Kinky Curly Bulk Human Braiding Hair

For a full head of boho braids in all human hair, plan on about 350 to 450 grams, which is 4 to 5 of our 100-gram kinky curly bundles. If the braid body is synthetic and kinky curly is only the loose curly ends, 1 to 2 bundles is enough. Buy the higher number if you are between two.

Kinky curly braiding hair is a small, springy curl with some shine that blends with 3C to 4A texture and suits boho braids with curly ends. Afro kinky is denser and matte and matches 4B to 4C hair, which makes it the choice for twists, faux locs and loc extensions. Pick the one closest to your own texture.

A lot. Bulk hair folds at the root, so a 20-inch bundle hangs about 10 inches from the braid, and kinky curly then takes back close to a third of its length to the curl. A 20-inch kinky curly bundle wears at roughly 7 inches in a folded install. Order longer than the length you want to see.

Yes, usually for 2 to 3 installs. Unpick the braids rather than cutting them, then wash, condition and detangle the hair while it is wet, working from the ends up. Dry it flat and store it sealed. Expect to lose some density each time, so a third install often needs an extra bundle.

1B braiding hair is natural black, a soft off-black with a slightly warm cast rather than a flat jet black. It is the shade closest to most natural hair, which is why 1B is the default color for braiding hair and the easiest to blend.

Yes. Because this is virgin human braiding hair it takes color, and it will lift to about a #27 honey blonde. Lifting past that risks the integrity of the hair. For a lighter shade with no processing, start from our color 613 blonde braiding hair.

Yes. Mayvenn bulk braiding hair is 100% virgin human hair, not synthetic and not a human-synthetic blend. Virgin means it has not been chemically processed before it reaches you, which is why it takes heat, holds a curl and washes like your own hair.

Bulk braiding hair is hair sold loose, with no weft or track sewn along the top. Because there is no weft to cut away, bulk hair feeds straight into a braid, which is why it is the standard format for boho, knotless and goddess braids.

Boho braids made with human braiding hair usually last 4 to 6 weeks. The braids themselves hold longer than that, but new growth at the root is what decides the timing. The human hair can then be washed and reused for a second install.

Yes. Human braiding hair can be washed and reused, which is its main advantage over synthetic. After takedown, shampoo and condition gently in the direction of the strand, let it air dry fully, and store it loosely braided or in a satin bag.

Boho braids tangle least when the loose curly ends stay moisturized and covered at night. Wear a satin scarf or bonnet to bed, apply a light leave-in every few days, and finger-detangle the ends from the bottom up instead of brushing from the root.
