Installation typically takes 6–8 hours depending on hair thickness, parting detail, and stylist speed. We allow extra time for neat parting and a comfortable experience. Consultations help estimate timing more precisely and accommodate desired fullness or hair additions.

Large 26" twists work best on textured and natural hair, but can be installed over protective extensions for finer or heat-straightened hair. A consultation identifies appropriate base preparation, extension type, and ensures longevity without undue tension.

With proper care, Large 26" twists last 6–10 weeks. Regular scalp cleansing, light moisturizing, and avoiding heavy styling prolong wear. Schedule a mid-point touch-up for new growth or loose twists to maintain a fresh, tidy appearance.

When installed and removed correctly, Large Senegalese twists are protective and gentle. Avoid excessive tension, heavy extensions, or prolonged wear without maintenance. We assess hair health before service and advise on base preparation and removal to minimize breakage.

Sleep on a satin bonnet or scarf and use a silk pillowcase. Pineapple or a loose bun reduces friction. Moisturize scalp with lightweight oil, refresh twists with a water-based mist, and avoid heavy products to prevent buildup and frizz.

You can style twists into updos, buns, and ponytails and add accessories or beads. Dyeing requires care—do not color synthetic extensions. If using human hair extensions, discuss color options during consultation; heat styling is not recommended on synthetic twists.
