Afro Hair Fundamentals: Mastering the Three-Strand Twist

Before you can create those show-stopping Afro hairstyles, mastering the basics is absolutely essential. We're kicking things off with one of the most versatile and fundamental techniques: twists. While there are two main ways to achieve this look—two-strand twists or three-strand twists—we'll focus on the latter. The big advantage of three-strand twists? They last significantly longer than two-strand twists and are even a fantastic method for starting your loc journey. Get ready as we dive deep into how to perfect your three-strand twists!

Step 1

Before you start, moisturize your hair with a hydrating lotion or a spray bottle of water. Then, use a small amount of styling cream on each strand to ensure the longevity of your hairstyle and add shine.

Step 2

Take a section of hair; if you have short hair, opt for smaller sections so that the twists last longer.

Step 3.

Divide the section evenly into 3.

Step 4

You have your 3 strands in your hands: 1, 2, and 3. Pass strand 1 over strands 2 and 3. Strand 1 is now next to strand 3, making it 2,3,1. Then, pass strand 2 over strands 3 and 1, which now makes it 3,1, and 2. Again, pass strand 3 over strands 1 and 2, making it 1,2, and 3 – we've completed a full turn! Continue this until the end of the hair section.

Step 5

Finish your twist by twisting the end with your index finger.
