Hey!
So whenever I do twisted ties they always unravel then the twisted ties don’t like nice because it’s not twisted . How can I avoid this??

maybe you're not doing them tight enough, usually you're supposed to separate the strings into 2 diff groups, you're gonna twist each group to the left as long as you want them and them join them together and twist them to the right (:

Maybe it helps to watch a turtorial while doing it; that helps me really often.

I have a hack. You can take the quick twist thing from dollarama to twist the strands it’s only 3 or 4 dollars and you can watch my tutorial if you need it.

Maybe try to twist your bundles more tightly and, when you twist, hold one bundle in each hand and wrap the bundles around each other. 🙂

Make sure you’re twisting both of the two smaller groups in the same direction, and that you’re twisting them together in the opposite direction. Also make sure you twist them tightly

I usually twist the two smaller parts clockwise then twist them together counter clockwise, but make sure you twist them together tightly. I also twist the 2 sections tighter while I twist them together if that makes sense, just in case the unraveled

i always use twisted ties at the ends of my bracelets and i like to twist the smaller groups to the right, then twist them around one another to the left. if yours are unraveling, just make sure you twist tight enough without letting them go and unravel 🌸✨

My hack for this is to always twist short parts at once. I twist small parts of the both halves individually and when they're tightly twisted I twist a small part of the two halves together. By working in small segments you have more control how tight the twist is and it gets easier to twist tighter because if you try to twist the whole tie at once it tends to tangle in ways you don't want it too. If you pull on both halves of the ties at once they should untangle a bit but when you leave them loose again they should twist again. If they don't do that you didn't twist tight enough.
