Frequently asked questions
These are loose bundles of synthetic hair that you braid into your own hair by hand. The method is used to create longer, fuller braids or protective styles.
The hair is made of advanced, high-quality synthetic fibres. This is a plus because it's extremely light, resists tangling and is gentle on your hands while you braid.
We don't recommend using traditional heat tools on this braiding hair. You can, however, use hot water to shape and seal the ends.
Yes, it works well for all hair types, but if your hair is very fine, avoid making the braids too heavy. Make sure you don't braid too tightly at the roots.
A full head of standard-thickness box braids usually takes 3 to 5 packs. Thinner braids or braiding only part of your hair needs fewer packs.
Choose a colour that matches your natural hair for a discreet look, or experiment with exciting shades for a more expressive style. The hair comes in both solid and blended colours.
No, synthetic fibres can't be dyed or bleached. The fibres don't take chemical colour treatments, so you need to choose the right shade from the start.
A well-done braided style can stay looking good for 4 to 8 weeks. It depends on how fast your own hair grows and how carefully you look after your scalp.
This hair comes in loose, untied bundles that need to be braided in by hand from the scalp. Our ready-made hair extension methods such as clip-ins attach with clips for a quick result you can wear down.
It's best to sleep in a satin bonnet or night cap, or on a silk pillowcase. This reduces friction and helps your braids stay smooth and neat for much longer.
