new thread
i recently got bored of wearing my hair back in a pony tail all the time, so i thought i'd do something different with it! my girlfriend suggested lots and lots of small twists. with a bit of wax at the end to keep them in place. unfortunately, the back started coming out after a day. lessons were learned, and longer was spent this time. 3 hours to be exact! 57 twists in total. i'll try and post a pic of the finished product. but here is a pic of the first attempt :)as you can probabaly see, too much of my scalp was visable. not the case this time!
Exactly how long is your hair?
I would be careful with repetively twisting the hair in that matter, it could be damaging. That is unless you want dreads of course?
my longest hairs are about six inches past my mid/lower back. so, we're heading for my ass :D
yeah i know what you mean about damaging. i was a little paranoid getting it done. but theyre only twists, and come out very easily. you just untwist them...not like those evil knot forming braids! and no, i do not want dreads! i toyed with the idea for a while, but came to the conclusion that some day i'd probabaly have to cut them off. not so much with clean long hair.
Hi Olsln,
this is a great new style, and it looks really cool on you! It's a good idea to experiment from time to time - one of the best and most versatile "hair experimentators" has been Jarkko, who, unfortunately, has taken down his picture collections from his internet site - he could have given you many more good ideas...
In any case, have fun, and happy growth!

Cool hair but it kinda looks like dreads to me. interesting idea though having it loose in the back as a contrast to the front
Nice braid-like look. Suits you, and looks pretty cool. As long as you're doing it gently to your hair, it shouldn't be a problem.
Looks nice alterative to like you say wearing a popnytail all the time !
Just one question though
When you was having your hair twisted was it Painful to your scalp as it does look somewhat painful to me ?

most of the time it wasnt. but at some points, yes, i did let out a little yelp! its amazing how much pain can be inflicted on you by someone simply pulling on your hair :D
