So, I have developed a “chunky twists” obsession that began a couple months ago. If you know me, you know I usually live in twists, but they are typically small or medium and rarely ever chunky. Now, back to a couple months ago; I don’t know how, but the chunky twist bug bit me, so I went searching for some style inspiration online. There were so many gorgeous and creative looks that I thought I’d share some of my favorites with you all:
1. Top Knot Bun with a Twist
This model is Jessica (whom you can find on Instagram @jessohno_shedid), and her twisted top knot is super cute! Here are instructions for the style found on DIY Natural Hair Care:
1. Secure your hair to the top of your head with a ponytail holder.
2. Twist the ends of your ponytail into chunky twists.
3. Pull the hair forward and tuck them under to the front.
4. Secure your hair with pins.
5. Add gel to the edges and brush lightly.
