Frequently Asked Questions
Get answers to common questions about Large 16" (Armpit length).
Installation typically takes 2–4 hours depending on hair thickness and desired density. Our stylists work carefully to ensure even, comfortable twists. Arrive with clean, detangled hair and expect time variation if additional custom shaping or parting is requested.
Yes, with proper consultation. For fine hair we adjust twist size and anchoring to reduce tension and distribute weight. Extensions can be added strategically for volume while protecting your natural hair; book a consultation so we can tailor the installation and aftercare plan.
With proper care, expect 4–8 weeks of wear before noticeable loosening. Longevity depends on hair growth rate, maintenance routine, and activity level. We recommend touch-ups at three to six weeks and a full redo to prevent matting and preserve hair health.
Sleep with a satin scarf or bonnet, moisturize roots and twists with a light leave-in or oil, and avoid heavy product buildup. Refresh edges gently and schedule light maintenance appointments to keep twists neat and prevent clasping or excessive frizz.
Properly installed and maintained kinky twists are protective. We avoid excessive tension, use gentle parting, and recommend appropriate products. Damage risk increases with prolonged wear without care or overly tight installs — regular check-ins help prevent issues and protect hair integrity.
Styling without heat is ideal; you can pin up, bun, or accessorize easily. Avoid direct heat on synthetic extensions. If heat styling is necessary, consult us first—use low heat, heat-protectant, and test a small section to prevent melting or weakening of extensions.
