Apply Shea Butter and coconut oil (optional) for more shiny and manageable hair. Create small or large sections of your hair depending on how you would like it. You can also be creative when parting each section. You can part your sections in a triangle or diamond shape if you’d like. De-tangle your section with a spray bottle of water and a wide tooth comb if need be. Remember to comb from the bottom up. This will prevent unnecessary breakage. Apply less tension as possible when detangling. Tightly twist your section from root to end, and then wrap it around itself into a firm knot. You can also choose to braid or double twist the hair in each section before knotting. This will give your Bantu knots more texture. Repeat this technique on all sections of your hair until complete.
