Frequently Asked Questions About Braids
Answers to common client questions about care, timing, and choosing braided styles.
Duration depends on style, hair growth, and maintenance. Standard box or knotless braids often last six to eight weeks with proper care; micro braids or very fine styles may need touch-ups sooner. Following aftercare and avoiding heavy product buildup extends longevity.
When installed with correct tension and technique, braids are protective. Damage usually comes from overly tight installation, neglect, or prolonged wear without care. We assess scalp health, recommend gentle sizing, and provide upkeep guidance to minimize breakage.
Installation time varies by style and density. A braided bob or simple tree braids may take a few hours, while micro braids, passion twists, or full faux locs can take several hours. Your stylist will give an estimated time during consultation.
Yes. You can gently cleanse braided hair using diluted shampoo or a dry-cleanse method, rinse carefully, and air or blow-dry fully. Avoid heavy creams at the roots and use light oils on the scalp. Gentle styling prevents tension and frizz.
Maintain braids with nightly satin protection, regular scalp cleansing, lightweight moisturizing, and avoiding excessive pulling. Schedule touch-ups for edges or new growth and remove styles promptly when needed to protect hair health.
Our stylists evaluate density, length, and porosity to recommend options. Knotless braids reduce tension for finer hair; box braids and faux locs suit medium to long lengths; braided bobs and tree braids work well for shorter hair. Book a consultation for personalized advice.
