Yes — when installed with low-tension cornrows and careful parting, crochet is gentle on fragile or thinning hair. Communicate concerns with your stylist so they can adjust braid size, tension, and hair placement to minimize stress and promote scalp health.

Hair is not included. Clients may purchase pre-styled crochet hair through us or bring their preferred extensions. We recommend arriving with high-quality, heat-resistant synthetic or human hair in chosen colors to ensure the finished look matches expectations.
