Loose Wave Hair: Bundles, Closures & Frontals

Loose wave hair sits between body wave and deep wave, which is why people searching for loose deep wave bundles usually end up here. The S is wider and softer than a deep wave and more defined than a body wave: enough pattern to see, not so much that you are managing it every morning.

Loose wave comes in natural black, which is 100% virgin Brazilian human hair, and three colors. Every bundle weighs 100 grams and is steamed into the wave rather than chemically set. The pattern comes back after every wash instead of dropping out over a few weeks.

How to choose your length and color

The natural black bundle runs 10 to 32 inches. That is the full range and the one for a long install. The colored bundles run 16 to 24 inches in #1 jet black, #2 chocolate brown and #4 caramel brown.

Length is measured with the hair pulled straight, so a loose wave hangs one to two inches shorter than the number once it settles. Order an inch or two over what you want to see.

Matching loose wave closures run from 2x6 to 7x7, and there are 13x4 and 13x6 loose wave frontals. The colored 5x5 transparent closures cover the same three shades as the bundles, so a colored install can be finished in the same color rather than dyed to match.

For a three-bundle install, the Loose Wave 3 Bundle Deal is three bundles in three consecutive lengths, 100 grams each, for less than buying them one at a time: 20, 22 and 24 inches is $281 against $299 as singles.

Questions people ask about loose wave

What is loose wave hair?

Loose wave is a wide, open S-pattern with visible definition and a lot of swing. It falls between body wave and deep wave on the texture scale. On virgin bundles the wave is steamed in rather than chemically set, so it survives washing and springs back rather than relaxing out.

Is loose wave the same as loose deep wave?

They are the same texture under two names. Loose deep wave means a deep wave that has been loosened, which is exactly where this pattern sits: a deep wave S opened up into something wider and easier to wear. If a stylist quotes you loose deep wave, these bundles are what she means.

How long does a loose wave sew-in last?

Six to eight weeks. Past that, the braids underneath start to matt at the base and it costs you your own hair. Wash with sulfate-free shampoo, condition mid-shaft to ends, scrunch the water out rather than rubbing, and detangle wet from the ends up with a wide-tooth comb. A leave-in on damp hair keeps the wave soft. Bonnet it at night, and keep a flat iron at 350 and below, because 450 straightens a wave for good.
