GET twisted
If your hair is kinky-curly, try the spin on classic Bantu knots at right, says hairstylist Rubi Jones. Instead of tucking in the ends as you normally would, she left the tips out. Jones recommends starting with moisture-protecting products (try Aussie Miracle Curls Co-Wash), and smoothing an edge product, like Pantene Pro-V Gold Series Edge Tamer, over the hairline after it’s dry.
For hair that’s straight or wavy, Jones likes the specified topknot at left: Neaten hair with a little leave-in conditioner (try Seed Phytonutrients Moisture Leave-In Conditioner) and a dime-size dollop of gel or pomade (try R+Co Dart Pomade Stick), then twist it from the nape of your neck to the top of your head. Lock in place with a U-shaped pin and a veil of Fatboy Defining Finish Flexible Hold Hairspray.
