Collection: Twist Braids

Twist Braids

Hair for twists of every kind: Marley twists, kinky twists, spring twists and Jamaican locks. This collection brings together bulk twisting hair and ready-made twist braids from Aftress, Janet Collection, Jinny's Beauty, Outre X-Pression and Soft N Silky.

Which twist hair do you need?

  • Marley or afro kinky bulk: coarse loose hair that blends with natural hair and holds a twist without slipping.
  • Springy afro twist: soft, coiled hair for spring and passion twists.
  • Pre-twisted braids: twists already made, fitted by crochet for a much quicker install.
  • Jamaican locks: long twisted pieces for a loc look without the commitment.

Common questions

Are twists easier than braids? Usually. Two strands are quicker to install and take down than three, though twists can loosen sooner.

How long do twists last? Around four to eight weeks with a satin scarf or bonnet at night.

Are twists a good protective style? Yes, if they are not installed too tightly or too heavy. Tension at the hairline is what causes damage.

Twist Braids FAQs

What's the difference between bulk hair and pre-twisted braiding hair?
Bulk hair is loose and needs to be twisted or braided by hand, while pre-twisted products like locs or passion twists already come shaped into sections ready to install. Check each product's name and description to see which type it is.
How much hair do I need for a full head of twist braids?
This depends on your desired thickness, length and the specific product, so check the pack size and any guidance on the individual product page. If you're unsure, it's often safer to order a little extra.
Can I reuse twist braiding hair?
Some synthetic hair can be reused if it's taken down carefully and in good condition, but this varies by product. Check the specific product's pack instructions or description for guidance.
Will the hair match my natural texture?
Afro kinky bulk hair is designed to blend with natural afro-textured hair, but texture can vary between brands and products. It's worth checking the product photos and description before buying.
How do I care for twist braids once installed?
Care routines vary by hair type and style, so check the product packaging or ask in-store for general advice. Keeping the scalp moisturised and avoiding excess tension at the roots is generally recommended.
