What quality of human hair are the bundles?

How many textures are available?
+2 textures: body wave and deep curl.
How many bundles of the human braiding hair do I need?
+How long are the human braiding hair bundles?
+Full length of each bundle is 20 inches. Folded length is 10”.
Can I dye/colour the braid-it naturals?
+Yes you can. Each bundle is 100% human hair so can be bleached or dyed. We would advise professionally dyeing/lifting the bundles: Natural black (1b) bundles can be lifted to colour #27. Lighter colour bundles can be tinted using semi-permanent hair colour. Note that colouring and/or lifting the hair will diminish the quality, performance, and longevity of the hair.
Can I use the human braiding hair with synths?
+You absolutely can! For a seamless complete look, we recommend using the Braid-It synths in either bone straight or textured straight for the main plaits and adding the human hair to the ends and/or for boho pieces.
Do I have to wash the hair before using it?
+Each bundle arrives ready to use, but should you wish to, you can wash the hair before and/or after installing your braids.
Usually I have a reaction to normal braiding hair, will I react to this?
+Each bundle is 100% human hair meaning it is hypoallergenic and highly unlikely to cause any adverse reactions.
Are the human braiding hair bundles reusable?
+Absolutely! Our human braiding hair bundles are our most reusable braiding hair yet! With proper use and care, they can be reused upwards of 10x.
