Practical Preparation Steps for Your Appointment

To prepare for your appointment, think about what to wear for your comfort. Loose, breathable clothing is a great choice. We generally recommend bringing a scarf to protect your hair on the way to the salon and giving your stylist a heads-up about any specific styles you have in mind. As one of our happy clients shared, "They did an amazing job on my boho knotless braids. They were super nice when I walked in and gave me exactly what I wanted!"

What Happens After and How to Care for Your Feed In Cornrows

Keeping your hair moisturized is key; we generally recommend light sprays and daily moisturizing to maintain the look and feel of your style. Our clients often remark on how nice it is to still get tons of compliments weeks later, saying things like, "I love my hair. The ladies are nice and friendly. My hair is about 6 weeks old at this point and I still get tons of compliments."
