Hello Ladies. I received my B.A.S.K. Palm Tapioca Deluxe Hair Cream earlier this week from the swap board on NaturallyCurly.com.
I was super anxious to try it out for some twists. This in not a review for the Palm Tapioca (one will come at a later date once I’ve played with it some more).
Products used for this look:
B.A.S.K. Palm Tapioca
Raw african shea butter
Shea Moisture Sheabutter Leave-in
Original Moxie Hair Bling
♥
First I washed and detangled my hair. I moisturized my hair with the B.A.S.K. Palm Tapioca. I then put my hair in 8 fat twists to air dry.
I waited for my hair to be 70% dry before taking the fat twists down so I can put the flat twists in.
I put in 12 flat twists in total: 3 in the front, 2 above each ear and 5 in the back.
I rewet my ends and sealed with some african shea butter.
Look how plump & shiny they are!

I left my twist in for a total of 4 days.
Every other night I moisturized the twist with water and Shea Moisture’s Shea Butter Leave-in and tied down with a satin scarf.
How I wore my hair on Tuesday for school
♥
To take down the twists, I took a pea size amount of the Original Moxie Hair Bling and spread it in my hands first, then all over the twists to prevent frizz during the take down.
I carefully fluffed and picked out the roots with a comb.
The end results are …. drum roll please …
What I would’ve done different is:
1. Next time I will make sure to seal in the B.A.S.K. with a butter/oil.
2. Make sure that the part in the back for the twists is not directly in the middle. ( I have a cowlick right in the middle so a part right on it makes it look like a bald spot)
3. Not wait so long to take the twists down … maybe 2-3 days max.

Once again, I’m reminded that I need to figure out how to two-strand flat twist!! Beautiful!
Do you get good results with two-strand flat twists and twist-outs?
