No wand, no rollers, no setting spray. Just take it out and it moves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e1B Reads Softer Along the Bend\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nOn natural black #1B the motion looks gentler than it does on a flat jet #1, because the warm brown carried inside the black catches daylight as it rides each S rather than going dead matte. That faint warmth is what keeps the wave looking like weather moved it rather than a machine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Part Stays Clean the Longest\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nYou drag a comb down the same seam every morning re-parting a closure, and that's exactly where weaker hair starts to fuzz and knot. This is raw, cuticle-intact hair, its outer layer never scrubbed away to fake a slick feel, so those outer scales still run one direction from the root down and slide past each other under the friction. The part keeps its clean line through wash after wash rather than matting by the second one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWet It and the Wave Drops Back\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nIron it sleek for a night out and rinse the shape loose come sunrise, and the body wave settles right where it started. Water and heat only break the light bonds holding a borrowed shape, while the bonds carrying the real wave never move, so the strand just resets itself. That is the wave that grew in versus the one you talked it into for an evening.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA Full Square Over the Crown\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe 5x5 lays a real working square of lace across the top, well past a thin strip. Center part, deep side, off a corner, it all rides on one base, capping the spot where your body wave wefts stop short of the parting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSews Down and Holds for Weeks\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nYou sew it onto braided-down tracks, running a lock, double-lock, or overcast pass along the seam, and that grip carries a clean install a stretch of weeks with your own edges braided safe below. The hold is what buys you the low-maintenance run.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHD Lace Goes Quiet on 1B\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nOn a closure the lace only shows where you split the part, right over the crown, so a base sitting too thick reads as a pale film exactly where every eye lands first. HD is the sheerest grade there is, and on deep #1B it sinks into the scalp instead of casting that haze. Trim it uneven, leave a sliver at the border, done.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVirgin Pigment Takes Colour Straight\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nRaw #1B has never sat in bleach or box dye, so the colour inside each strand is whole and a new tone lands on it evenly, the way it would on hair off your own head. Carry the black up to #613 for a custom crown, and since a 5x5 only tops the part and not the full hairline, that's one tidy square to match to your bundles rather than a whole frontal to blend.\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% Raw 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\"\u003eBody Wave\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\"\u003eLace Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-value\"\u003eHD lace, designed for a seamless blend\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-label\"\u003ePart\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-value\"\u003eVersatile parting options\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 #613\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\", 18\"\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\"\u003eNatural-looking wavy styles with beautiful texture, versatile styling options, and a seamless blend\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat a Closure Actually Buys You\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA 5x5 closure is the finishing piece that tops off a \u003ca href=\"\/pages\/hair-extension-glossary#braid-and-sew-method\"\u003esew-in\u003c\/a\u003e or a wig. It closes off the top where your \u003ca href=\"\/pages\/hair-extension-glossary#weft\"\u003ewefts\u003c\/a\u003e or bundles run out, so no strand of your own gets left loose to blend and flat-iron every morning. Your real hair stays braided down and protected underneath, and the top of the install reads as one unbroken surface. That is where the seamless, natural-looking finish comes from. Natural black knotted on HD lace gives you that finished top without the obvious line a heavier base leaves behind.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMatch the Length to Your Bundles\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis one runs short, with a 14-inch option on top of the usual 16 and 18. Paired with the 5x5's compact crown footprint, that shorter cut suits a close, part-only finish where the closure isn't asked to do more than top the parting. Match it to your bundle length, or come one step under so the bundles carry the length while the closure handles the part. The body wave up top still feeds straight into the wave below, with no shelf where the two meet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Shine Is the Cuticle Doing Its Job\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRaw hair shows its quality in the light. In healthy hair the \u003ca href=\"\/pages\/hair-extension-glossary#cuticle\"\u003ecuticle\u003c\/a\u003e lies flat, its cells overlapping like shingles on a roof (Milady, Hair and Scalp Properties), and that smooth, unbroken surface is what throws the shine this hair is built for. Add body wave, which is really just the amount of movement worked into each strand, and you get hair that catches light and swings instead of lying flat. The color travels too, so the natural #1B can be lifted all the way to #613 when you want it. Keep it off scorching heat and both the wave and the gloss stay where they belong.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Locks of Hair","offers":[{"title":"14\"","offer_id":45565176840252,"sku":"RAW-HD-CLO-BW-5X5-14","price":143.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"16\"","offer_id":45565176873020,"sku":"RAW-HD-CLO-BW-5X5-16","price":160.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"18\"","offer_id":45565176905788,"sku":"RAW-HD-CLO-BW-5X5-18","price":174.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0629\/2294\/8668\/files\/hair-extensions-raw-body-wave-5x5-hd-lace-closure-natural-black-1b-0.jpg?v=1783781475","url":"https:\/\/locksofhair.com\/products\/hair-extensions-raw-body-wave-5x5-hd-lace-closure-natural-black-1b","provider":"Locks of Hair","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
