The neat kinky twist.

                                           

                                      THE NEAT KINKY TWIST.


   When I look at this style,I see two thinks. 1) a short and neat dread lock. 2) a natural hair style         that some ethnic groups wear in east Africa.The style can be short or long and is not to be confused with the Senegalese Twist. It will take about four hours for the short and about six hours for the long version to be done by a professional  braider. The texture of the hair used gives the customers the natural look they actually want.



                                    Here is a variety of that hair do.

           This style is actually an adaptation of a regular Bob done in a hair salon.Remember that in Africa, hair is done according to regions,ethnic groups, age and sometimes particular events such as weddings, baptism, death,or simple social gathering That hair do was very popular in the 90 Th.It is important to know that the short bob can only be done when the client has short hair.
