Hello peeps,

I have been making a video again. They are few and far between because I have not found any interesting stuff to do.

But: I'm fast approching knee lenght and I have been dying to find SOME way to get a french twist to work that is simple and non-fussy and to actually wear my Ficcares again and french twists are pretty much THE hairstyle for Ficcares. I have not found another hairstyle that 1. suits me. 2. makes the Ficcare work in my hair. And I don't want to sell the Ficcares.

I took that as a challange, played around for half an hour and this is the result. Enjoy.

Thank you for making another video! I'm glad to know that I will be able to do a French twist all along the way to knee length. By the way, have you seen CinnamonHair's video?

Wow! I had to watch and see how you were going to fit all of that hair in a twist. The twist looks gorgeous. Thank you for sharing!

It looks great, and easy. I'm only just at waist and fine but I love seeing simple styles.
Thanks for making and posting it.

It makes me want to get a Ficarre so that I can try this, but the one I had always pulled out hairs, so I'll resist.
It looks really good in your hair.

I have a ton of Ficcares and they usually behave....although in most styles, they pull an awful lot. But not in this one!

I'll have to try this one. CinnamonHair's version of the French twist doesn't work on me either (it didn't even work when I was at about classic).

Out of curiosity, which of the hairstyles that you have videos for still work for you now you're at nearly-knee? I have a terribly limited repertoire (braided cinnabun, faux crown braid ... and that's about it) and would love to pick up some styles that actually work on classic+ hair.

Thank you Hypnotica! That's the most fool-proof version I have seen.

Check out the messy bun. You don't need to make it messy but it always comes out big and flat.
