Typically 6–8 weeks depending on hair growth, care routine, and activity level. With proper maintenance—gentle cleansing, nightly wrapping, and scalp moisturizing—you can extend wear and keep parts crisp. Schedule a refresh when noticeable new growth or frizz affects the shape.
Our knotless method minimizes root tension by gradually adding hair, protecting edges and reducing breakage risk. We customize braid size and tightness to suit your scalp sensitivity. Follow aftercare instructions and avoid heavy styling for best protection.
Installation typically takes 5–8 hours depending on hair density, braid size, and additional styling. We recommend arriving with detangled hair and allowing full appointment time for precise parting and a polished finish. Consult booking for exact estimates.
Yes, but protect braids from prolonged chlorine or saltwater exposure. Rinse and moisturize scalp afterward and wrap braids when swimming. For intense exercise, tie hair up lightly to prevent friction and maintain neat parts.
At night, gently wrap braids with a silk scarf or bonnet and use a silk pillowcase. Lightly apply scalp oil as needed and avoid heavy products at roots. This preserves sleek parts and reduces frizz for longer-lasting results.
Absolutely. We consult on parting, face-framing, and braid thickness before installation to craft a personalized silhouette. Bring reference photos and discuss desired volume and finish so we can tailor the look to your features and lifestyle.
