If you missed the photo tutorial on how to make bantu knots, check it out here!
For better bantu knot out results, please keep the following in mind:
- If the hair is damp during the “take down”, there will be frizz. Make sure the knots are completely dry.
- To release the knots, it’s better to find the ends, then gently unwrap in the opposite direction of the wound coil. (My hair isn’t long, so I just tug & pull to release the knots. If you do this, please note: it creates frizz.)
- For a more defined look, don’t comb/pick/tease the hair past the roots. Do, for a more natural look.
- Step 3 is completely optional.
Okay. Let’s get into it…
Gorgeous! I have yet to try Bantu knots.
Thanks Faith!
I came back …i tried this last week i think i did them too tight i guess, they didn’t come out as nice as yours.
Thanks for coming back!
This is absolutely gorgeous. My hair is in a protective style but as soon as I take these twists out, you’ve inspired me to do bantu knots.
Cool! Thank you Michelle!
