Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Sew-in Weft Extensions (Braid).

With proper care and maintenance, sew-in wefts can last six to ten weeks between installs. Timing depends on hair growth, styling habits, and regular tightening appointments to maintain a secure, healthy install.

When installed by experienced stylists using proper tension and braid technique, sew-ins are a protective option. We prioritize comfortable braids and recommend maintenance, gentle products, and timely removal to minimize stress and prevent damage.

Use sulfate-free shampoo, dilute when washing, and focus on cleansing the scalp. Moisturize braids and natural hair lightly, sleep on satin, and avoid heavy oils or styles that tug at the wefts.

Extensions can be heat-styled if they're heat-friendly, but avoid excessive heat near the braid base. Coloring should be handled by professionals and may be limited depending on the hair type and weft construction.

Quantity varies by desired density, hair length, and natural hair thickness. During your consultation we assess goals and recommend the number of wefts or bundles for a balanced, natural-looking install.

Installations typically take between 2.5 and 5 hours depending on braid pattern, hair prep, and amount of wefts. We schedule sufficient time for careful braiding, precise weft application, and final styling.
