Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about braids.

Most braids last 4–8 weeks depending on hair type, braid style, and care routine. Tighter, smaller braids often last longer; maintain with nightly silk wrap and scalp oiling. Schedule touch-ups or removal when new growth becomes noticeable or when frizz increases.

When installed and removed correctly, braids can be protective rather than damaging. Avoid excessively tight tension, choose experienced stylists, and schedule proper maintenance and gentle removal to reduce breakage risk and preserve healthy length.

Wash and deep-condition your hair 24–48 hours before your appointment, detangle thoroughly, and avoid heavy oils or styling products. Bring reference photos and discuss desired size, length, and tension with your stylist for best results.

Yes, but protect your braids: wear a swim cap in chlorinated pools, rinse and condition after water exposure, and tie hair up for workouts. Moisturize scalp regularly and avoid prolonged wetness to prevent mildew and weakening of the braid.
