helpful, and your hair is always gorgeous😍

Beautiful, I have done twist outs, 3 strand twists and braid outs still trying to figure out which one suits my hair the best since my hair is that middle of the road stage...this was a great video thanks for sharing!

Adding products to the ends as an extra measure is a BIG plus! Thanks!

Thank you so much! My hair is this length and I've been experimenting with my twist out! This just helped me to define it more. I wasn't using a detangler so I'm going to see how that works. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

Thanks so much your tips were truly helpful. I`ve only been natural for about almost 2 yrs. I`m learning to allow my hair to dry a little before twisting it. Your hair looks gorgeous.

wow, the way you take your twists down will probably help me keep my definition a lot longer. Thanx for this video!!

Bless u sister i just had my aha! Moment last sunday. I found this vid while roaming on youtube looking for tips. I ve been in the natural game for 4 yrs & my twist outs always look incomplete and wrong and just not nice so i were them in buns. But this vid has been helpful. I ve a day 4 hair which has never happened. Also ur vid on u cutting ur heat damaged hair encouraged me to cut mine which i ve been avoiding for yrs. Thank u

Love the way your twist turned out!!! Thanks for sharing. 🙂

your tips worked so well on my 4c hair. My aha moment was the setting cream and unraveling the twists, it also helped to do them smaller.

Such a teacher with the "aha moments", love it.

Learned so much! Ive had troubles finding what works for my hair! Definitely will try this

Thank you for this. Just started to wear my hair natural to work and really needed this.

Woow i learn so much. My twistout always come out frizzzy. Thank you,God bless you . Always amazing to visit your channel. You guys helped me more then you'll ever know its been a year know thay my hair has been growing back after a lot of breakage and dryness cause by stress but know it healthy and strong and your tips and confidence really help me too

This video was very helpful! I had my aha moment during the separating part. I usually force the separation to make it fuller in which result in too much frizz. I never thought to allow my hair to separate where it wants to and then use a pick to fluff the roots. I will give this a try and see what happens. Thank you so much!!

This video helped so much ... Not forcing the twist apart just clicked and made sense. I should of known that . Thanks for this video

This was really helpful, I have been struggling with my twist outs forever and a day. Thank you.

Love your hair! And Its like we all know the tips but seeing the tips on an successful twist out is reassuring and makes me think, "I know that; why don't I didn't I do that last time?!" Great video!

Letting the twists separate on its on was a great tip!! Trying it tonight!! My twist outs are always a hit or miss!

Perfected the twist out and in luv with my hair again thank you for the inspiration

Hands down the best twist-out tutorial I've ever seen! Thank you for these great tips ^.^

I live by separating and smoothing the hair while twisting it. It makes it so much smoother and the hair is easier to split and fluff during take down! I might try the lock and twist gel too!

I definitely am one of those who never mastered a defined twist out on my own. Thanks for the video. I'll incorporate these tips into my regimen the next time I try a twist out again.

The techniques of smoothing the twists while twisting and coiling the ends with extra product have always allowed for my twist-outs to come out lovely. :) Great tips!

Excellent. I have not been using holding product, always did the separation in the middle, causing knots, and I do not separate my hair. I need to try these tips! Thank you!

Great video! Once I do my twists, I put them in bantu knots to give a nice curl to the hair so that it is not straight when I take them down. It gives it a nice look too!

Definitely gonna try a holding product the next time I do a twist out. Also, great tip about the take down method and minimizing frizz.

Thank you for sharing! The twist out is my signature style for the past 6 months. I use a combination of oils with raw shea butter. I use Murray loc lock gel to twist.

After watching this and the classic look video, I decided to finally try a twist out. My ah-ha! moment was using the flexi rods to achieve the look I would want. And my biggest lesson from watching these is DON'T TAKE SHORTCUTS. Girls, you should see how cute my hair came out today!!!! Let's pray to the hair gods that my hair will look this good tomorrow LOL. Please post a video on how to keep this style after working out. I'm so glad you posted this! Even though there are tons of twist-out videos, there are very few who get it right.

Pretty much the only style I wear are twist outs so I have somewhat perfected it :-) Making sure the section is thoroughly detangled, including the root AND using a gel on top of my moisturizer is what has really helped me. Great vid India!

Your twist-out came out so beautiful. I don't do 2 strand twist-outs like this because they never come out the way I want them too. But what I do are flat twist-out which for me work a lot better.

i love this. i have only been natural for a week now but excited to one day try this

I'm watching this and I am just admiring her hair, especially the white hairs. At 19, I have a ton of them across my head as well so it makes such a nice contrast when I do natural hair styles (although idle hands tend to stray towards my hair in an attempt to pluck them out without asking -_-). Such beautiful sisters with equally gorgeous hair. I really do enjoy watching this channel.

Extremely helpful video. Thank you! I will be trying this soon!

I tried these tips and finally...finally, my twist outs worked! Thank you!

Nice! I used the same twist and loc gel on my 4c hair and it worked great, when I untwisted my hair it was really soft and defined as well. Great video ^_^

Thank you so much. Tried this today and it turned out fabulous.

Great vid. My twist-outs and braid outs are beginning to look like this now (ie minimum frizz and hella shiny). What I have found is that smoothing my hair throughout the whole process of maintaining my hair almost trains the cuticle to lay down and therefore gives me shiny, defined and almost frizz free hair.

Love your hair, your energy and your makeup.

Agreed with all of these! I feel like one of the most important was number one! I learned early on that damp hair was the key to great twist outs! Loved it! Thumbs up and subscribing!

Nice tips..... I almost was about to give up on twist outs, but your last tips really just made me understand what I was doing wrong!!!!! Thanks!!!!

I'm struggling so much with my twist out. Thank you so much, very helpful.

Thanks so much im almost all natural and ive been trying to get a more defined twist out and it always looks a mess...these tips are just what I needed and I see where I was going wrong...thank u thank u thank u!!!

This is so helpful, I never thought to use twist and lock cream or detangler. Thank you because I was getting frustrated.

Thanks for the tips...I'm using these steps NOW...looking forward to the results. I have not tried these methods..Thanks again

loooooove the video!!!My hair adores the Knot on my watch product

Thank you so much for these tips! One thing I was doing wrong was forcing my twists to separate instead of moving on to the next twist, and yes it causes a lot of unnecessary frizz. When you know better, you do better :-)

I am faithfully on KZread for ideas for my natural hair. This video is the first video that I have seen that goes into detail on how to do twist outs and how to properly undo them to get the defined curls. I have tried the techniques from other videos and could never get the defined curls, but I am hopeful that this video will help. Will do my twists tonite.

I think my problem is I get to caught up on separating the twists that they lose their curl 😔 but my hair isn't really that thick so my twist out looks like it needs that separation. I'll try picking my roots instead.

Yes this is what I've been waiting for!

Thanks, for the video. Never tried pick my hair out to add volume after a twist out. I will try this.

Straighted my hair a couple days ago, smh I can't wait to try this method! I've also been separating my coils at the roots.. No bueno AND my sections are bigger. So trying this tomorrow! Thhhaaank you!

I love your videos they have helped me a lot. I haven't been natural very long but the short time I have I been natural learned so much.

Thank yooooou, this video was very helpful, four years natural and I still can't get it right.

Oh my gosh! Soooo helpful! Mines always come out so fizzy and sticking everywhere. I'm going to start using a locking gel of some sort to keep my twist outs together. =) Thanks for the video.

Thank you, thank you,thank you soo much!! My twistout is the best it's ultra defined now that I've watched your hair tutorial.

This video is great, India! I've mastered few different techniques also, but was really looking forward to seeing your process and having a bit more insight. One thing that I had added to my take-down process that may help some other ladies reading comments is oil-soaking the ends of twists. Since my hair is even more thick, dense and frizzy than some, it allows me to pull twists apart without having to run my hand down the entire twist as long as I've carefully coiled the ends as you've done. Love it! Thank you again for being an inspiration! :):)

Your vids are always so helpful!👏

Thank you for keeping this posted

Your hair is gorgeous!! Thanks for sharing these tips. Just subbed.

This is more a comment than a tip- If you have multiple textures of hair on your head, some sections won't hold a twist or a twistout worth a darn. You can leave the twists intact in those areas (if they are small) or use a pipecleaner to make a tiny coil or do a braidout (in those sections only) to camouflage the differences and avoid having one or more fuzzy areas. Thanks for posting, your twistout looked marvelous! P.S. Can you put a list of products used in the description box for quick reference?

Very helpful. Been natural for 16 months and have trouble with my twist outs. I need to make my sections smaller and wait til my hair is damp and not soaking wet.

Thank you so much for this video! I'm trying this today!

Thank u!! This helped. I was taking my twist and pulling apart from the root!

So, I have been practicing my twist outs lately. I always do two strand twists but never a twist out. If I do a bigger twist definitely see more frizz than if I do a smaller twist. So trial and error for me until I get that perfect twist out. Great video!!

On my second big chop and trying to get my twistout right. What I'm doing wrong is starting on soaked hair. Also my sections were too big. Many thanks for posting your techniques! You rock!!! :-)

Fantastic tutorial! Stunning results!

Never get burned out on twist out tips. Thanks so much! I'm having issues getting a nice twist out. Looking for some wash n go tips too.

Oh, thank you soooo much!!!! You are right about there being too many twist out tutorials, but I always, always find myself wondering after trying each technique, "why doesn't mine look like that? why is my hair so frizzy?" This video was great. I can't wait to try these tips!

ABSOLUTELY love this!!! It came out so beautiful!! I always struggle with twist outs, but i’ll try your tips out with confidence, i think they’ll really work for me this time! ^_^

Love it, I'm a newbie. This will help me so much,thank you!!!

love, love, love the video and your hair is gorgeous, thanks for the tips.

With my hair it depends on the products I use, and I am definitely a definition girl. Some products I don't even have to retwist or cover my hair at night and the definition is still there for at least 3 days. Some only leave me with definition for a day and I have to retwist and others are just not for my hair. I've been on this journey now for a year and a half(3rd time) and have learned so much about my hair. This was a nice video!

Excellent video. We are going to try these tips out!!

Yes Thank you soooo supper dupper much, I have been STRUGLIN I will try your technique soon, God Bless You As Well Sister Alanda

Giiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiirrrrrrrrllllllllll! That was a lifesaver! Thank you for your generosity. I will try it and check out the product video because my twistouts tend get frizzy about an hour later. Also, refreshing the next day is hit or miss. Either is looks passable or I have helmet hair. I'll look at more of your tutorials. Thanks again.

I love your hair shape :D and that came out so cute!! I use coconut and olive oil (mixed together) then detangle my hair with a wide tooth comb or denman (it depends on section size) then twist with raw African Shea butter.
