Frequently Asked Questions
Get answers to common questions about Large 12" (Shoulder length).
With proper care, they last six to eight weeks. Maintain scalp hygiene, moisturize edges, and avoid heavy tension to preserve braid integrity and natural hair health. Schedule touch-ups as needed.
When installed properly with moderate tension and cared for, these braids are protective. Avoid excessive pulling, tight parting, or prolonged heavy styles. Communicate sensitivity or previous breakage with your stylist for adjustments and safer installation.
Installation typically takes two to four hours depending on hair density, parting complexity, and stylist speed. Large 12 braids are quicker than smaller braids but still require precision to ensure clean parts and lasting results.
Yes — you can swim and exercise, but rinse chlorine or saltwater promptly and rehydrate hair and scalp. Wear a swim cap when possible and tie braids up to minimize friction and tangling after activities.
Dilute shampoo, focus on scalp cleansing, and gently squeeze water through braids. Condition lightly, thoroughly rinse, and air-dry or use low heat. Apply lightweight oils to scalp weekly and sleep with a satin scarf to reduce frizz.
Styling is easy—updos, ponytails, and half-up looks work well. Avoid harsh chemical coloring on your natural hair while braided; consult your stylist about adding colored extensions or safe temporary dyes before installation.
