As you can imagine the Twitter community was quick to respond with super real and heatfelt comments about why they love their braids. 

Braids make me feel free to express myself. The way I wear them can give people a hint of my personality.

And in true FKA Twigs fashion, she hopped back in the conversations to ask follow-up questions.

It wasn’t just the ladies that expressed why they love their braids, a few guys got in on the action too. 

They make me feel unique and it keeps my hands out of my hair which allows it to grow and not break off as much 😎 pic.twitter.com/VHGobzI4SC
