speaking of 2 strand twists...

 i suck at doing 2 strand twists!  they always look terrible!

i think i'm pretty good with doing hair...i can cornrow & flat-twist, & rock bantu knots.  i can work wonders with bobby pins.  when i wear my hair straight i flat iron it myself & it looks professionally done.  i trim & even chop my hair myself.  when i wore perms, i permed my own hair.  colored my own hair.

but 2 strand twists elude me.  i try different sizes.  they either look like straw, or they don't stay together.  i try starting off with braiding & ending with braiding...it all looks terrible.  my twist-outs look really cute--which is the only reason i continue to 2 strand twist my hair--but does anyone have any insight?

i've watched videos to no avail.
i consider paying professional stylist to twist my hair, but i don't b/c i'm wondering if there are just some people who just can't rock two strand twists & look cute???
i've had kinky twists & senagalese twists that i really liked, but when it's just my hair... :-/
