Installation time varies with hair length, density, and selected extension length, but most Tree Braids appointments take between three to six hours. Your stylist will provide an estimated time during consultation based on the complexity of the desired style.

When installed by experienced stylists using appropriate tension and supportive techniques, Tree Braids are gentle and protective. Prevent damage by keeping braids for recommended periods, moisturizing the scalp, and scheduling professional removal to avoid snagging or pulling.

With proper care, Tree Braids typically look fresh for four to eight weeks. Longevity depends on sleep protection, cleansing routine, and activity level. Occasional touch-ups or a salon check can extend their polished appearance.

Yes โ€” you can swim and work out with Tree Braids, but take precautions. Rinse chlorine or saltwater promptly, use a swim cap when possible, gently dry hair afterward, and avoid heavy products that trap residue on the scalp.

Tree Braids are suitable for a wide range of hair textures and densities, including natural and processed hair. A consultation helps determine if your hair is a good match and which extension method will best protect and enhance your natural texture.

Come with clean, conditioned, and detangled hair. Deep condition a few days before your appointment and avoid heavy oils or buildup. Trim damaged ends beforehand if possible, and bring inspiration photos for the desired length and style.
