The Hook
Okay, so let me tell you about the day I finally found kinky curly tape-ins that actually match natural texture. Not gonna lie, I spent YEARS watching clients struggle with extensions that looked like they just stuck straight hair onto their beautiful curls. You know that look, where you can literally see where the natural hair ends and the extension begins? Yeah, we're not doing that anymore.
These Locks Of Hair kinky curly tape-ins? Girl, they're exactly what I've been searching for. The curl pattern matches that gorgeous 3B-3C texture perfectly. No more trying to blend straight extensions with curly hair (the struggle was so real).

What Makes This Special
Real talk: finding tape-ins for textured hair used to be like searching for a unicorn. Most companies would just perm straight hair and call it "curly" but honey, we all know that texture relaxes after the first wash. These extensions? They're cut from donors with naturally kinky curly hair. That means the curl pattern is actually IN the hair structure, not just styled on top.
Back when I was doing installs professionally, I remember this one client who came in crying because her previous extensions looked like she had glued a straight wig to the bottom of her curls. We spent three hours custom curling regular tape-ins just to get them to somewhat match. Now? With these virgin hair tape-ins, you get that perfect kinky curly texture right out of the package. And since they're 100% virgin human hair, you can color them up to that honey blonde #27 if you want some highlights without damaging your natural hair.
Here's what really sold me though. Each pack gives you 40 pieces, which breaks down to 20 sandwiches. That's enough for a full install if you have medium density hair, or perfect for adding volume if your curls are already pretty full. The 100 grams gives you that nice weight where you feel the difference but your scalp isn't screaming by day three.
The Real Details
Here's the thing about kinky curly tape-ins that nobody talks about. They need moisture. Like, way more than straight tape-ins. But honestly? Your natural curls need that same moisture routine anyway, so you're already doing the work. Just make sure you're keeping the conditioner away from those tape bonds (learned that one the hard way when half my install slipped out in the shower).
Installation is exactly the same as regular tape-ins. Take your section, sandwich it between two pieces, press firmly, done. The difference is you can actually see your natural texture continue through the length. No weird straight pieces poking out when humidity hits. No flat ironing your roots just to make everything match. Just wash, add your curl cream, and go.
Since these are virgin hair, they'll last through multiple reinstalls. I've had clients reuse the same hair for six months, just replacing the tape every 6-8 weeks. When you think about it, that makes these super budget-friendly for the quality you're getting.
Bottom Line
Girl, if you've been struggling to find extensions that honor your natural texture instead of fighting against it, these are it. Premium virgin hair, perfect curl match, enough pieces for a full install, and they can even be colored if you're feeling creative. Your curls deserve extensions that actually understand the assignment.
