The French twist is a simple but elegant way to wear your hair.

The classic French twist is elegant and sleek, perfect for special occasions like weddings and black-tie parties. The modern French twist, a flirty modification of the classic, is good for cocktail parties, work or a night out on the town.

If you are a long-haired women used to throwing your hair up and poking something in it to hold it there (pencil, anyone?), you’ll be able to pull off a French twist. Your hair should be at least shoulder length to wear this style well. Let us learn how to do a French twist in a simple way

The first thing you need to do is to gather your hair up into a simple pony tail. Make sure that you like the way the hair around your face looks. Having a few wisps next to your face can be a good thing. Then, hold your pony tail up in the air and begin to twist it. Which way you twist doesn’t matter, but two to three twists should do the trick. You should feel the pressure of the twist on the back of your head.

The next step is folding the twisted pony tail in half, and secures the bottom part of the twist in with the pony tail holder. The middle of the twist will now be at the bottom of your head and then it comes to the most challenging part of learning how to do hair in a French twist. You need to twist this halved pony tail again a few more times.

Comb the hair properly. Now, pull it back, just like you would do in case of making a ponytail, while smoothing it as you go. Now, leaving your hair unsecured, gather it to the center back of the head. Hold all the hair in your left hand and by making use of your right hand, bring the free end of the hair upward, towards the top of the head.

With the help of a comb, smooth out the hair completely and also grab any flyaway and now start twisting the hair to the left, beginning from the base of the ponytail. Keep on twisting and tucking, till you see a slight twist forming. Holding the hair in the same position, go back to the base of the ponytail.

Now, using the bobby pin, start pinning your hair into position and then place a pin into the center of the head, while making sure that the open end faces to the left. Next step is to grab some hair and move the open end to the right, in order to secure it. Repeat the steps and keep moving up the twist, while securing and tightening as you go. Once you reach the crown of the head, stop tucking and pinning your hair. Bring together all the hair that has still not been tucked in.
