Frequently Asked Questions
Get answers to common questions about Medium 16" (Armpit length).
With proper care, Medium 16 Havana twists typically last four to eight weeks. Longevity depends on installation technique, hair growth and maintenance. Light retouches around the edges can refresh the style and extend wear.
Arrive with clean, detangled hair and a freshly clarified scalp. Deep condition 24–48 hours before your appointment and avoid heavy oils or products that prevent good braid hold. Bring reference photos to discuss thickness and parting.
When installed by skilled stylists using appropriate tension and quality hair, Havana twists are a gentle protective style. Proper part spacing, scalp care and avoiding overly tight sections minimize breakage risk and support healthy growth.
Installation typically takes between 2.5 and 4 hours depending on twist size, hair density and whether extensions are added. We provide a consultation to assess hair and offer a more accurate timeframe before starting.
Yes—swimming and workouts are fine with precautions. Rinse and thoroughly dry hair after swimming, use a swim cap when possible, and moisturize roots regularly. Chlorine and saltwater can dry extensions, so gentle care prevents tangling.
Use lightweight leave-in conditioners, water-based moisturizers, sulfate-free shampoos and an anti-itch scalp spray. Avoid heavy oils that cause buildup, and sleep on satin to preserve shape and reduce frizz between salon visits.
