Twists

What to Expect During the Appointment

Each twists appointment is built around healthy, well-prepped hair.

• Quick consultation to discuss twist size, length and finish
• Shampoo and a conditioning or hydration treatment
• Thorough detangling, then sectioning into neat parts
• Twisting each section from root to tip with even tension
• Optional light heat or diffusing to help set the shape

Senior stylists Lisa Reeve and Donna Brookes, along with stylist Kasie Pearce, are experienced in working with textured hair, so you can talk through the size and density of twists that will suit your hair best.

Who This Style Suits

Twists work particularly well for clients with natural, curly or coily hair, though results and hold time may vary on straighter textures.

• Clients wanting a protective style that reduces daily manipulation and heat styling
• Those who like the option of two looks: defined twists, then a bouncy twist-out once removed
• Anyone with colour-treated hair, where extra hydration is recommended to keep hair healthy while twisted

Aftercare and Longevity

With the right care, twists typically look neat for 1 to 3 weeks.

• Wash gently every 7 to 10 days, focusing shampoo on the scalp
• Moisturise regularly with light leave-in conditioners or oils, paying attention to the ends
• Protect twists overnight with a satin or silk bonnet, scarf or pillowcase
• Avoid heavy products and over-manipulation to prevent buildup and stress on the hair

When twists start to look fuzzy, a light spritz of water and re-twisting loose sections can refresh the style, or you can book a professional refresh appointment.
