Passion Twist Crochet Hair Guide

Installing passion twists on crochet braids is really easy! You can use the traditional braid pattern with several vertical cornrow lines running from your hair line to crown and horizontal (side to side) cornrows at the back of your head. From there, you use a latch hook to loop and knot the passion twists through your cornrows.

The more twists you add in a line, the more fullness you will have. You can also choose to add less or more fullness at your hairline depending on how you like to part your hair.

Another way to install your passion twists for a more individually planted look is to section your hair into several braids, to create more defined sections, and then cornrow them all in lines running from your hairline to nape. This will take more time, but you’ll find the end result worth it when you’re able to part your twists anywhere and everywhere.

With the right maintenance, you can keep your passion twists in for 6-8 weeks. To keep their shine and curl, apply a leave in conditioner every few days or use a curl defining mousse once a week to reshape an unravelled strand. You can clean your scalp with a little witch hazel on a cotton ball or mix any of your favourite essential oils with water in a spray bottle. Always remember to either pineapple wrap your hair at night, use a satin bonnet or sleep on a silk pillowcase to keep your hair fresh.
