Don’t exceed three months

Sew-ins can be great protective styles, but they are not meant to last forever. Leaving a hair weave in for too long can result in matting and extreme breakage. To avoid this fate, commit to seeing your stylist at least every three months to have your sew-in reinstalled. It can also be a good idea to give your hair week or month-long breaks between installations. Even if you don’t have the extreme results of matted hair after holding on to your sew-in for too long, extended-wear can at least make your strands a tangled mess that you won’t want to deal with.
