Braids can be refreshed every four weeks, especially at the front, and then rebraided to protect the hairline. Braids can be worn anywhere between six and eight weeks, depending on your needs, but should be restyled to incorporate new growth and to prevent your natural hair from tangling into the extensions. Hair that’s fine and straight may loosen faster than curlier, kinkier textures. Wearing braids for long periods of time can cause hair loss and damage, so it’s advisable to wear your hair naturally, if you can, from time to time."

Are box braids bad for hair? 

"The biggest factor to note when wearing braids is the possibility of traction alopecia. Braids should never be painful when being applied, and hair should never be tugged or pulled tightly. If you ever notice bumps or small white pimples on the scalp or experience itchiness, redness or soreness, and a generally very tender scalp, braids should be removed immediately as these are all symptoms of traction alopecia. Although it is possible to do box braids on your own, most women prefer having them done by an expert braider for ease and efficiency."
