Feed-in braids are essentially cornrows that have extra hair fed in little by little so that there’s less hair at the top than at the bottom of the braid.
Knotless braids are a traditional three-strand braidwith a beneficial twist. Knotless box braids don't put tension on your scalp with an 'anchor knot.' The Knotless style is extremely lightweight, and it doesn’t matter how large or how small you go with these braids the second you get them done you can move them around and style them however you want.
Butterfly locs also known as distressed locs are a variant of faux locs achieved using the crotchet method where wavy hair is looped into a braid using a crotchet needle and then loosely wrapped to give it a distressed or unraveled look.
Bohemian box braids are basically box braids with undone curly ends which give off a fuller and voluminous look. Only the first couple of inches are braided while the rest is left undone and curly.
Bob Braids is everything a box braids bob is supposed to be. It's an angled bob style that curls under the chin, just like the classic bob.
Tribal braids are a cornrow-inspired hairstyle where the braids get the pattern of the cornrows. The braids are arranged in a parallel and center partitioned way. They are decorated with different types of accessories like beads.
Avoid Pulling Too Tightly
While it can be tempting to always pull your braids into a high ponytail or a stunning top knot, the end results are definitely not worth it. The constant tension that comes pulling at your hair can be quite damaging to your hair, specifically your hairline, which is the weakest area of your entire head. The constant wear and tear can easily lead to looser braids and a faster takeout time. Instead, be gentle when handling your braids or twists and avoid doing too many up dos.
Don't Leave Your Braids in Too Long
Braids and twists are considered to be a type of protective style, but if left in too long, they can become quite damaging. These styles are meant to be temporary. We recommend that you keep the style for up to six to ten weeks, depending on the style.
Protect Your Hair When Going to Bed
A silk headscarf or a satin pillowcase will help keep your braids from drying out. Your edges will also remain fresher. Cotton soaks up moisture, therefore a cotton pillow case extracts the moisture from your hair and scalp.
Moisturize and Seal Your Hair
Break out a spray bottle and spray your thirsty roots. It only take a couple of minutes to moisturize your hair. Moisturizing your hair is another key to maintaining the integrity of your hair, with or without braids. Then be sure to seal that hydration in with some type of natural oil or sealing product. This will ensure that your hair remains soft and supple instead of dry and brittle.
Wash Your Braids
Some may think that you aren’t able to wash your own hair when you have it styled with braids. This is false. A daily buildup of dirt or sweat can cause pores to clog and product build up. This is a recipe for disaster of a scalp and hair. You having braids does not allow you a pass to go without washing your hair.
Your hair is your crown and it is vital that you protect it. Please review preparing your hair for installation before your appointment.
As tempting as it may be to leave your braids in for as long as possible, leaving them in for too long can pull on your hair and cause serious damage.
Although braids are fun and make styling your hair much easier, they can also weigh your hair down, which can lead to breakage. Be sure to give your hair a break in between protective styles to allow it to breathe and recuperate.
Be sure to give your scalp a good scrub, removing any residue that might be there. Condition afterwards to add moisture back to your hair.
This adds extra strength and moisture to your hair before you braid it. Use this step to inject any extra ingredients that could benefit your hair and will add extra slip to your strands, which will aid with the installation process.
Detangle your hair as much as possible. Hair that has been thoroughly detangled prior to installation will be easier to detangle again during take down.
