The Real Deal on Raw Indian Curly
Okay, so remember when I was cutting the lace off my first closure and literally ripped a hole right through it? Yeah, not my finest moment. But here's the thing... that disaster taught me exactly what to look for in quality closures. And girl, this Raw Indian Curly 5x5? It's everything I wish I'd started with.

What Makes This Closure Different
Not gonna lie, when I first got my hands on raw Indian curly hair, I was like "THIS is what everyone's been talking about." The curls are actually... curly. Like, they bounce back after you stretch them, they don't go flat after one wash, and they actually look like natural curls, not that crimped-looking synthetic mess we've all accidentally bought at 2am.
The 5x5 transparent lace gives you so much room to work with. I used to struggle with 4x4 closures because I'd want to change my part and boom, you'd see tracks. With this extra inch? You can do a deep side part, switch to middle, even do that zigzag part thing if you're feeling creative. And the transparent lace? Girl, it blends with literally every skin tone. No more buying "medium brown" and praying it matches.
Here's what really sold me though. This hair takes color beautifully. You can actually lift it to blonde (the specs say #613 and they're not lying). I watched my stylist take a similar closure from natural black to honey blonde and it didn't turn to straw. That's when you know you've got quality virgin hair.
The Technical Stuff You Actually Need to Know
Real talk, the machine double stitch wefts mean this closure can handle some wear and tear. I've had single-stitch closures that started shedding after two installs. These double-stitched ones? They hold up through multiple washes, reinstalls, the works.
The Remy cuticle alignment is honestly what makes the difference between hair that tangles every five minutes and hair that you can actually live in. All the cuticles run in the same direction, so you're not fighting matting at the nape of your neck every morning.
You get lengths from 14" to 22", which honestly covers everything from a natural bob look to those flowing shoulder-length curls. Pro tip: if you're matching to bundles, go with the same length or one size shorter for your closure. Keeps everything looking natural and balanced.
Girl, Just Try It
If you've been burned by closures that look wiggy, don't hold their curl, or have lace so thick you could use it as a placemat... this is your sign to try raw Indian curly. Quality virgin hair from temple sources, transparent lace that actually disappears, and curls that bounce back wash after wash. Your install deserves this level of quality.
