What knotless braids involve
The braider feeds extension hair into your own hair gradually instead of starting on a knot, so each braid sits flatter and pulls less at the root. Sizes run small, medium and jumbo, small is neatest and lasts longest but takes the most hours, jumbo is quickest and lightest but loosens sooner. Most London braiders offer all three, plus boho and curly-end finishes. For the full breakdown of sizes, lengths and who it suits, see the knotless braids style page.
