{"title":"Raw Hair Bundles","description":"\u003ch2\u003eSingle-Donor, Chemical-Free Hair — Cuticle Intact\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRaw hair comes from a single donor and never sees a chemical. No dyes, no relaxers, no silicone coatings. Every strand still has its cuticle, and every cuticle runs the same direction, which is the whole reason raw hair tangles less, lifts more predictably and outlasts processed hair.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRaw is the tier above virgin, and the difference is the donor rather than the chemistry. Virgin hair is also chemically untreated, but it is routinely blended across donors and worked in bulk so a whole batch matches. Raw is one head of hair, which is what buys the extra installs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSome raw hair is sold in the donor's own natural pattern — our Indian temple wavy and curly bundles, where each bundle carries its own wave and no two are identical. Some is steam-set into a texture: heat and moisture reshape the curl without lifting the cuticle or adding anything to the strand. Our raw body wave and Burmese curly are steam-set, which is why their pattern is consistent bundle to bundle. Both are raw.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRaw Hair Bundles FAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat is raw hair?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHair collected from a single donor and never chemically processed — no dyes, no relaxers, no silicone coatings. The cuticle is fully intact and every strand runs the same direction. Some raw hair is sold in the donor's own natural pattern; some is steam-set into a texture, which is a physical process rather than a chemical one. Both are raw.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat is the difference between raw and virgin hair?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe donor, not the chemicals — neither is chemically processed. Raw hair comes from one head, so every strand is the same age with the cuticles running one way. Virgin hair is chemically untreated too, but it is routinely blended across donors and worked in bulk so a whole batch matches. Single-donor is what makes raw lift more predictably and survive more installs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eIs steam-set hair still raw?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. Steaming is physical, not chemical. Heat and moisture reshape the curl without lifting the cuticle, adding anything to the strand, or altering the natural color. That is what separates a steam-set raw texture from a chemically processed one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eHow long do raw hair bundles last?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLonger than processed hair, because the cuticle is intact and aligned rather than stripped and coated. Two to three years across multiple installs is typical with careful washing and a satin bonnet at night.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[],"url":"https:\/\/shop.mayvenn.com\/collections\/raw-hair-bundles.oembed","provider":"Mayvenn","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
