Curly Hair Extensions

Yes - 100% Remy human hair, always. This matters because real human hair holds its curl pattern naturally and blends with your own texture in a way synthetic hair never can. Our curly extensions are carefully processed to maintain the curl integrity. You'll feel the difference the moment you touch them.

We're transparent about this - our curly textures are created through a steam process applied to naturally straight Indian temple hair. The curl pattern is set permanently and won't wash out. With proper care, the curls maintain their shape beautifully for the life of the extensions. We've refined this process over nearly 20 years to ensure the texture looks and feels natural.

The biggest rule: don't brush curly extensions when they're dry. Detangle gently with a wide-tooth comb or your fingers while they're wet and conditioned. Use sulfate-free products, deep condition regularly, and let them air dry whenever possible. If the curls start loosening over time, a light mist of water and a curl-refreshing product brings them right back. For the full routine, see our extension care guide.

It depends on your lifestyle. Curly clip-ins are perfect if you want flexibility to take them in and out. Wefts and tape-ins work well for semi-permanent wear. The most important thing with curly extensions is matching the curl pattern to your natural texture so they blend seamlessly. Reach out if you're not sure which method is right for you.

This is the question that matters most for a natural-looking result. We carry multiple curl patterns from loose body wave to tight coily textures. Look at your hair when it's freshly washed and in its natural state - that's the pattern you want to match. If you're between two textures, lean toward the tighter one. You can also order our texture ring to compare swatches at home, or send us a photo and we'll tell you which texture is your best match.

Since they're 100% human hair, yes - you can straighten them with a flat iron and the curls will return after washing. We don't recommend doing this every day since repeated heat styling can gradually loosen the curl pattern over time. But for the occasional straight look, they bounce right back. Always use a heat protectant. For the full step-by-step, read our guide on straightening curly extensions.

We do - this is an area we're especially focused on. We carry kinky curly and coily textures specifically designed to blend with type 4 hair. Finding extensions that match tighter curl patterns has historically been difficult, and we've worked hard to develop textures that blend naturally with 4B and 4C hair.

Tangling is the number one concern with curly extensions, and the fix is all in the routine. Detangle gently with a wide-tooth comb starting from the ends while the hair is wet and conditioned. Sleep with your hair in a loose pineapple or satin bonnet. Use a leave-in conditioner and avoid touching or scrunching the curls too much throughout the day.
