This is my second time getting my hair braided. The first braider used half the amount of hair but braided my hair really tight. This new one used double the amount of hair but not super tight. It’s the exact same hair and the exact same style. Should I be worried that these braids are too heavy for my hair strands? I have thick hair and it’s pretty healthy.

Idk but personally. I like to go to the same person. I’m more concerned about different fingers in my hair. It’s probably their personal preference. Wash & sets as well.

Umm. I wish we had a cosmetology bowl. I’m guessing ppl do things differently. Like diff hair salons or diff wig instals.

You seem worried because you posted this here, but we wouldn’t know whether or not something is too heavy for your hair without pictures. Heaviness is a feeling you personally would know. Do the braids feel heavy to you? If they do then take them out. In the future let braiders know how many packs you’d like used.

I’m glad you like the way it looks and that it doesn’t feel too heavy! Trust yourself and how you feel about the style.

Does it feel heavy? The biggest concern with braids is the synthetic hair cutting into your real hair. Another is the use of edge control at the start of the braid bc it’s full of alcohol and can lead to your hair popping.

The heaviness may not pose an issue for your hair as much as it does for your neck.

No it doesn’t feel heavy at all. I’m just not very experienced with braids so I’m not sure what I should be concerned about here. Thank you!
