Common Client Questions About Braids
Answers to common questions about styles, care, and appointment expectations.
With proper care, most braids last four to eight weeks. Longevity depends on technique, hair growth rate, and maintenance. Avoid heavy products, sleep with a silk scarf, and moisturize scalp regularly. Touch-ups can extend wear and preserve neatness.
Yes — braids can be adapted for most textures and lengths. Our stylists tailor techniques like knotless, box, crochet, and boho braids to minimize tension and protect your hair. Book a consultation to assess suitability and recommend the best approach for healthy results.
Appointment times vary by style and density: knotless or box braids often take 4–8 hours; crochet and boho styles may take 2–5 hours. We provide estimated times during booking and can recommend faster or multi-session options for complex installs.
Regular maintenance includes gentle scalp cleansing every one to two weeks, light nightly moisturizing, and sleeping with a silk scarf or bonnet. Avoid heavy oils that cause build-up; schedule a mid-wear touch-up if edges loosen to prolong style life and protect hair.
Yes — we can incorporate colored synthetic or human hair and extensions for length or dimension. We match textures and recommend low-heat coloring before braiding for human hair. Discuss preferences during consultation to ensure realistic, long-lasting results.
Wash and deep-condition hair 24–48 hours before your appointment, detangle thoroughly, and avoid heavy products. Bring reference photos and any hair you plan to use. If using your own extensions, inform us ahead to ensure correct quantities and colors.
