✦ BRAID-INS ✦

Most people can, however, it does depend on the length of your hair and the condition of

your hair. We always suggest doing a free, in-person consultation to go over all the

questions you may have as well as a price quote.


You can choose to do a partial, or a full head, or full head with bangs out.

 



You can find them on Amazon, Etsy, an artist that sells them in sets, or we can create a

set for you in house!


We suggest synthetic extensions, as it is cost effective and you have the

opportunity to choose dreads, braids, curls, etc.


That is up to you! Single ended could require more install time, however, double-ended

does have a more “bulky” look. This is your preference, we can also make a suggestion.


We use the blanket stitch method followed with a stretch elastic that is safe for your hair.


Partial sets can take around 2-3 hours. Full sets can take 4-6 hours. We do offer a

decorating service after the install where you can choose beads and decorative colored

wraps.


We recommend between 6-8 weeks, you can choose to leave them in longer but be

mindful that your hair may be a little more difficult to detangle.


You are more than welcome to remove them yourself. Be sure to ask your artist on the best method of removing. We would be happy to remove them for you as well and can include a shampoo wash in that service. Sometimes we suggest letting us do it for you, as it can be difficult to see the elastics to remove on your own.


 You can put them back in after you’ve washed and brushed your hair. Sometimes we suggest letting your scalp take a break for a day or two but that is up to you!
