Frequently Asked Questions
Get answers to common questions about Medium Box Braids.
With proper care, Medium Box Braids generally last six to eight weeks. Longevity depends on hair growth rate, maintenance, and scalp health; regular cleansing, reduced tension, and avoiding heavy products help preserve neatness and prevent premature loosening or breakage.
High-quality synthetic hair usually won't irritate, but reactions can occur. We use premium, lightweight fibers and custom tension to minimize pulling. If you have sensitivities, discuss them before styling; we can select softer fibers and adjust installation to protect your scalp.
Installation typically takes three to six hours depending on hair length, braid density, and added synthetic hair. Our stylists work efficiently without sacrificing quality; shorter sessions are possible for shoulder-length hair or fewer braids.
Wash braids every one to three weeks with a gentle diluted shampoo, focusing on the scalp; rinse well and gently squeeze water from braids. Condition sparingly, air-dry or blow-dry on low, and keep scalp moisturized with light sprays or oils.
Yes—swimming and workouts are fine with Medium Box Braids. Braid hair up and use a swim cap when possible; rinse and shampoo after swimming to remove chlorine or salt, and reapply a light moisturizer to prevent dryness and tangling.
Removal should be done gently: cut synthetic extensions close to the knot, unravel braids slowly from the ends, detangle with conditioner, and follow with a clarifying wash and deep conditioning treatment. Professional removal avoids breakage and reduces damage.
