Properly installed Senegalese twists are low-tension and gentle, minimizing breakage. To protect hair, avoid excessively tight parts, moisturize scalp regularly, and don’t keep twists longer than recommended. Our stylists customize tension for your hair to prioritize health.

Small Senegalese twists typically last six to eight weeks with proper care. Regular scalp moisturizing, wearing a silk bonnet at night, and gentle cleansing extend lifespan. Schedule maintenance if you notice significant new growth or frizz to refresh edges.

Aftercare: moisturize scalp and twists twice weekly with light oil or braid spray, sleep on a silk scarf, and cleanse gently every one to two weeks. Avoid heavy manipulation and high-heat styling. Return for touch-ups when edges loosen or fullness decreases.
