The Hook
Okay, so remember that time I spent THREE HOURS trying to blend my natural curls with a closure that had the wrong curl pattern? Girl, the edges were popping, the texture was off, and I looked like I had two different heads of hair fighting for dominance. That disaster is exactly why these Raw Indian Curly closures hit different. This hair literally saved my sanity.

What Makes This Special
Not gonna lie, when I first got my hands on Raw Indian hair, I was skeptical. Everyone talks about it like it's the best thing ever, but I've been disappointed before. Then I actually installed this closure and... the curls. THE CURLS. They spring back after every wash like nobody's business. We're talking wash day after wash day, these curls maintain their pattern without me having to baby them.
Here's what really got me though. The transparent lace? Actually transparent. Like, I didn't have to tint it, bleach knots for hours, or do that whole foundation mixing dance we all know too well. Straight out the package, it melted into my scalp. And because this is temple hair (yes, actual temple hair from South East India), the quality is insane. Each strand is thick, healthy, and moves like it's still growing from someone's head.
The 4x4 size gives you that perfect coverage without being overwhelming. You can part it middle, side, or do that cute zigzag part that's been all over my feed lately. And since it's cuticle aligned, you're not dealing with that tangling nightmare that happens when the cuticles are going every which way.
The Real Details
Here's the thing about curly closures. Most of them look gorgeous for about two weeks, then turn into a matted mess that requires constant detangling. This Raw Indian Curly? Different story. The machine double stitch wefts mean nothing's shedding when you're manipulating those curls. And honestly, the curl pattern stays consistent whether you get the 12" or the 18" length.
One thing I discovered after my third install with this closure... you can actually lighten it to #613 if you're feeling adventurous. Now, I haven't done it myself (I'm too scared to mess with perfection), but I've seen other girls do it and the hair takes color beautifully without losing that bounce. Just make sure you deep condition religiously if you go that route.
Installation tip from experience: when you're sewing this down, leave a tiny bit of space at the front for your baby hairs to blend through. Trust me on this. That little detail makes the difference between "nice closure" and "wait, is that your real hair?"
Bottom Line
Girl, if you've been struggling to find a curly closure that actually matches your texture and doesn't require a chemistry degree to maintain, this is it. Quality temple hair, transparent lace that actually works, and curls that bounce back wash after wash. Your curl pattern prayers have been answered.
