Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Jumbo XL 12" (Shoulder length).

With proper care, Jumbo XL 12 shoulder-length knotless braids typically last four to eight weeks. Longevity depends on your hair growth rate, nightly protection, and maintenance. Book a touch-up or removal when you notice significant frizz or loosening to preserve scalp health.

Knotless installation is designed to minimize scalp tension. Jumbo sizes add weight, but skilled stylists at Salon Daba balance density to keep comfort. Mild soreness may occur initially; communicate during installation so adjustments can be made for a more comfortable fit.

Installation typically takes three to six hours depending on hair preparation and desired parting. Larger, extra-thick braids are quicker than micro styles but still require careful technique to achieve even, long-lasting knotless results.

Arrive with clean, thoroughly detangled hair and a deep-conditioned scalp. Avoid heavy oils or styles that compress roots. Bring photos for reference. If you color-treated, inform your stylist so we can tailor products and installation for best results.

Maintain by nightly satin scarf or bonnet, moisturize scalp and braid roots with light oil or spray, and avoid heavy products that cause buildup. Gently cleanse the scalp every one to two weeks and schedule mid-course touch-ups if needed to manage frizz.

Jumbo XL 12 knotless braids work on many hair textures but require sufficient length and density for best results. Consultation at Salon Daba will assess hair health and recommend customization, ensuring durability without compromising natural hair integrity.
