*All hair included
Knotless Braids have quickly become one of the most requested protective styles. Instead of beginning with a knot, the braider starts the braid using your natural hair and gradually feeds in the extension hair. This approach creates a sleek, flat braid that lays naturally against the scalp and eliminates the heavy, bulky feeling that some people experience with traditional box braids. You’ll enjoy increased comfort, less scalp tension, and a more natural look. It’s perfect for first-timers, kids, and anyone who wants a long-lasting style with easier maintenance.
