We recommend waiting 48 to 72 hours before thoroughly washing a new Vixen Sew-In to allow the braids and wefts to settle. Use a gentle, sulfate-free shampoo and focus on scalp cleansing to prevent buildup without loosening the sew-in.

Pricing varies by length, texture, and customizations like hand-tied parts or premium hair. At Augusta Hair Braiding and Micro Locs we provide transparent quotes after consultation; typical ranges reflect quality materials, stylist experience, and time investment.

Keep your scalp moisturized with lightweight oils, sleep on a satin pillowcase or use a bonnet, avoid heavy products at the roots, and gently detangle ends. Schedule touch-up appointments and follow your stylist's washing guidance to maintain appearance and protect your hair.
