How the style is built
Small two-strand twists with extensions are created by attaching added hair into many small sections across the scalp so the finished look reads full and bold at armpit length. Twist size and the number of extension pieces determine texture and movement; smaller sections increase perceived volume while the armpit length keeps the style balanced and wearable.
Appointments for this Small 16" (Armpit length) service are scheduled as a single extended session — total time listed is 150 MINUTES. During the consultation your stylist will discuss twist size, target density and how those choices affect weight and maintenance, plus explain trade-offs so you can choose the finished silhouette that suits your lifestyle.
What to expect during appointment
Expect an upfront consultation about density, parting and lifestyle needs before installation begins. Salon Daba’s central Hollywood location on the La Brea corridor sits close to Hollywood/Highland transit, which makes it practical for quick pre- or post-commute appointments and convenient for evening or weekend bookings for entertainment and hospitality professionals.
The session requires seated time and focused work by your stylist; short breaks are taken as needed. Many clients bring headphones, a light snack or event details. If you’re scheduling around a show at the Hollywood Bowl or an evening event on Hollywood Boulevard, tell us the timing so we can coordinate finish time without rushing the installation.
Aftercare and longevity factors
Aftercare influences how long twists keep a neat appearance. We provide personalized guidance on gentle cleansing, light moisturization and nighttime protection to reduce frizz and preserve shape. Los Angeles’ Mediterranean climate—warm, dry summers and milder winters—can change how often you need maintenance or the type of moisturizing approach that works best.
Longevity also depends on activity level, styling habits and water exposure. Regular maintenance visits to tidy edges and address new growth will extend the look’s neatness. Book touch-ups earlier in our busiest months (June–August and December) because availability tightens as demand rises for extension twists during vacation and travel seasons.
