Why knotless?
Traditional box braids start with a knot of braiding hair at the root. Knotless braids start with your own hair and add braiding hair gradually, so:
- There is less tension on your scalp and edges.
- They lie flatter and look more natural at the root.
- They are lighter and more comfortable from day one.
Compare the two in knotless braids vs. box braids.
How long do knotless braids last?
Most people wear them for 4–8 weeks. Leaving braids in much longer can cause matting and breakage at the root, so plan your takeout. If you would like us to do it, book Takeout and Detangle before your next service.
