Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Flat Twists.

Most clients enjoy Flat Twists for two to six weeks, depending on hair type, twist size, and maintenance. Smaller twists and oily hair may loosen sooner; regular touch-ups extend wear.

When installed properly, Flat Twists shouldn't pull on edges. Communicate sensitivity with your stylist, request looser tension around hairline, and avoid extremely small parts to protect fragile roots. If pain occurs, request immediate adjustment.

Use a satin scarf or bonnet nightly, moisturize scalp and twists with light leave-in or oil, and avoid heavy products. Refresh by re-twisting loose sections or using a light edge control for neatness.

Swimming or exercising is fine with Flat Twists if you protect them from chlorine and salt. Rinse thoroughly after water exposure, wear a swim cap, and dry completely to prevent mildew or loosening.

Flat Twists work on most textured hair types and can suit short to long lengths, though medium length is ideal for grip. Consultation helps determine parting, size, and readiness, and some styling adaptations.

Appointment time varies with hair length, density, and twist size. Expect anywhere from 60 minutes for faster styles up to three hours for detailed or full-head installations. We provide an estimated time when booking.
