Marley Twist

Marley Twist

Marley Twists are a popular protective hairstyle created by twisting textured synthetic hair extensions (often called “Marley twists”) with your own hair. This gives a voluminous, natural look that mimics kinky hair, is ideal for promoting hair growth, and is easy to maintain with a satin scarf at night. The technique involves dividing the hair into sections, placing the synthetic extension in the middle, and then twisting the two sections together in the same direction to form a thick, durable twist. Variations include Barrel Twists.
