Hair Extensions - Raw Burmese Curly 13x4 HD Lace Frontal - Natural Black (1B)

Curl Grown In Rather Than Rodded In
No wand set this. A curl this crisp grows out of a strand that bends along its whole length from the root, so the volume and the movement are built in, the kind you can't fake with a hot tool. Left alone it drops into a curly look on its own.

Spirals That Slide Instead of Snag
A curl is a run of little corkscrews, and corkscrews hook onto each other the second one strand's surface runs against the grain of the next. This one is raw, the way unprocessed bundles should behave, so every loop turns in the same matched direction and the coils pass by one another rather than locking arms. A texture that would usually knot at the basin stays loose enough to finger through.

The Curl Hides the Knots Twice
A coil never lies flat against the base, so each one arcs up and drops a little shade over the knots resting under it. A straight front leaves that grid open to the light, but here the texture fans across the perimeter and screens the knots two ways over, once by the fine HD weave and once by the curl sitting on top of it.

Thirteen Inches, Whole Front Rebuilt
Set a middle part or swing it hard to one side and the lace still reaches out to both temples, with four inches of depth behind the hairline. That span is enough to lay the whole front edge in one piece rather than patching a crown part, and wherever you drop the part no track breaks the surface.

Every Bend Reads the Colour, So Lift It Even
On a curl, a spotty lift betrays itself at each turn, because every loop shows the light a fresh face and a skipped stage would flash light-dark-light down the spiral. Raw #1B has never been chemically opened, so a lightener travels the strand at one rate and carries up to #613 with no bands chasing the coils, or wear it as-is in black.

Heavy Coil, Snug Stitch
Lock it to cornrow tracks with a curved needle, glue it as a frontal, or set it on a cap. A defined curl packs more weight into every inch than a flat texture, so keep the stitch tension tight to carry that spring against gravity, and at takedown ease the thread out slow, since a coil grabs a fast-pulled stitch and cinches back on itself.

Wet It and It Draws Up Tight
Dry, the spiral hangs a touch longer and looser. Wet it down and it pulls in short, clumping the loose ends back into packed ringlets as it shrinks toward its true length. Rake a little product through with your fingers, hand-coil a piece or two at the front, and it sets to a clean curl with a spray bottle alone, no rod and no heat.

A Front That Stays Defined Till Dark
A 13x4 puts a full ear-to-ear stretch of curl right at the front, the strip that meets sun and dry air all day, so that exposed edge is the part you want soft and springy by evening. Work a weekly mask through the frontal and the raw surface takes it clean across, holding those front coils defined from morning on rather than frizzing out at the hairline by night.
