What Are Spring Twists?

Spring twists are a type of two-strand twist with a bouncy and springy appearance. The key to creating spring twists lies in using tightly curled braiding hair extensions, which give the style its signature bounce. Compared to other twist styles like Senegalese or Marley twists, spring twists offer a softer, more natural look, while the latter two have a more defined, clean appearance. You can customise your spring twists by choosing the length and colour of the braiding hair. This style also works well on natural hair.

Spring Twists vs. Passion Twists

Spring twists look very similar to passion twists, so you might be wondering what sets them apart. The main differences are that spring twists are lighter, which means less tension on your hair, and passion twists use water wave braiding hair extensions whereas spring twists use tight curly braiding hair extensions.

How To Maintain Spring Twists

• Use a gentle shampoo to cleanse your hair and scalp, especially when dealing with build-up.
• Moisturise your scalp with a lightweight oil to keep it healthy and prevent dryness and itchiness.
• Sleep with a silk bonnet or wrap your hair in a silk scarf to protect it and minimise frizz.
