Afro Boho Curls
Soft, airy braids with textured curls that frame the face and move easily from brunch to weddings and weekends away. Wash, hydration treatment and premium fibre are included with every booking.
Is Afro Boho Curls a good match for you
Choose this style if you love the ease of braids with the softness of free flowing curls and you want a look that feels romantic but still practical.
- You enjoy a fuller, textured finish rather than a very sleek braid look.
- You like pieces that frame your face and work well for photos, events and everyday wear.
- Your lifestyle allows you a few extra minutes in the week to care for curls so they stay soft instead of tangling.
- You want a style that works for brunches, date nights and special occasions without feeling overdone.
When not to get this style
- Skip if your ends feel very dry or fragile. If your natural hair feels rough, breaks easily or looks dull at the ends, we recommend starting with a strengthening treatment before adding extra curl fibre.
- Pause if your scalp is already irritated. If you recently had a tight install, notice redness, flaking or burning, begin with a Soothing Scalp Treatment and a low tension style while your scalp recovers.
- Avoid if you dislike any extra maintenance. Afro Boho curls need a little misting, finger detangling and night care. If you prefer a completely low touch style, a simpler braid like classic Knotless or Box Braids may suit you better for now.

See the look
Afro Boho Curls combine neat braids at the base with soft curls through the lengths and ends. The finish feels light, airy and layered rather than heavy or stiff.
Hair and fibre notes in plain language
We keep the science simple and focus on how your hair and curls behave in real life.
- Mix of smooth braid and soft curl. We use a blend of straight and curly fibre so the base stays neat while the ends feel light and textured instead of stiff.
- Curl friendly tension. The braid pattern is set to hold curls securely without over pulling your natural hair, especially around the hairline and nape.
- Helps protect while you play. Your natural hair is tucked away inside the braid and shielded from daily manipulation while you enjoy the volume and movement of the boho finish.
Aftercare tips
Simple habits to keep your Afro Boho Curls soft, defined and wearable for longer.
- Mist, do not soak. Use a light leave in mist or curl refresher on the ends instead of heavy creams so the curls stay light and separate.
- Finger detangle only. Gently separate any tangles with your fingers. Avoid combs or brushes on the curls to prevent frizz and shedding.
- Set at night. Wrap your roots with a satin scarf and gather curls in a loose pineapple or bonnet so they are not trapped under your pillow.
- Refresh curls as needed. A small amount of mousse or foam on the ends, set in loose twists or braids overnight, can bring the curl pattern back to life.
- Wear for 4 to 6 weeks. This time frame supports scalp health, keeps tangling manageable and makes takedown easier when you are ready for a reset.
Questions clients often ask
Will the curls tangle quickly
With the right fibre and light weekly care, most clients find their curls stay wearable and soft. We talk you through a simple routine during your appointment so you know exactly what to do at home.
How long do Afro Boho Curls last
On average this style wears best for four to six weeks. After that, new growth and natural tangling at the ends can make removal and maintenance less comfortable.
Can I gym or travel with this style
Yes. For gym sessions a satin scarf or band protects your roots. When travelling, a bonnet or silk scarf at night and gentle misting in the morning keep the curls fresh.
Is it suitable for all hair types
Afro Boho Curls work well on most 3b to 4c textures. If your hair is very fine at the hairline we adjust section size and fibre so the look stays light and kind to your edges.
Will my curls feel heavy
No. We build the volume in layers so your style feels full without weighing down your neck or pulling on your scalp. Your service includes a full hydration ritual and a 72 hour comfort adjustment window if anything needs to be eased.
