Wah gwan beautiful people I am Chev B if you're new to this channel welcome wah gwan in today's
tutorial I'm going to show you guys how I achieve the invisible locks twist and show
you guys the best method to do this style for a longer wear I'll also be showing you
the two original methods and the pros and cons of doing this style with those methods
okay y'all now jumping straight into the video I wanted to show you the two methods that I saw on
how to do this style and this first one is mostly for non-breeders it will help mostly with the grip
but I will tell you later on what problems that I had with this method so it is a little bit more
work out of the two methods so first you have to create two sections then a subsection from each
then you breathe the bottom end crochet the hair through the bottom end then you're going to twist
the top part to mix it with the bottom to create that flat twist type of look now with this method
it is super easier for non-breeders to twist the hair in as opposed to feeding it in however with
this method I found that the hair poofed up way too fast for me and twisting in certain directions
becomes a challenge now for the second method this is mostly for people who are breeders and know how
to feed in and this is a more natural looking method out of the tube and I liked this method
how the finish look was however to feed it in was a little bit of Challenge on where to twist it and
also to get the hair to stay in place if you can't read like I know I do a lot of styles but feeding
is not my strong suit and y'all my boyfriend was sleeping on the floor this entire time because I
was having so much trouble with completing this look because I had to retwist so much of it to
get the look to how I wanted now this is how it was looking at first it wasn't looking exactly
like the invisible locks especially because I was using the wrong hair and also waking up in
the morning the entire head was puffy and it was just a mess so moving on to my method first of
all out you need to have this here this is what all the tutorials that I saw they all use Cuban
twist whether it was shake and gold brand or it was freetress on Amazon but this was the Cuban
hair that iPhone the Q and twist the iPhone and my local beauty supply store and also the girl
in The Beauty Supply Store told me to get this paw made because she was like this is what she used to
retwist her locks I'm like okay girl I'm gonna get it it was hella expensive it was like 17 Canadian
dollars okay and at first I used the shot and drop magic fingers and that was working against
metal noise it was a formula change but my hair was reverting and it wasn't helping with helping
um the flat twist to stay flat now we're going to move on to my method of creating this style
so after redoing my hair for the umpteenth time and getting frustrated I decided to just remove
the whole thing and just try something different so my method is plaiting your hair like leaving
a couple of inches from your roots and this is going to be helping with my status and also to
uncurl the hair without having to do all the extra work and also to prevent tugging as you
stop as you saw earlier I um I separated my edges from the flat twist because it's a high tension
hairstyle honestly so you don't want to involve your edges in this type of twist work you feel
me so now I crocheted the hair through my hair and we're going to leave space in between so you
want to make sure that you have that space now what I've learned to do is pre-twist my hair to
see the direction in which I twist in order to see which direction I'm supposed to flat twist
so this was a problem for me which caused me to retwist the hair over and over again previously
the night before because it just wasn't stain right because my flat twist was in the opposite
direction of how I was twisting the hair so you want to do like a pre-twist type of trial run
before you actually twist the hair now I put the Pomade on the section make sure that it's nice and
flat another swirl that around I went with number 30 color because I was like you know what this is
what suits me like I like this type of color so I'm like you know what the black was falling flat
for me and I want to try this so I twist all the way down to mimic how people with natural locks
how their hair look when they get a freshly twist so that is what I am going for instead of doing a
super flat twist and then it's too much of my hair to work with and then it's all poofy so
now by doing this method I just go straight into twisting the hair together I don't have to feed in
I don't have to do anything extra and I'm going to take some Maurice b swags to help to keep my
hair tucked in and also to keep the hair in place now if you're gonna do color like I did you you're
going to eye how much hair pieces of hair you want to put in in order to hide your hair and then I
measure the bottom of the twist to how I want the Bob to shape and then I start rolling the hair
upwards to create the barrel on the bottom now I already had black elastic but I didn't think that
I was using color so I could have gotten clear elastics to give the invisible um look thought at
the bottom but it's fine it still works out great I'm going to show you guys how I did the back now
I only use two mirrors I know there's this mirror on Amazon that some people use that's like give it
like a 360 type of view so if you want that you can get it because I'm about to get it too but I
um discovered it a little bit too late so I just use the mirror in front of me angle it a certain
way and use a mirror in the back now honestly The Parting is what took the longest because it's a
little bit hard and challenging to part your own in here but I did watch a video on here on how
to part and it helped tremendously now I'm a girl I'm not gonna say I'm lazy when it comes to doing
these Styles but it's like I don't want to do it too small because I don't like too much tension
on my head and the smaller the partings are it's a little bit more tension so I opted to do like
a what do you call that schmido type of um size so I'm just wrapping making sure my hair is hidden to
give like an ombre type of finish in the back and that's basically it so I'm going to keep showing
you my method because it helps tremendously and also with this method that I'm doing waking up
in the morning because this is the the second days I'm making this voiceover waking up in the morning
my hair was still fly it was still in place like everything worked out so it's all about choosing
the correct hair so you want to use the Cuban twist and I use four packs of this hair and also
you want to make sure that you get a really good braiding gel art Pomade like you need that with
all this twisting and stuff like you need good luck gel like it's essential also to mention the
name because a lot of people were confused so invisible locks is not necessarily locks
obviously it's a Twist but it's supposed to mimic what natural locks look like when they're freshly
redone and then put in twists with barrels at the end so hence the name invisible locks
now moving on to the front now for the front it's going to look more flat Twisted because
of the space that I parked so it was a little bit more elongated in the front which I don't
mind because it was still pretty cute and it gave that natural look like a fresh retwist so
I'm going to show you guys My Method a couple more times so that you guys could get it so you
don't have to twist all the way down and if you have longer hair this could still work for you
because as you guys I didn't cut the hair itself I just bended the hair and also I wanted to add
a little bit of Razzle Dazzle so this style so I was going for like a goddess type of look as
well so what I do is I crochet the hair into um my hair at the base and instead of crocheting the
curly hair afterwards to make it stick out on top I decided to make sure that it's blended with the
with the twist itself so I go upwards crocheting the hair and then for some sections depending on
how big they are I put like a little bit more peace in it and what I like about the cube and
here as well Cuban twist hair is that it comes in pre-sections so you'll you'll use I literally use
one piece for every twist like I split it in half for each side and that's basically it so also to
mention when you're flat twisting especially the front if you do a long gated type of look
um you want to get these little hair clips like the iron looking ones because that is what's going
to help you to pull it down before you actually twist so that the flat twist stays in place now
if you get black hair you don't have to be doing a more focused type of twist like I'm doing to
try to blend my hair because if you're doing black hair or a color here that matches yours
The Twist will be way easier to do so you don't have to be like taking your time and trying to
wrap the hair around and as you saw I separated the curly hair um from The Twist itself before
I go any further just to make sure that it's not Blended in and then um I have that goddess
look now I'm not going to be using a lot of this curly hair because you know with freetress type
of hair any type of synthetic curly hair after a while they get matted in um your braids so I
didn't want to put too much I just wanted a little bit more of a Voom in the style
looking like and I'm super tired I went to bed because girl two days of trying to figure out
this style because I did it with the black old tree here and it was a mess I'm like nowhere
like I want this style so I had to pull it out wash my hair and redo it like I was dead tired
I went to bed for like a good six hours and I'm like yeah we're refreshed and ready to go so
what's the hair this is what the hair is looking like after I'm done I'm just gonna put some mousse
um onto the curls just to help them stay in place you know you need a good move when you're using
any type of synthetic curly hair in your braids so um you're gonna need to refresh this on a
daily now this is what the hair is looking like in I am in love now I put my own twist to this
style and I couldn't be happier I realized that it wasn't working for me in the beginning because I
wasn't doing a Chevy type of thing usually with any type of style I try to find my own way of
doing it and also ways to help people who can't breathe that well and can't feed in so you know
like obviously would have made sense if I was trying to do it like a braider it is looking
neat it is looking together and I am absolutely in love with this style like the color the the
barrels everything and I think I want to do it a little bit shorter I'm not sure I wanted a shorter
Bob but it's giving let me know what you guys think about the look I will leave the link to the
