The Ultimate Twist-Out Tutorial with Grow Your Edges Back

Sis, if you’ve been dreaming of a flawless, defined, long-lasting twist-out, you’re in the right place. A twist-out is that go-to style that never disappoints whether you want juicy, stretched curls or a soft, voluminous look. And with Grow Your Edges Back products, your results are about to be fabulous! Let’s get into it.


What You’ll Need:

Grow Your Edges Back Moisture Lock Leave-In Conditioner
Grow Your Edges Back Hair Growth Oil
✔ Spray bottle with water
Wide-tooth comb or detangling brush
✔ Sectioning clips
✔ Satin scarf or bonnet


Step 1: Start with Clean, Moisturized Hair

A bomb twist-out starts with a fresh base. Wash and condition your hair using a gentle, moisturizing shampoo and conditioner (you already know Grow Your Edges Back has you covered!). Then, towel-dry your hair until damp never dripping wet.

Pro Tip: If your hair leans on the dry side, add a little extra Moisture Lock Leave-In Conditioner before moving to the next step.


Step 2: Section & Detangle

Part your hair into 4-6 sections to make styling easier. Use a wide-tooth comb or detangling brush to smooth each section. Apply a few sprays of Leave-In Conditioner to each section to add hydration and slip.

  • For tighter coils (4B-4C): Work in smaller sections to ensure each twist is defined.
  • For looser curls (3B-4A): You can get away with chunkier sections for a softer, fluffier twist-out.

Step 3: Apply Your Styling Products

For each section, smooth a few drops of Growth Oil Serum onto your scalp to nourish and protect.

Pro Tip: Don’t be heavy-handed, using too much product can lead to buildup and flaking.


Step 4: Twist Like a Pro

Take small sections of hair and do a two-strand twist, wrapping one section over the other, keeping the twist tight but not pulling too hard.

  • For tighter, springier curls: Do smaller twists.
  • For a chunkier, more stretched look: Opt for bigger twists.

Once done, let your hair air dry completely or sit under a hooded dryer for faster results.


Step 5: Unravel & Fluff

Once your twists are 100% dry, rub a little Growth Oil Serum on your fingers and gently untwist each one. Separate them further for added volume, but don’t over-fluff if you want to keep the definition.

  • For more volume: Pick your roots with an afro pick.
  • For more definition: Separate the twists only once or twice.
