Introduction

Hey everyone, welcome back to my channel! Today, we're going to tackle a fun hairstyling project - jumbo passion twists. My client specifically requested a jumbo style, so that's what we'll be creating today. In this article, I'll walk you through the step-by-step process of achieving this trendy and versatile look. So, let's get started!

Preparing the Hair

To maximize the number of twists we can achieve with one pack of hair, I like to start by cutting the hair in half. This way, we have more sections to work with. I usually use about eight pieces of hair per twist, but for the middle section, I use slightly less since it tends to be thicker.

Creating the Jumbo Passion Twists

Now that the hair is ready, it's time to start creating the twists. I've already parted the back of my client's head, and we'll be doing two twists in this area. Instead of using a crochet needle, I've opted for a different technique to minimize any potential damage to my client's hair. Although using a crochet needle is a common and safe method, I wanted to try something new and less time-consuming.

Using Rubber Bands vs Crochet Needle

Before I begin twisting, let's talk about the use of rubber bands. I find that using rubber bands instead of crochet needles can be more efficient in terms of time and effort. However, it's important not to make the sections too tight with the rubber bands to ensure the hair can easily pass through. In the video, I demonstrate how to cover the rubber bands by taking one piece of extension hair and crossing it over into the other section.

Securing the Twists

As I twist the two sections together to the right, I continue to twist each individual section to the left. This technique helps maintain the shape and structure of the twists. To keep everything neat and tidy, I also apply a product to my hands and smooth down the hair as I go. It's also beneficial to cover the client's natural hair with the extension hair as much as possible to minimize frizz as the twists age.

Product Recommendations

For this jumbo passion twist style, I recommend using Edge Booster around the edges of the client's hair as it provides a stronger hold. Throughout the rest of the hair, I use Shiny Jam, which not only helps to hold the style but also adds conditioning properties.

Maintaining the Style

Many of you are curious about how long these styles last. According to my client, she was able to keep her first set of jumbo passion twists for a month. Although she had to retwist some of the twists, it wasn't a difficult process. This time, we used rubber bands instead of elastic bands to ensure longevity. Elastic bands tend to pop after a while, so it's best to use rubber bands for a longer-lasting style.

Cutting and Final Result

Once we reach the ends of each twist, we measure the length using a previous twist as a guide. It's important to maintain a consistent length for all the twists to create a cohesive and polished look. When cutting, I recommend leaving a small curl at the end instead of cutting directly at the rubber band. This adds a cute and playful touch to the overall style. Check out the video or images to see the final result - it's absolutely beautiful!
