Hair Care

Prepare well, protect your hair

Braids should protect your natural hair, never strain it. Here is how we recommend getting ready and looking after your style afterwards.

Before your appointment

  • Come with clean, detangled hair. If you would like us to wash it, add the Hair Wash service to your request.
  • If you are removing an old style, book a Hair Take Down so we can allow time for it.
  • Bring your hair if you have a specific brand, colour or texture in mind — otherwise ask us at the salon.
  • Eat before long appointments. Braiding styles can take several hours.

Caring for your style

  • Sleep in a satin or silk scarf or bonnet to reduce frizz and keep edges smooth.
  • Moisturise your scalp with a light oil a few times a week; avoid heavy build-up.
  • Wash gently with diluted shampoo, squeezing rather than scrubbing, and dry thoroughly.
  • Avoid pulling styles into tight ponytails while braided — tension is what damages edges.
  • Take styles down on time. Leaving braids in too long causes matting and breakage.
