Two-strand twist

Two sections of hair wound around each other, a common style and set for coily hair.

Also: twists, Senegalese twist

A two-strand twist is made by dividing a section of hair in two and winding the halves around each other down to the ends. On coily hair the twists hold without a band. Twists can be small or large, worn for weeks as a protective style, or taken down to make a twist-out. Senegalese twists, named after Senegal, use extension hair twisted in two strands into long, sleek ropes. Flat twists are made close to the scalp like cornrows.
