With proper care, a Braided Ponytail can last three to six weeks. Lifespan depends on hair growth, grooming, and activities. We recommend light nightly protection, minimal tension styling, and a refresh appointment every three to four weeks to maintain neatness and scalp health.

When installed correctly using feed-in cornrow technique and moderate tension, the style is low-risk. We prioritize edge care, avoid excessive pulling, and recommend moisturizing and gentle cleansing. Notify your stylist of sensitivities so we can adjust tension and protect fragile areas.
