working out with senegalese twist
working out with braids
alicia james
Hey guys, it's Alicia and I'm going to do a really quick video to show you how I wear my hair when I work out with these fit uglies twists. I don't know why I wear it makes me think so much like senegalese senegalese, twists, um, really simple. This is not anything that I discovered or anything like that, really it's about me and and how I had to find a way that works. For me, this is obviously a lot of hair, it can be kind of heavy and I do different sorts of workouts. So the first day that I had worked out in my twist, you know it was all a test for me. I really didn't know what was going to work. I tried to go for my normal hair style when I'm just wearing my natural hair, and I went for a high bun and um that day I just did like Stairmaster and weights the second day um. I took like a strenght training class and then I did Samba and that's when it just did not work out. My hair literally just fell off the top of my head because there was a lot of moving a lot of bouncing around and the hair is so heavy. So the first day the Python worked for me because I wasn't just really jumping around, but with my other classes - and you know, mountain climbers and crazy stuff like that, it did not hold up so um. The next day I decided to try a ponytail and that's what I've been wearing for every workout I workout five to six times or days during the week, sometimes two times out of that week. A lot of you know I'm on this journey. Just fitness journey. I'Ve always worked out, but I'm trying to get more definition and I've talked about it for a while, but now I'm really committing, because I did my first official video, so you guys are gon na have to hold me accountable, haha. You know when you're serious you tell people when you're, not it's like your own little secret and so yeah um. So I'm going to do this really really quick, I'm going to start off with this headband. It actually matches the shorts that I have on the little part here. It matches these shorts and um. You know for those of you who want to be semi cute. Like me, I don't know it just motivates me. It makes me feel good when I look in that mirror when I'm lifting those weights it just pushes me even more - that's just my personal preference, so I'm going to wear this little cute, headband, just to add a little kiss to my load outfit and I have A goody headband here that I'm going to use for my ponytail holder, because nothing else will hold and I'm not trying to be fancy. I'M just getting off this hair and just ponytail as you can see, and then I literally BAM - and you can do all of this, and do all of that you can do - is a little. It holds up through the entire workout sweat it all. So I hope this video helped you guys if you have loads of hair on your hand like me, with these twists, um yeah enjoy your workout enjoy your day. Thank you. So much for watching
Comments
msKBrightside1: Omg I needed this! I am on a weight lose journey lol and theses braids are so heavy and keep getting in my way. Thank you! And I am working towards getting a body like yours.#Hardwork lol
Nolakiss: I just got my twists done this weekend so thanks for the tip. You look good girl!
Kaitlyne Jimenez: About to test this out! I almost used these 8 packs of weave in my head as an excuse to skip the gym...... But off I go! Haha thank you girl!
Denina Williams: What is your routine like with your senegalese twists? I have them for the first time and am struggling with a routine. I looked at some people who said they sprayed their twists down with a water, oil, moisturizer solution. That made my hair look CRAZY. My hair reverted big time and the ends were sticking out everywhere so I had to retwist. The same thing happens on a smaller scale whenever I use a leave in. It's really important to me to keep my own hair moisturized and healthy, but I also prefer not to look all shabby lol
MyNaturalMyChoice: Love your twists... Awesome easy tips!
Erica Marty: Very cute, thanks for sharing as I often struggle what to do with my "extra" hair while working out. :) You're good at Zumba!
LaurenNicole: Wow ur body is amazing excited to see your health and fitness journey! I have marleys in and i too find that a simple ponytail is the best option i sit mine up high and im good to go!
kundalinirising: How do you clean it after working out? That's what Im worried about, when it starts to eventually get dirty..
Deb JB: Thanks Alicia for the tip. I like the high ponytail! :-) I hate it when I do mountain climbers and my bun comes a loose.
YAH’s GOLDEN DAUGHTER: You beta get it gurl, look at you doing Zumba, that is my stuff, I am so proud of you thanks for the inspiration, also and yes can you do a video on how you moisturize your twists?
Cherry Lynn: That's not the issue I think I will have. It's keeping my scalp clean and free from itching. When I sweat a lot my scalp itches badly. I tend to need two washes throughout the week to keep it clean. Can you wash twists/ braids? Or not?
Cassyp4cLife: You are looking great Alicia, and killing it in class (at the end.) Thanks for sharing.
gdy2shoes78: Your twists are gorgeous! I too love to look cute during my workouts and I wear headbands, specifically bondi bands. They work really great a wicking sweat and they are available with cute sayings to keep you motivated throughout those workouts! www.bondiband.com
Alejandra Hernandez: CAN YOU GIVE TIPS ON HOW TO KEEP HAIR FEOM SMELLING AFTER ALL THE WORKOUTS
C ROSE: Hey Alicia. I have a quick question. I just a had a baby 4 months ago and was needed to shed a little more pounds(about 25 ugh) before I start to focus on toning. Do you have any recommendations on what I should be doing or focusing on for a proportionate we loss (full body)? Also I wanted to know is Zumba a good source for my needs and I also have a treadmill and ab scissor machine? Help!!!
Lexishere: I notice that when i workout or sweat a lot while wearing braids, my hair starts to frizz up and thicken back to its natural state at the roots and i like my braids to last about a month but i also like to workout.. also whenever i try to wash them with braids in, they get frizzy too
Mapitso Thaisi: I love your channel! So inspired.
ElliSoFine21: Awesome! I was wondering are you able to wash with the twist in?
NusaybahBintKa3b: After u workout do u blow dry ur roots? Or is it fine not to?
Sarah Rabalais: Keep your makeup and nail polish in the refrigerator, it prevents the oils from breaking down in your polish and the cold inhibit bacterial growth in your makeup. I have nail polish that are at least 10 years old that is still going strong and has not started separating as would generally happen in normal room temp
naturalbeyouty: You working out at the end of the video... get it girl!
holyonfire: I am wanting to exercise a lot too, but I sweat a lot. How often do you wash your twists to keep the sweat from becoming a problem for your hair and scalp?
Estelle Paul: and how often do you wash your hair because of the workouts it must get durty faster. usually i wash mine every week or 10 days but i would like to start working out and so that is an issue for me. thank you so do you have tips to keep your heqd cleqn even if you work out as often as that ! :)
totallytega: Can you please please please make a video on how to maintain the cleanliness of your natural hair under the Senegalese twists? I've had mine for about a month now but I have no idea how to get my scalp clean or get it moisturized without drenching the hair. I've stuck to diluting my conditioner/shampoo with water and spraying and finger massaging and I'm wondering if you use a different method...
Miss Infinite: Died when u started slinging it. Gonna have to do this when I get my braids soon bc I don't wanna miss out on being active
Jess: The tip was to simply pull your hair up in a pony tail?
TheLovelyShally: Hi I just got my twist done a couple of weeks ago they already feel loose , I workout twice a day and sweat mostly from my roots am I being paranoid or what should I do

MissQueenBoss73: Are the twist good for doing water aerobics?
