Frequently Asked Questions
Get answers to common questions about Medium 16" (Armpit length).
Typically 6-8 weeks with proper care. Lifespan varies based on hair growth, maintenance, and activities. We recommend gentle cleansing, nightly satin protection, and a mid-way touch-up if needed to keep braids looking neat and reduce tension on roots.
When installed properly using knotless techniques, these braids minimize scalp tension and protect edges. We assess hair health before styling and adjust braid size and placement to avoid stress; follow aftercare guidelines to further reduce breakage risk.

Yes — we can incorporate extensions for volume and length and blend colored hair for dimensional looks. We use high-quality, lightweight hair to maintain natural movement; consult stylist about color placement and maintenance to ensure healthy results.
