Advice Needed: Bantu Knot Outs

Hello,

I am experimenting with the bantu knot out hairstyle today for the first time. I need advice on what to do with my hair at night. Should I twist it back up again or just pin up the end pieces with bobby pins and wrap a scarf around my hair that night? Also, what are the best styling products to use on this style? TIA.

Hey when I did bantu knots I used Garnier Frutis soft curl but since that product is discontinued you can use another product similar to it which is a curly putty. You can also just use cantu leave in for your hair. To sleep I just throw on a bonnet and refresh in the morning but if you want them to be as fresh as they are when you first did them, you might want to redo them again. Hope this helps!

Thanks. I will try curly putty, and I purchased cantu leave in today. Thanks again.

I still experimenting with bantu knot outs. On my first day I retwist the edges and put the rest up in a pineapple. On the second day all put all of my hair up in a pineapple, I gatheres all of the hair and placed it as close to my forehead as possible and then wrapped it.

What is a pineapple?

It depends on my mood as to how I care for my BKO at night. Sometimes I will not do anything to it just sleep on my silk pillowcase or I sometimes will redo the fromt two and the side two knots. I also will just place four knots (using all of my hair) and go to bed. Moody..I know.
