Each twist is two strands of the natural hair wound around one another from a small square parting, so the scalp shows a fine grid at the root. Because the sections are tiny, the finished set falls with real swing instead of sitting stiff. Installation is long, often several hours in one sitting, but the twists hold for weeks and can be unraveled into a twist-out at the end rather than wasted.

Suitsoval, square, heart face shapes. The fine individual twists break up a hard jaw and temple line without adding the bulk that would widen the face.
