What Are Box Braids?
Box braids are one of the most popular protective styles there is. Each braid sits in its own square part, and extension hair is added at the root so the braids are full and uniform from top to bottom. They are easy to style, last for weeks, and give your natural hair a break from daily manipulation.
Why Clients Love Box Braids
- Full from the root. Extension hair at the base gives every braid a bold, defined start.
- Long lasting. With good care, box braids hold up for weeks.
- Endless options. Small to jumbo, shoulder length to waist length, any color you want.
What to Expect at Your Appointment
Most box braids take between 4 and 8 hours depending on size and length. Come with your hair washed, dried, and detangled unless you booked a wash. Prefer a lighter, flatter root? Ask about our knotless braids.
How to Care for Your Box Braids
- Sleep in a satin scarf or bonnet.
- Keep your scalp moisturized with a light oil or braid spray.
- Take them down within 6 to 8 weeks to protect your hair.
