Once the hair feels secure, begin twisting the hair down as you would with a regular two strand twist. At the bottom, use gel to define the curl at the end of the twist. This will give each twist a sharp, tidy effect. Finally, use a setting foam to keep the twists free of frizz and flyaways.

Maintenance

When done right, passion twist hairstyles are protective by nature. A common question, how long the passion twists last? The answer comes down to proper maintenance. To keep the hair underneath the extensions well moisturized, gently massage a leave-in conditioner at the roots.

Cleanliness is key to keep your scalp free from buildup. A dab of witch hazel or oil applied to a cotton ball will remove sweat, dirt, and any dandruff. For a flake-free, hydrated scalp, apply oil daily. Sleep with a bonnet at night to keep flyaways under control and your hairstyle intact.

How Long Do Passion Twist Hairstyles Last?

When adequately maintained, they can last up to eight weeks. If you don’t mind a bit of frizz, you can stretch the time a little longer.

The overall cost varies depending on whether you’ll be installing them yourself or getting it done at a salon. Hair can be purchased on Amazon for as low as $35 for a 6-pack, while the price for a stylist will run anywhere from $95 to $200 and up for the hair and several hours of installation (tip not included!).
