Typically 6–8 weeks with proper care. Duration varies by hair growth, braid size, and maintenance; smaller braids can last longer but may require more upkeep. Avoid excessive tension and moisturize scalp to prolong wear and prevent damage.
Properly installed box braids minimize tension; choose appropriate braid size and spacing to protect edges. Inform your stylist about sensitivity. Remove braids promptly at signs of pain, thinning, or excessive breakage to prevent long-term damage.
Cleanse scalp every 1–2 weeks using dilute shampoo or a scalp cleanser, rinse thoroughly, and apply lightweight leave-in conditioner. Dry fully to avoid mildew. Sleep with a silk scarf or bonnet and moisturize roots regularly to maintain braid integrity.
Yes—extensions can be added for length or volume, but your stylist will assess hair health and base thickness first. Blending techniques and matching texture ensure a natural look while avoiding excessive weight that could stress your scalp.
Installation time ranges from 3 to 8 hours depending on braid size, length, and complexity. Smaller, thinner braids take longer. Your stylist will provide a time estimate during consultation based on desired size and any additional styling options.
Come with clean, dry hair and avoid heavy oils or conditioners. Bring reference photos and any preferred accessories. If hair is chemically treated, disclose treatments. Arrive on time and allow full appointment duration for best results.
