Okay, so remember when I spent THREE HOURS trying to pluck my first closure and it still looked like a doll hairline? Girl, that nightmare is why I'm literally obsessed with this Raw Indian Wavy 5x5 closure. The hairline comes pre-plucked (but not overdone), the wave pattern is this gorgeous natural texture that actually looks like it grew from your scalp, and the 5x5 size? Perfect for side parts, middle parts, whatever mood you're in.

What Makes This Special
Not gonna lie, when I first started working with closures back in cosmetology school, we practiced on these stiff synthetic pieces that looked...suspicious. This Raw Indian hair though? Completely different story. The waves have this natural bounce that synthetic could never achieve. You know how some closures have that uniform pattern that screams "this is fake"? This one varies just like real hair does.
Here's what really sold me: the transparent lace. I've matched it on clients from fair to deep skin tones and it literally disappears with just a little foundation or powder. No more buying multiple shades hoping one works. And since it's 5x5 instead of 4x4, you get that extra inch of parting space. Trust me, that makes such a difference when you want to switch up your style.
The fact that it's temple hair from India means these strands are strong. Like, this is hair that can handle color if you want to go lighter (it lifts to 613 blonde beautifully), but honestly? The natural color is stunning. It's this rich, deep tone that catches light gorgeously.
The Real Details
Here's the thing about raw hair closures: each one is slightly different because it's literally someone's natural hair pattern. Some might be a looser wave, some tighter. That's not a flaw, that's what makes it blend so naturally with your own texture. I always tell my clients to order their closure when they order bundles so everything comes from the same batch for the best match.
Installation wise, you're looking at about 45 minutes if you know what you're doing, maybe an hour and a half if you're new to this. The 5x5 gives you room to customize without going overboard on the plucking. My trick? Start with small sections and work in layers. You can always pluck more, but you can't add hair back (learned that one the hard way).
For maintenance, treat it like your own hair. Co-wash it, deep condition weekly if you're wearing it daily, and please use heat protectant when styling.
Girl, Just Trust Me
If you've been scared to try closures because of that wiggy look, this is your sign to go for it. Quality raw Indian hair, transparent lace that works for everyone, and that 5x5 size that gives you actual styling options. Whether you're making a wig or doing a sew-in, this closure is going to give you that "is that all her hair?" reaction we're all after. Your install is about to look expensive without the salon price tag.
