Appointments typically take 60–90 minutes depending on hair density, extension type, and stylist. Complex textures or added styling can extend time; we confirm a precise estimate when you book.

Wash and thoroughly detangle hair before arrival, avoid heavy oils or styling products, and bring reference photos if you have a preferred style. Clean, dry hair ensures the best, longest-lasting result.

With proper care, six cornrows typically stay neat for two to six weeks. Longevity depends on hair type, maintenance, and sleeping habits—use a satin scarf and gentle cleansing to extend freshness.

You can exercise and swim, but take precautions: wear a swim cap for chlorinated pools, rinse saltwater promptly, tie hair up during workouts, and dry thoroughly to prevent frizz and mildew.

Use a lightweight leave-in, diluted shampoo for gentle scalp cleansing, and light scalp oil to prevent dryness. Avoid heavy conditioners on the braids; sleep on satin and use edge control sparingly.
