Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Jumbo XL 18" (Bra-strap length).

Expect 3–6 hours depending on hair density, scalp prep, and desired braid size. Our experienced stylists at Salon Daba work efficiently with high-quality extensions to ensure neat parting and durable installation while maintaining comfort and customized placement.

When installed and removed properly, Jumbo XL braids minimize tension. Our stylists use protective techniques and recommend regular scalp care, moisturizing, and not keeping braids beyond recommended timeframe to prevent breakage and maintain hair health.

We recommend wearing jumbo braids for 4–8 weeks depending on your hair's growth rate and maintenance routine. Regular cleansing, scalp care, and avoiding excessive tension extend wear. Leaving them longer increases tangling risk and potential stress on roots.

Weekly, gently cleanse the scalp with diluted shampoo, apply lightweight oil to soothe dryness, and sleep with a satin scarf or pillowcase. Refrain from heavy products that build up; refresh edges and braid roots as needed to maintain neatness.

Yes — you can swim and exercise, but protect braids by rinsing chlorine or salt immediately, using a swim cap where possible, and thoroughly drying to prevent mildew. Reapply scalp moisturizer after activity to maintain hair and scalp health.

Pricing varies based on braid length, extensions used, and stylist time. Our Salon Daba team provides an accurate quote during consultation. Expect premium rates for extra-large braids due to material and time investment; deposits may be required when booking.
