After so many failed attemps to do a french twist, I finally succeeded. I don't know what I did differently, but for some reason this one turned out.

Beautiful french twist! I realized my hair is getting longer and need to figure out a new method to tuck in ends. You did a wonderful job with much longer hair.:applause

Very, very nice! I remember my first french twist. ... It was one of two I've ever done. I hope you are more successful than me! :lol:

Congratulations, it looks very nice. I don't have very good french twist skills. Mine look like a big ugly lump on the back of my head.

That's a lovely twist. I can't wait until my hair is a bit longer to do this and not have the ends fall out.

Very nice. I've been working on trying a French twist, but I can't seem to get it to hold in place.

Anybody want to recommend a good French twist instructional video?

You did a great job with the twist. Wonderful hair toy too.

That's really pretty! Whenever I try to do one, it always looks like I have some elongated alien head. Or maybe I'm just paranoid. :cool:

For 24 inch, a method on Ficcare.com (http://ficcare.com/videos.aspx) might be good. This works well with Flexi-8, too.

Flexi8 site also has an instructional video (http://www.flexi8.com/instructions.html?id=huh9qzcV).

With a stick, I found this youtube video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kM0AQG1WwCs) helpful.

Yippee! It looks great. You certainly suit the french twist style. It really shows off your hairs beautiful shine. Gorgeous Ficcare by the way.

Congratulations! It's a lovely sized one, too! I just CANNOT make one - it's like my hair is too long, but after seeing some of the ladies here do it with much longer hair, I know it's me that is wrecking it.

This is lovely! No matter how good I get at styling my hair, I can never ever manage to do a nice looking french twist.

You're my hero!

Thanks, Akiko. The one from the Flexi8 site looks incredibly simple and clear -- will be trying this as soon as I get home!
