Hair Extensions - Yaki Straight 7x7 HD Lace Closure - Natural Black (1B)

The Widest Part a Closure Carries
Seven inches square is the largest top you get before the piece becomes a frontal, forty-nine square inches of lace sitting over the crown. That footprint is what this square is for: center it, drop it low to one side, angle the corner, and every one of those partings lands on this single sew-in piece. You reach that range without the ear-to-ear hairline a frontal wants, and without the knot-bleaching and edge work that hairline signs you up for.

Where the Wefts End and the Skin Begins
Two things have to disappear across a part this long. HD rides on the thinnest knotting filaments made, so the base starts out near see-through, and set over a deep 1B scalp it finishes hiding on its own, reading as skin rather than mesh with no tinting or knot-bleaching first. The wefts sewn behind it hold the same way: cornrow your own hair flat, lay them down, and lock the closure with cotton-covered polyester, the one thread built for it. Plain cotton shrinks as it dries and bare polyester saws through the strand, so the cotton sheath guards the hair while the polyester core holds the length, all of it braided away underneath with nothing glued to skin.

A Pressed Grain Instead of a Bright Panel
The wider the part, the more a shiny bundle would give itself away down that long open line. Yaki's pressed-in grain scatters light soft and diffused the way relaxed hair does, so seven inches of parting reads like a fresh silk-press rather than a panel catching the sun. That low sheen earns its keep here in a way it never has to on a smaller square.

Press the Part, Wash It Home
Its straightness lives in hydrogen bonds, the temporary kind water resets. A flat iron sharpens the part for the day and one wash-and-air-dry drops it back, so run a thermal protectant before the iron ever meets the hair. It falls back to the yaki grain rather than to glass, which means the pressed texture returns on its own, no tool, wear after wear.

An Even Lift Clear Across the Crown
Ships a virgin 1B, its pigment set evenly the length of every strand with a cuticle that has never been chemically opened. That is what lets a lightener draw the color up to a honey blonde with an even, unbroken lift, no light-and-dark blotching, held uniform across a part this wide where a patchy pull would show over the whole crown. Or leave the virgin 1B as delivered and skip the lightener entirely. Two cuts are made, a 16 and an 18, to match the fall behind.
