The Double Side Twist

I saw these twig bobby pins years go in a Real Simple magazine. Do you remember seeing them?

I fell in love immediately. 

So I did some research and discovered that the artist behind them has so much more than just twig bobby pins. She's integrated nature into jewelry and hair accessories. 

I used her Tiny Twig Pins in this tutorial to show you how to twist hair out of your face, but still keep in chic.

This style can be done on almost any length and any texture. You can use plain bobby pins, Tiny Twig Pins, bobby pins with gems on them, etc.

If you don't have bangs, just include them in the twists! 

Refer to this post to see what's in my hair.

My bottom twist needed to be adjusted after I finished the tutorial and it doesn't look very twisted in the photos. But follow the video for a more twisty look!
