Get answers to common questions about Small 12" (Shoulder length).
Installation typically takes three to five hours depending on hair density and stylist speed. We prioritize clean parts and secure small braids to ensure longevity and comfort; bring reference photos for your preferred parting and size.
When installed and removed by a trained stylist using gentle techniques, Small 12 braids can protect your natural hair. Avoid overly tight tension, follow scalp-care routines, and remove on schedule to minimize breakage and preserve hair health.
With proper maintenance and minimal manipulation, Small 12 braids usually last six to eight weeks. Scalp care, regular moisturizing, and sleeping with a silk scarf extend longevity; we recommend a touch-up or removal after two months to protect hair growth.
Yes—wash one to two times weekly using diluted shampoo and focus on the scalp. Pat dry, apply lightweight oil or braid spray, and avoid heavy products. Gentle styling like low buns, ponytails, and half-up looks protects edges.
Yes—our stylists can incorporate colored synthetic hair for vibrant or subtle highlights. We recommend discussing color placement during consultation to ensure balanced weight and longevity; premium hair options help reduce tangling and maintain braid definition.
Arrive with clean, detangled hair and a recent trim if needed. Bring inspiration photos and note preferred parting. Allow time for the appointment; eat and hydrate beforehand. Communicate any scalp sensitivities or hair history during consultation.
