Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about 2 Cornrows (Half Head).

Appointment time varies by hair density, texture, and extension type. Typically expect 45 to 90 minutes for two half-head cornrows with extensions, including consultation and finishing touches. Your stylist will give a precise estimate when assessing your hair.

Proper installation and moderate tension minimize breakage. Using quality extensions, gentle parting, and avoiding overly tight braids keeps hair healthy. Follow aftercare recommendations, take breaks between styles, and contact your stylist if you experience pain or excess shedding.

Keep scalp clean and moisturized, wrap hair at night with a satin scarf or bonnet, and avoid heavy products that cause buildup. Re-tension or refresh edges as needed; schedule touch-ups every few weeks to maintain neatness and extension integrity.

With proper installation and care, two cornrows with extensions typically last four to eight weeks. Lifespan depends on hair growth, maintenance, and activity level; schedule maintenance appointments to tighten or replace extensions for best appearance.

You can swim and exercise, but take precautions: wear a swim cap, rinse and condition hair after chlorinated water, and gently blot dry. Sweat and moisture may shorten the style's neatness; regular drying and light maintenance will extend longevity.
