We want every visit to feel relaxed and comfortable — from the moment you arrive to the moment you leave.

💆‍♀️

🧴

✂️

✨

Finishing & Aftercare Advice

We seal and finish your braids properly, then walk you through how to care for them at home.

Braid Aftercare Tips

01

Moisturise Daily

Spray a light water-based moisturiser or hair mist on your braids and scalp every day to prevent dryness.

02

Sleep with a Satin Bonnet

Cotton pillowcases cause friction and frizz. A satin bonnet or pillowcase keeps braids smooth and neat for longer.

03

Oil Your Scalp Weekly

Apply a light oil (like our Growth Oil) to your scalp between braids every 5–7 days to keep it nourished.

04

Don't Leave In Too Long

Remove braids by 6–8 weeks maximum. Leaving them longer risks matting, breakage, and scalp buildup.

Plaiting FAQ

How long do braids last? +
With proper care, our braids last 4–8 weeks. We recommend removing them by week 6–8 to protect your natural hair.
Do I need to bring my own hair? +
No — we supply extensions for most styles. Just tell us your preferred length and colour when booking.
Is plaiting painful? +
Not at Botho. We specialise in pain-free styling — we never pull too tight and check your comfort throughout.
Can I wash my braids? +
Yes. Use a diluted shampoo, focus on the scalp, and let them air dry completely to prevent mildew or loosening.
What should I do before my appointment? +
Come with detangled, clean hair if possible — or we can wash it for you. Bring a reference photo if you have one.
How do I book? +
Just WhatsApp us! Tell us which style you want and your preferred date. We'll confirm your slot quickly.
