With proper installation and care, Crochet Senegalese Twists can last four to eight weeks. Longevity depends on hair growth, maintenance routine, and activities; touch-ups or reinstallation may be recommended after six weeks to maintain neatness and scalp health.

When installed and removed by a skilled stylist, Crochet Senegalese Twists are gentle and protective. Avoid excessive tension, heavy extensions, or prolonged wear; regular scalp care and timely removal prevent breakage and preserve hair health.

Yes, you can swim and exercise, but protect your twists by wearing a swim cap and rinsing/conditioning hair afterward. Chlorine and saltwater can dry extensions; regular moisturizing and gentle drying prevent frizz and extend style life.

Keep twists fresh by lightly moisturizing scalp and braids, cleaning with diluted shampoo or dry-cleanse methods, and avoiding heavy oils. Sleep with a satin scarf, touch up edges as needed, and schedule removal before excessive new growth causes stress.

Crochet Senegalese Twists work well for most hair textures, especially natural and textured hair. For fine or fragile hair, we recommend lighter extensions and gentle tension. A consultation helps determine suitable density and length to avoid undue stress on roots.

Installation time varies by hair length, twist size, and braid base, typically taking two to four hours. Smaller twists or fuller styles may take longer; during consultation we provide an estimated timeframe so you can plan accordingly.
