Its all in the Curls

What are French Curl Braids?

French curl braids, also known as Nollywood braids, are a protective hairstyle featuring sleek, thin braids that transition into voluminous, curly ends. These braids are a modern take on traditional box braids, using a specific type of curly braiding hair to achieve the distinctive, bouncy look. 

Why get French Curl Braids?

French curls require minimal daily styling, making them a convenient choice for busy individuals. They last for several weeks reducing the need for frequent salon visits.

  • How long do Knotless Braids last?
    Knotless braids can last for 4–8 weeks on average, but the exact duration depends on various factors like hair type, size of braids, and maintenance. For coarser hair textures, they may last up to three months, while silkier hair might see them last only 4-6 weeks. Keeping braids in for too long will cause natural hair to become dry and damaged.
  • What lengths can you do for knotless braids?
    The standard length for knotless braids is mid-back. You can enhance your style to waist length at no extra cost. If you want a bob length, you can do that too! Ensure that your natural hair is no longer than your shoulders for this look. Choose this option during the online booking process. If you are a lover of long hair you can enhance to butt-length at an extra cost. Choose this option during the online booking process.
  • Can I wash my Boho Braids?
    Yes, knotless braids can and should be washed. Regular washing helps remove buildup, dirt, and oil from the scalp and braids, promoting healthy hair and a longer-lasting style. When washing, focus on the scalp with gentle massaging and rinsing, while minimizing frizz by avoiding aggressive pulling on the braids.
  • Can Boho Braids be done on short hair?
    Yes – as long as your hair is at least 4 inches long, extensions can be added for length and fullness.
  • How long does it take to install Boho Braids?
    The time it takes to install knotless braids varies based on braid size, hair length and thickness. Generally, small boho braids can take anywhere from 8 to 12 hours, while medium boho braids may take 3 to 7 hours, and large boho braids can be done in 2 to 4. Longer, thicker hair will require more time and braiding. Styles with intricate patterns or added details will take longer. The density of your hair can impact the time it takes to complete the braids.
  • How do I maintain Boho Braids?
    Wear a silk or satin bonnet/scarf at night. Apply leave-in conditioner & mousse to the curly ends as needed. Use a light oil on your scalp to keep it hydrated.
