Most clients enjoy 4–8 weeks of wear with proper care. Longevity depends on hair texture, scalp oiliness, and maintenance routines; book a touch-up if braids loosen or new growth becomes noticeable.

Knotless braids reduce tension at the roots, lowering breakage risk when installed correctly. Our stylists assess hair strength and use gentle techniques to protect strands; discuss concerns during your consultation.

Installation typically takes 3–6 hours depending on hair density, braid size, and styling choices. We schedule time for consultation, preparation, and precise braiding to ensure comfortable, consistent results.

You can swim and exercise, but protect braids by tying them up and rinsing after chlorine or saltwater. Use sulfate-free cleansers and gently dry to avoid frizz and buildup.

Use a satin or silk wrap nightly, moisturize the scalp with a light oil, wash every 1–2 weeks with gentle shampoo, and avoid heavy creams or aggressive brushing to maintain neatness.

Extensions can be pre-colored before installation; avoid dyeing installed braids. Light styling with low heat is possible, but discuss color or heat needs so we choose safe, compatible materials.
