Get answers to common questions about Micro Twists.

Installation time varies by hair density, twist size, and length. Expect around four to eight hours for a full-head set; finer or very long twists may take longer. We recommend a consultation so your stylist can give a tailored time and pricing estimate.

Micro Twists generally last four to eight weeks before needing maintenance, depending on hair growth and care routine. Smaller twists can look fresh longer, but touch-ups for edges and new growth every few weeks will keep the style neat.

Yes. We can incorporate synthetic or human hair for added length, volume, and color. Human hair offers more natural movement and styling options, while synthetic is lightweight and cost-effective. Your stylist will recommend the best option for your goals.

Micro Twists work on most natural and relaxed textures but typically require a minimum length of two to three inches to hold. Your stylist will assess hair health, density, and recommend adjustments for very fine or fragile hair.

Wash gently with diluted shampoo, focus on the scalp, and avoid heavy conditioners on the twists. Dry thoroughly, apply a light oil or leave-in to the scalp, sleep with a silk scarf, and avoid excessive pulling to maintain longevity.

When installed with proper tension by a trained stylist, Micro Twists are a protective style. Overly tight installation, heavy added hair, or neglect can cause stress and breakage. Communicate concerns and follow recommended care to protect your strands.
