Havana Twists typically last four to eight weeks with proper care. Keep scalp clean, moisturize ends weekly, sleep with a silk scarf, and avoid heavy products that cause buildup. Regular touch-ups at the perimeter can extend the style comfortably.

Clients must purchase their own extension hair prior to the appointment. We can recommend appropriate brands, colors, and yardage for Havana Twists. Bringing quality pre-stretched or synthetic Marley-style hair ensures the best texture and installation results.

Pricing varies based on braid size and length; we price each service after consultation. Shorter, chunky Havana Twists cost less than long, thin ones. Contact Miracle hands braiding Studio for an accurate estimate and to book a sizing consultation.

Wash and thoroughly detangle your hair 24 to 48 hours before your appointment. Do not apply heavy oils or leave-in treatments. Hair should be completely dry. Bring the pre-purchased extension bundles and any reference photos to ensure your desired size and length.

Yes โ€” Havana Twists are highly versatile and can be worn in updos, buns, and ponytails for everyday or formal looks. Use strong pins, gentle handling to avoid frizz, and avoid excessively heavy ornamentation that may strain the roots.

Gently cleanse your scalp every one to two weeks with diluted shampoo, moisturize with light oils or water-based sprays, and cover hair at night with a satin bonnet or scarf. Re-twist loose edges when needed and schedule perimeter touch-ups to keep the style fresh longer.
