With proper care, extensions can last six to twelve weeks before a maintenance visit, depending on hair growth and attachment method. Regular upkeep and scheduled follow-ups keep seams tidy and reduce tension at the roots.

Yes—you can wash and style your locs, but follow aftercare guidance. Use gentle cleansing, avoid heavy conditioners at the roots, and limit manipulation. Proper drying and protective styling prevent odor, mildew, and premature loosening.
