Expect 2 to 4 hours depending on hair density, prep, and stylist speed. Thicker natural hair or added spring twist hair may add time. Your stylist will consult before starting to give a more precise estimate.

Maintain by moisturizing scalp and twists weekly with light oil or leave-in spray, sleeping on a satin scarf, and avoiding heavy buildup. Refresh edges as needed and schedule touch-ups if twists loosen for best longevity.

Yes, but take precautions: braid or gather twists, rinse immediately after chlorinated or saltwater exposure, and apply a protective leave-in conditioner. Thorough drying prevents mildew; frequent swimming may shorten the style's lifespan.

With proper care, expect 4 to 8 weeks of wear. Longevity depends on hair growth rate, activity level, and maintenance routine. Schedule touch-ups for new growth or replace the style if twists start unraveling or cause discomfort.

Most spring twist hair is synthetic and cannot withstand high heat or chemical coloring. If using human hair, consult your stylist first. We recommend non-heat styling and color-safe methods; Salon Daba can advise on safe options.
