About Protective Styling & Braiding
My Approach to Braiding
I see protective styling as way more than just a fresh look. It's about giving your natural hair a break, letting it grow and thrive underneath. I focus on Afro braiding techniques that suit your hair’s vibe, whether you want bold box braids or something more subtle. If you’re in the mood for a colour switch - maybe silver or grey - I’m up for that too.
Hair Health First
I won’t braid too tight. No pulling, no drama on your hairline. It’s all about keeping your curls safe and happy. Traction alopecia prevention is at the core of my work - I stick to styles that protect, not stress your roots. Braids are fab, but they need to come out after 6-8 weeks so your own hair can breathe.
How I Guide You
I’ll show you all the basics for looking after your braids:
- Wash your scalp and braids every week or two, go easy with the shampoo.
- Hydrate your scalp with light oils, and spritz your braids with water and leave-in.
- Night time? Always wrap with a silk scarf for braids or sleep on a silk pillowcase. Keeps frizz away, helps your style last.
- If you want to jazz things up - cuffs, beads, light mousse - no worries, just be gentle.
I want you to leave feeling confident, knowing your curls are protected and styled just right.

My Story
Hi, I’m Christina. You know, folks always used to say, ‘Aapke baal jhadu jaise hain’ (your hair’s like a broom), and it hurt. I got tired of seeing curly heads struggle just to fit in. That’s why I started Curl Talk. This isn’t just a salon in Mumbai – it’s where curls are celebrated, not hidden. Over 10,000 curlies have sat in our chairs, and every ‘WOW!’ I hear after a makeover keeps me going. My real joy? Watching you fall in love with your own hair.
