A good idea will be to use a leave-in moisturizing conditioner. Try removing excess water by blotting or squeezing the hair gently with a cotton t-shirt. Do not rub your hair! Don’t use a towel because it will dry your hair out. Also, it will make you hair frizzy and your curls can get tangled in the towel. If your hair has drops of water dripping off the ends it is still too wet and you should continue blotting.
Start by combing the ends of the hair. Once those tangles are gone then slide up an inch or so and (still combing downwards) keep combing until all tangles (from the roots - down) are gone. Use detangling spray (i. e. Kinky Curly Knot Today) for a smoother comb through.
Hold the top and bottom sections separate from each other by using hair clips for each section.
To create three sections on the top part, part the hair running from the crown down to the horizontal part you previously made. Clip each section so they remain separated. To create three sections on the bottom part, part the hair running from the base of your scalp up to the horizontal part you previously made. Clip each section so they remain in place.

It may be easier to work from the bottom to the top so you do not take the chance of messing up the top twists.
Rub the product onto your hands and smooth it into the loose section of hair to be twisted.
You do not need to use a rubber band if you prefer not to. Place the rubber band as close to the roots as possible while taking care to not pull the hair too tightly. Make sure the two separated sections are even.
Allow the ends to curl on each other and apply a small amount of hair gel or cream to hold the twist in place. Apply a small amount of cream or gel to curl the end of the twist and hold it in place. " Repeat the process for the remaining sections of hair.
Barrettes, bows and elastics are normally snapped/tied into place. Beads can be added by sliding them over the ends of the twists far enough up so they stick in place. It’s best to secure the twist with a rubber band to keep the beads in place. Alternatively, you can find beads that clip onto your hair, which are specifically made for styles like the two strand twist.
