After washing and air drying in a roller set. I then did a quick chunky braid-out to get this look. |

Starting the mini twists. (As you can tell, they were getting slightly bigger and bigger. I guess I got scared about having them too small.) |

All done! |

Out of curiosity, would you consider your individual strand thickness and overall density to be?
I find that my end result with twists is always scalpy. I have fine strands but high density, somehow the density does not help the scalpiness.
I'd say my strand thickness is mostly medium. Towards the back, it is definitely fine. As for the overall density, I'd say it is medium to high.
My twists get close to the scalpy side when I do them very taut/tight (as opposed to somewhat loose) and big. What size are you making your twists? Also, do you twist them very taut?
I just want to put some in right now and ignore my hair for a while.

I like that streak of color, I'm going to do that after child is born! Did you do each strand while in twists? Sorry for so many questions
Congrats on your pregnancy, btw! Here is how I did the coloring for my twists: http://hairandhealth.blogspot.com/2013/09/hair-diary-more-highlights-finalizing.html.
Lubricating the ends with oils and trying to keep them as stretched as possible can help a bit, but I still steer from doing mini twists on a regular basis. I'm experimenting with putting holding gel on my ends to decrease tangles, and so far that has improved the situation some. I'll know for sure when I take these twists out.
Hope that helps! :o)
