Base braid and structure
This service uses a circular braid base or up to eight cornrows as the foundation for the curly extensions. The chosen base affects coverage, parting lines, and the way the curls fall. Expect the stylist to select the base that best fits your desired shape and protection needs while minimizing tension on your scalp.
Because the base is limited to a circular set or no more than eight cornrows, intricate parting or dense cornrow patterns are outside this service scope. Extension hair and add-on services like deep conditioning or boxed perimeter are not included, so plan to bring hair or add those services when booking to achieve your final look.
Attaching curly extensions
Crochet attachment secures curly extension hair into the braid base so curls can sit more naturally than some sewn methods. The stylist will loop and secure sections to establish density and direction; choices here determine fullness and movement. Expect a focus on distributing curl volume evenly rather than building extremely high density within this service price.
Extension hair itself is not included in the listed price, and textures or quality of supplied hair affect the finished result. Services such as trimming, additional styling, protective hair-net application, or individually boxed perimeter work are available for an additional fee and should be added at booking if you want them completed at the same appointment.
Timing, price, and local factors
This crochet curly-install service is scheduled for 180 MINUTES and is priced at $225. Because Laurel has humid summers and commuter lifestyles, expect your stylist to consider environmental factors when setting curl placement and length. Evening and weekend appointments can accommodate busy schedules for clients coming from I-95, the MARC line, or nearby workplaces.
Call or text with questions before booking so the stylist can advise whether you should bring hair or select add-ons. No appointment changes can be made within 48 hours of your scheduled time, so confirm your needs and add any extra services at booking to avoid last-minute limitations.
