Frequently Asked Questions re: Natural Hairstyles

How long will my style last?

That depends on the client, the care taken to preserve the style, and your overall lifestyle. It also depends on the history of your hair. For example, clients who are getting their hair Silk Pressed every 2-weeks will typically be able to last 2-weeks until their next refresh. If you are straightening your natural hair for the first time, you will likely only get a week out of your style because your hair has not yet been “trained” to lay flat. On average, your natural style should last anywhere from 1-3 weeks.

What do I do when I go to bed?

This depends on the style you’ve had done, but it is always good practice to sleep with a silk scarf or pillowcase to keep your style locked down while you sleep. For straight styles, try wrapping your hair around your head and loosely securing with clips before adding your silk scarf. For curly styles, use clips to loosely secure your curls (pin curling) then add a silk scarf.

What if I work out/sweat a lot?

Clients are are very active and sweat a lot will likely need added products and routines to preserve their style and keep their scalp fresh. Your stylist can recommend products like dry shampoos and refreshing oils to help your hair hold to your lifestyle.

When do I need to come back?

This is dependent on your unique hair needs. Some clients may get the most benefit from every-other-week visits to maintain their style and the health of their hair. Other clients may only need once-per-month visits or quarterly maintenance trims to ensure their hair and scalp remain at optimal health.
