This is from Rae (zapevaj's) website

http://www.hairalchemy.com/tutorial/index.html

should give you some insight on pinch braids

I would guess they are the least damaging method available if done correctly.

they last as long as any other strand by strand.  until your hair grows out enough that the bonds show. ~2-3 months.

I have them, and I really like them. They're the gentlest method I've tried, and they last until I get them swtiched out (usually at about 3 months, as with any other method). I never shed or lose any either. Here's some more info.:

What do pinchbraids (a.k.a. string method, Hairpolice method) look like?

How can I learn the pinchbraid technique?
