Hey, my blessed naturals!
I hope you are having a great week. Yesterday, I tried doing a twist and tuck protective style using the Kinky (Marley) Twist (100% Kanekalon) braiding hair by Femi. I usually use straight Kanekalon hair by the Sassy or Janet Collection, but I like the textured hair better because it matches mine. Here are my style details:
Hair: Kinky Twist Braiding Hair from the Femi Collection
Price: $4.99 (straight extensions were like $1.00-2.00 per pack)
Place: local beauty supply store, online
Packs: a little over 1 1/2

This pic was taken at the beginning of the year when I first tried the style with the straight hair. Plus, the color was not matching lol. I chose 1B instead of #1, which is the darkest color. It didn't stand out as much as it did in the pic. So, I still wore the style to work anyway! LOL, I used 2 packs of hair fo it.
On to the Kinks...

1BlessedNatural: Here's a weave hack lol. If I need to braid or twist the hair before styling, I'll put one end of the hair in a closed draw. |
1BlessedNatural: Still wrapping... |
1BlessedNatural: The other side... |
In all...
I was happy with my results. I know what to do next time. So, I might do a follow-up post if you all are interested! Let me know in the comment box.
