Frequently Asked Questions
Get answers to common questions about Medium 16" (Armpit length).
Installation typically takes 3-5 hours depending on braid size, hair density, and desired parting. We recommend arriving with clean, detangled hair. Your stylist will discuss timing during consultation to provide a precise estimate.
Wash and thoroughly dry your hair 24 hours before the appointment. Avoid heavy oils or conditioners. Detangle gently and bring extensions if requested. Clean hair ensures better grip and longer-lasting braids.
With proper care, these braids last four to eight weeks. Longevity depends on hair growth rate, maintenance routine, and sleeping habits. Regular scalp care and nighttime protection extend wear and reduce frizz.
Yes—wash gently every one to two weeks using diluted shampoo and focusing on the scalp. Rinse thoroughly, then use a lightweight conditioner on lengths and dry completely to prevent mildew or loosened braids.
When installed and removed professionally and kept low-tension, braids protect natural hair. Excessive tightness, improper removal, or prolonged wear without care can cause breakage—follow aftercare and schedule regular check-ins to minimize risk.
Yes—either pre-colored extension hair can be used, or consult about safe coloring options for your natural hair before installation. Salon Daba recommends professional coloring to maintain color integrity and braid condition.
