Knotless braids are installed using a feed-in technique that starts with the natural hair only, with no anchor knot at the root.

1. Section the hair into even parts based on the desired braid size.
2. Begin braiding with the natural hair only for the first 1–2 passes.
3. Gradually feed in small sections of braiding hair extension as you braid downward.
4. Continue adding extension hair in increments until the braid reaches the desired thickness and length.
5. Secure the end of the braid with hot water or a rubber band.
6. Repeat for all sections. Full installation typically takes 4–8 hours depending on braid size and length.

Daily Care

• Wrap braids with a silk or satin scarf or bonnet at night to reduce frizz and moisture loss.
• Apply a lightweight braid spray or hair oil (e.g., jojoba or rosehip) to the scalp every 2–3 days to keep it moisturized.

Washing

• Wash every 2–3 weeks using a diluted shampoo or a scalp-focused cleanser.
• Focus on the scalp; squeeze shampoo down the braids rather than rubbing.
• Rinse thoroughly and allow braids to air dry completely to prevent mildew.

Edge Care

• Avoid styles that pull edges tightly.
• Apply an edge control or edge oil to keep baby hairs moisturized and laid.
