One or two days before
Wash your hair thoroughly, condition it and detangle it completely. Come with dry hair and no heavy oils, gel or hairspray: it is much easier to part and braid.
Still wearing old braids? Have them taken out first, or mention it in your request. At Komo Beauty, braid removal can also be booked as a service.
In your request
The more precise your request, the easier the appointment is to plan:
- The style you want, for example box braids, knotless, Fulani or twists.
- Length, thickness and colour of the braids.
- One or two inspiration photos.
- Whether you will bring the extension hair or it should be provided — check this directly with Cathy.
On the day
Allow plenty of time: braiding is handwork and takes several hours depending on the style and length. Comfortable clothes, something to drink and headphones make it more pleasant. Speak up if a braid feels too tight — your scalp should not hurt.
