Easy Two-Strand Twists (Long Hair)

It has been a minute since I sat in front of my camera and recorded a hair tutorial! To be honest, I was inspired to do this protective style after styling my daughter’s hair. I have been in a creative rut because I have been struggling with postpartum hair loss since having baby E.

My hope is to record a video and share my story on postpartum hair loss soon. But today, I will be sharing how you can do this easy hairstyle and it won’t require too much effort.

Two-Strand Twists are easy to do and it is the perfect hairstyle if you are looking for a one that is easy to manage. This hairstyle is also perfect if you are in need of low-manipulation hairstyles that don’t require you to style your hair every day. This style took me a little longer to do (thanks to my new length). When styling my two-strand twists, I noticed that since my hair is much longer the weight of my hair hindered my hair’s volume.

Interested in trying it out? Watch the Natural Hair: How To Do Two-Strand Twists On Long Hair video. I also have other hairstyle videos featuring a two-strand twist if you would like to see the difference in my hair now versus when it was shorter. Trust me, it’s a pretty big difference. 

In a few weeks, I will be sharing how I also created this hairstyle for M. Let me tell you: She absolutely loved it and she can’t wait until I style her hair like it again. The goal is to keep it simple and easy to do. I hope this post gives you a little inspiration for you to try it for yourself.
