Frequently Asked Questions
Get answers to common questions about Takedown.
Most takedown appointments for medium-sized braids take 60–120 minutes, depending on braid density and hair length. Thicker or longer hair can require more time, while smaller or looser braids may finish faster. We allocate sufficient time for gentle removal.
When performed correctly by our stylists, takedown should not damage natural hair. We use gentle techniques, detangling, and conditioning to minimize breakage. Existing damage or very tight braids may require extra care or treatments to restore hair health.
Yes — we include or offer deep conditioning during takedown for medium-size braids. This helps restore moisture, reduce tangles, and strengthen strands. Add-ons like protein treatments are available if your hair shows extra dryness or damage after removal.
Pricing is based on medium-size braids as our standard. If your braids are smaller, the time and labor decrease, so price is adjusted accordingly. Request an estimate during booking or send photos for a more accurate quote.
We recommend arriving with clean, dry hair when possible, but avoid heavy oils or products that make detangling harder. If you can’t wash beforehand, our stylist will cleanse and prepare your scalp during the appointment for a smooth takedown.
Often yes — many clients choose reinstalling braids after takedown on the same day. It depends on hair condition and scheduling. We assess your hair after removal and recommend whether immediate installation or a restorative break is best for healthy results.
