It finishes the top right where your kinky curly bundles leave off, the middle-ground closure between a little 4x4 and \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/locksofhair.com\/blogs\/hair-education\/top-lace-frontal-and-closures-for-a-natural-look\"\u003ea frontal you may not need\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA Coil Whose Memory Doesn't Wear Out\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe strongest links inside a strand are its disulfide bonds, and those are what hold this kink. A chemical is the only thing that can rearrange them for good, and nothing chemical ever touched this coil. So it can't slacken or go limp the way a rod-set curl loosens over the weeks a sew-in stays in. It springs back the same, wash after wash.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePress the Part Zone, Rinse It Home\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nWarmth and water loosen the softer, temporary bonds in the coil, which is how you can flat-iron the parting sleek for a smooth center one day and wet it back to kink the next. On a five-inch square that job is quick, since only a small patch of lace and hair meets the iron while the rest stays coiled. Lay down a heat protectant before every pass.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA Compact Window That Stays Invisible\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nA five-inch square gives HD very little to hide. The sheer mesh covers a smaller parting field than the wider bases do, so there's less of it to melt and less edge to blend, and against deep natural black it throws none of the pale cloudiness a heavier lace would. A small window like this is the easiest kind to vanish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStitched Down With Thread That Won't Bite\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nBuilt to sew in or set into a custom unit, it anchors to your braided-down cornrows with a curved needle and a lock stitch worked along the seam. The thread is cotton wrapped over a polyester core, so it holds the length without shrinking up or sawing into the hair. Your edges stay braided under it, nothing of yours left out, and a braid-and-sew like this holds for weeks before a reset.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTakes the Re-Parting Without Fraying\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nMoving the part from center to side and back, plus all the raking and finger-coiling textured hair asks for, is a lot of pulling on one small area. Virgin strands have the give for it: they stretch when wet and recoil clean instead of snapping, so the coil keeps its pattern through the handling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLift the 1B or Leave It\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nShips in 14 and 16 inches, the shorter end of the range. Keep the deep 1B just as shipped, or lift it to sit alongside colored bundles. Because this pigment was never box-dyed, a lightener reads the whole strand the same and carries it up toward honey blonde with none of the blotchy bands over-processed hair throws.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ctable class=\"specs-table\"\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth class=\"spec-header\"\u003eFeature\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth class=\"spec-header\"\u003eDetails\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-label\"\u003eHair Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-value\"\u003e100% Virgin Human Hair\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-label\"\u003eTexture\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-value\"\u003eKinky Curly\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-label\"\u003eLace Size\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-value\"\u003e5x5 HD Lace Closure\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-label\"\u003eColor\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-value\"\u003eNatural Black\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-label\"\u003eColoring Capability\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-value\"\u003eCan be lifted to Honey Blonde\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-label\"\u003eLace Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-value\"\u003eHD Lace – creates a seamless blend\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-label\"\u003eHeat Styling\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-value\"\u003eHeat friendly – style as desired\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-label\"\u003eLength\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-value\"\u003e14\", 16\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-label\"\u003eRecommended Use\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-value\"\u003ePerfect for sew-ins and custom wigs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKeeping the Coil From Locking Down\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHere is the catch with a coil sewn over lace: your scalp's own oil never reaches it. On your head those oils travel down the strand and keep a tight curl supple. Stitched onto a base, this hair is cut off from that supply, and a starved coil is the first texture to knot and pack down on you. So you feed it from the outside on a schedule. Smooth a moisturizing conditioner through every time you wash, and press a richer treatment in every couple of weeks so the pattern stays soft instead of wiry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo habits matter most at a five-inch part. Before you wash, gather the length into one loose plait so the coils can't tangle into each other while the water runs through them, then take it down after. And when you sleep, lay it on satin and never lay it down wet. Do that and the spring keeps opening back up each day rather than felting into a mat you have to cut out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eOne Curl, Lace to Ends\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe closure is the finishing piece, capping the parting and crown on a \u003ca href=\"\/pages\/hair-extension-glossary#braid-and-sew-method\"\u003esew-in\u003c\/a\u003e or standing in as the front of a unit you put together yourself, and it carries the same defined kink your bundles do.
