Most appointments take 1.5 to 3 hours depending on twist size, hair density, and desired finish. Consultation and prep are included; stylist will confirm exact timing when you book to ensure availability.

You can swim and exercise, but protect the twists by wearing a swim cap, applying leave-in conditioner, and rinsing promptly after chlorinated or salty water. Heavy sweating may loosen some twists; tie hair up and use a satin scarf at night.

Retouching typically every 6–8 weeks keeps the style fresh and reduces tension at roots. If you have faster growth or want crisp edges, schedule a touch-up sooner. Our stylists assess your hair and recommend a personalized maintenance interval.

When installed properly with gentle tension and quality spring-twist hair, risk of damage is low. We protect edges with careful parting, recommend scalp care, and advise against excessive tight styling. Request a consult if you have prior concerns.

Jumbo XL twists work well on medium to coarse textures and with natural to relaxed hair when prepared properly. Fine textures may require additional prepping for grip. Our stylists evaluate your hair and suggest the best attachment method and products.

Wrap hair in a satin bonnet or scarf, or use a satin pillowcase to reduce friction. Loosely tie or pineapple the twists to protect roots, avoid heavy products at night, and re-moisturize edges in the morning for longevity.
