Here's the tutorial that helped me do my twist outs. It's from SalonCabelo, I love her hair.

To keep mine tight and from unraveling, I roller the ends on satin rollers and pin them at my nape.

thanks i will look at that. i have noticed when i do my braidouts i have alot more breakage while im wearing my hair in that style. i can run my fingers through my hair and i always have hair in my hands. i dont know why that is my hair doesnt normally do that. Anybody have any ideas why that happens.

Ok ladies, here is the braidout I wore today because I was so inspired by all of the beautiful hair in this thread! 
I'm 12 weeks post relaxer today. Last night, I did a shampoo/dc and airdried for about an hour. While it was still wet (Thanks minni323!), I put it up in four braids:
I'm out of practice with my braiding, so they are a little messy!
Here are the results the next morning:
I plan on wearing this for the rest of this week. I'll try to take and post more pics if I can think of some cute styles to do!

Wish I would have watched this video before I bought my other products! I see where I went wrong yesterday!!! 1st mistake- my hair was still damped and wet... 2nd mistake- I sprayed scurl all over until my hair was damped thinking this was a good thing and all those curls I had somewhat just came out!
But I am trying again today, and will dry it a bit more if it is not completely dry for work. Ill take pics only if it turns out nice!

The very first time I tried a twist out my hair was still wet as well. BIG mistake! I ended up breaking so many strands in the process! I apply my leave ins and let my hair air dry, using the scarf method to flatten my edges. When my hair is about 80% dry, I apply a little coconut oil and then put in the flat twists. If my hair is a little too dry in certain sections I re-wet it a little with my spray bottle.
I hate waiting for my hair to completely dry with the flat twists in. It feels like it takes foorrrrrrrrrreeeeeeeeevvvvvvvvvvveeeeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrrrrr. Especially the back and the ends that are wrapped on the silk rollers. I always have to dry it out a bit with my dryer the next morning.
SingBrina I hope you get lovely results, can't wait to see!

Well I tried it again and the top turned out nice but not the bottom and I had less strands. But I didnt let my hair dry 80% I think I will let it dry more when I do it next time, thanks for that tip. I wont try again for another few weeks, I give up lol.

So this picture was taken at the beginning of my hair journey (a year ago), so it's not a "hair" photo per se. Lol. But it's the only braidout pic I have, so I tried.

Here's a pick of the braid out I did a coupla days ago on my NL hair. Before bed, I did seven cornrows going all back, spritzed with Elasta QP H2, covered with scarf, and then unpicked and fluffed in the morning.

Transition Over
I have some of a bantu knot out. I think I used like six knots.
From the top:
Ponytail:
From the back (you can really see how jank it was):
And a failed braidout. My hair didn't even dry all the way. :
Needless to say, I don't wear these out in public.

Subscribing!! I haven't had a successful twistout or braidout yet I need to know the techniques that you ladies are using. I think once my hair gets longer it will come out better as well. I love this thread!
