- Regular Cleaning: You can use a spray bottle to mix shampoo and water, gently spray on the hair and scalp, and then massage gently. Under the shower, rinse your hair with warm water to remove all shampoo. Finally, lightly apply some conditioner to your hair and rinse again.
- Moisturize: Use an alcohol-free moisturizing spray or oil, such as coconut or Moroccan oil, to hydrate your hair and scalp regularly.
- Overnight protection: Use a silk or satin turban to wrap your braids while you sleep to avoid friction and tangles.
- Avoid high temperatures: Avoid direct use of hair dryers, perming irons, or other hot tools that are too hot.
- Avoid heavy items: Avoid adding heavy hair beads or cuffs to your braids to avoid stress on your scalp and natural hair.
- Avoid prolonged wear: To protect the health of your natural hair and scalp, replacing it every 3-4 weeks is recommended.
Following the advice above, you can ensure your Crochet Box Braids look neat and maximize their lifespan.
How to remove?
Easy-to-follow removal guide.
- Find the Knot: Identify the knot where the braid connects to the cornrows underneath.
- Part your hair: Use bobby pins or your fingers to separate and secure your natural hair from your braided extensions.
- Cut off (if not reusing): If you don't want to reuse, you can just cut off the ends to make the removal process easier. Be careful not to cut your natural hair.
- Undo the braid: Use a crochet hook and insert it under the loop/knot of the braid. Gently pull the ends of the braid through the loop to free them from the cornrows.
- Pull out the braids: Once undone, gently pull the braids away from the cornrows. It should slide out easily.
Repeat this process for each braid until all braids have been removed. Remember to be careful and gentle throughout the process to avoid damage to your natural hair.

Can mermaid braids be dyed?
Synthetic Braids: No Dye. Human Hair Curls: Dyeable.
Our Crochet Mermaid Braids with Human Hair Curls are designed with a unique combination of materials, featuring synthetic fibers for the main structure of the braids and genuine human hair curls incorporated throughout. Due to the nature of these materials, there are specific considerations for dyeing:
The synthetic part of the braids is not suitable for dyeing. Synthetic fibers do not absorb hair dye like natural hair does, and attempting to alter their color can lead to damage and unsatisfactory outcomes. Therefore, we advise against trying to dye the synthetic sections of the braids.
On the other hand, the human hair curls that are part of the braids can be dyed. These curls can be treated much like your own hair, allowing for bleaching and coloring to achieve the desired shade. For best results and to ensure the longevity and quality of the braids, we highly recommend seeking the expertise of a professional hair stylist familiar with both synthetic and human hair extensions.
Additional Information: Always perform a patch test before applying dye to the entire set of curls, to avoid any unwanted reactions or colors. Additionally, bear in mind that frequent chemical treatments can compromise the health and appearance of the human hair curls, necessitating extra care and potentially leading to more frequent replacements. Proper aftercare, including the use of suitable products and techniques, is key to maintaining the beauty and integrity of your Crochet Mermaid Braids with Human Hair Curls.
