The back half remains loose, allowing rich, hydrated coily texture to cascade down the shoulders. The flat twists protect the fragile front hairline from daily combing and environmental friction. The color palette pairs deep espresso coils with gold accent cuffs.

Step-by-Step Styling Guide

  1. Section Crown: Create a clean horizontal part running from ear to ear across the crown.
  2. Flat-Twist Top: Divide the top section into 4 to 6 equal vertical panels. Flat-twist each panel tightly backward toward the crown center.
  3. Secure Top Knot: Gather the ends of the flat twists into a small top bun or puff using a satin scrunchie.
  4. Fluff Back Coils: Apply curl cream or leave-in conditioner to the unbraided back section, finger-coiling or picking out for maximum volume.
