Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Micro link maintenance.

We recommend maintenance every 6–8 weeks depending on hair growth, texture, and activity level. Regular check-ins prevent slippage, preserve blend, and reduce damage. Your stylist will advise a personalized schedule based on wear patterns and lifestyle.

Most sessions focus on tightening and re-securing loosened links rather than full replacement. If a bead or weft is damaged, we’ll discuss targeted replacements and any extra time or cost before proceeding.

Maintenance is generally comfortable. You may feel mild tugging while links are adjusted, but pain is rare. For sensitive scalps we use gentle techniques and breaks as needed to ensure comfort throughout the appointment.

Appointments typically take 45–90 minutes depending on how many links need tightening and any minor adjustments. Full corrective work or replacements may require longer. Your stylist will give a time estimate during consultation.

You can gently wash and style hair after maintenance, but avoid heavy pulling, tight hairstyles, and excessive heat for 24–48 hours. Use sulfate-free products and brush carefully to maintain link integrity and prolong results.

Maintenance is designed to preserve your existing look — it secures and repositions loose links without altering length or color. Any changes are minimal and discussed beforehand, focusing on a flawless, natural appearance.
