Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Boho knotless braids.

Boho knotless braids generally last 6–8 weeks with proper care. Touch-ups or re-tensioning may be needed earlier if new growth appears or braids loosen. Regular moisturizing and gentle handling extend longevity and keep styles neat between salon visits.

When installed correctly by experienced braiders, Boho knotless braids minimize tension and reduce breakage risk. Gentle installation, appropriate extension weight, and proper aftercare protect your hair. Communicate concerns with your stylist to adjust parting, size, or tightness for healthiest results.

Installation typically takes 4–8 hours depending on braid size, length, and desired styling details. Smaller, neater parts and longer lengths require extra time. We recommend scheduling accordingly and allowing for consultation to tailor time estimates to your specific look.

Wash gently every 1–2 weeks with diluted shampoo, focusing on the scalp. Apply lightweight oils or braid spray to moisturize, avoid heavy products that cause buildup, sleep with a silk scarf, and schedule touch-ups if edges loosen.

Yes — you can swim and exercise with Boho knotless braids, but protect them from chlorine and saltwater with a swim cap or rinse thoroughly afterward. Pat hair dry, reapply moisturizer, and avoid excessive friction to prolong braid life.

Coloring is best done before installation to prevent damage to extensions and minimize chemical stress on your natural hair. If you plan to dye, consult your stylist beforehand. After removal, allow hair to rest before major chemical treatments.
