What defines High-top twists?

High-top twists separate the longer crown hair into short two-strand sections above closely tapered sides. The gaps between twists and the height of the top are visible parts of the design. Twist definition and the shape of the taper are separate choices.

What to look for from the front, side and back

From the front, compare section thickness and how the tips spread above the forehead. The profile shows the transition from the twists to the temple. Check the rear for the nape taper and the balance between the top height and close sides.

What to confirm with your stylist

Ask your stylist or braider about the section size, dry top length and how much scalp should show between twists. Discuss a comfortable root tension and how to maintain the style. A reference does not establish that your current length will form the same sections.
