Braids & Protective Styles

How long do knotless braids last?

Typically, 4–8 weeks, depending on your hair type, braid size, and maintenance.

What should I do before a braiding appointment?

Please arrive with clean, detangled hair. Avoid heavy oils or creams, as they can make braiding harder.

Do braids help with hair growth?

Yes! Protective styles like braids help reduce breakage and stress, allowing your natural hair to grow healthier.

Wig Installs

Do I need to bring my own wig?

Yes, but if you’re unsure, we can recommend high-quality wigs for the best results.

What’s the difference between a closure and a frontal install?

  • Closure wigs cover a smaller section of the head, require less maintenance, and are great for beginners.

  • Frontal wigs offer styling versatility and a natural hairline but require more upkeep.

How long does a wig install last?

Typically 2–4 weeks, depending on whether it’s glueless, sewn-in, or adhesive-based.

Natural Hair Care

Do you offer treatments for natural hair?

Yes! We provide silk presses, twist-outs, trims, and restorative treatments to keep your natural hair healthy.

How should I maintain my natural hair between appointments?

Use a satin bonnet or scarf at night, keep your scalp moisturized, and avoid overusing heat tools.

Weaves & Extensions

How long does a weave install last?

On average, 6–8 weeks, depending on care and hair type.

Can I wash my weave?

Yes, but use sulfate-free shampoo and avoid heavy products to prevent buildup.

Will a weave damage my natural hair?

Not if installed and maintained properly. At Beauty By Kay, we prioritize protective methods to keep your natural hair safe.
