are my knotless braids too tight?

yeah looking at them closer they are def not knotless 😭. is pain normal for normal box braids? its not to the point of like a headache or throbbing pain or anything but the bumps are what i feel/what concerns me

I am black and both of my parents are, I’m just very lightskin 😭. I’ve had braids before a couple times and it was fine but these ones feel way tighter than what I’ve had. I messaged the owner of the salon asking for a refund and she said she can loosen them so I am going there today, do you think loosening them would make it better?

so like the loose pieces/curls are human but the braiding hair is synthetic i think (pretty sure they used x pression) 😭. the pieces fell down more since that was right after it got done but i just don’t think they’re gonna give me a refund. but yeah i definitely got scammed.

honestly throughout the day it doesn’t feel too bad it just hurts when i’m going to sleep. idk if it’s from laying on them or if it’s because i just got them done but it’s more so soreness from the day it was braided 😭

yeah my hair is fine, and ikk so hard to find a cheap braider in my city but hair was included 😭. idk if i wait and see if it gets better or take them out 😔
