Default please post pics of your twisted hairstyles

i am going more to protective styling for a few reasons, one being my swimming a couple of times a week. Twists and i will be new best friends but I get bored easily so i need styling ideas whether the twists are in a updo or styled some cute funky way. if you don't have pics of yourself but instead pics you've seen on the net that would be great too. here are twisted styles i've worn in the past

I don't have much length, yet. Here are my pictures. These are the few styles that I've achieved with my twist outs.

OP, your hair styles are beautiful, I love that bun in the last picture. I'm trying to come up with more twists styles as well. Here are a few of mine, they usually revolved around accessories.

I must say, I am loving all of the updo's. Makes me want to try one on my daughter's twists.

Soooooooo...........I ended up doing some twists in her hair to go w/ her bat girl costume, different from the above twists though. They are on my blog, I might post later if I stop being so lazy, lol
