What the service includes
Added Hair Take Down is the careful removal of added hair — for example braids with extensions, cornrows with added pieces, or other attached styles. Appointments are scheduled to allow time for a thorough, gentle takedown; the listed duration for this service is 150 MINUTES, which accommodates a full removal and assessment of your natural hair.
The specific process varies by the type of added hair and how it was installed. Some takedowns are straightforward while others take longer depending on attachment method and how long the style was worn. Technicians focus on separating added hair from natural hair while minimizing tension and stress during removal.
Protecting your natural hair
A primary goal during takedown is preserving your natural hair and scalp health. Salon Daba provides gentle takedown services for braids, cornrows, and locs, and staff work to reduce breakage and tangling as they remove extensions or added pieces. The condition of your natural hair at removal affects what the stylist can do next.
Clients should know that existing dryness, matting, or damage will influence the pace and care required in the appointment. The takedown prepares hair for the next step—whether restyling or a restorative plan—and sometimes requires additional time or follow-up services depending on hair condition.
Booking and local logistics
Salon Daba is centrally located in Hollywood near the La Brea corridor, making it convenient for quick pre- or post-commute appointments by clients using Hollywood/Highland and nearby bus routes. Evening and weekend bookings are available to accommodate entertainment and hospitality professionals who work late shifts or need pre-show timing.
Demand is seasonal: our busiest months are January, August, and September, driven by post-holiday and post-summer takedown needs as protective styles expire. When scheduling, allow for the 150 MINUTES appointment length and consider our proximity to landmarks like the Hollywood Walk of Fame when planning arrival and departures.
