Okay, so let me tell you about the time I spent six hours braiding my client's hair with synthetic fiber, only to have her come back two weeks later looking like she wrestled a lint roller. That's when I learned not all braiding hair is created equal. These Raw Vietnamese Deep Wave bundles? Completely different story. The texture holds its pattern through multiple washes, and girl, the way it blends with natural hair is honestly ridiculous.

What Makes This Special
Not gonna lie, when I first felt this hair, I understood why people pay premium prices for raw Vietnamese bundles. The deep wave pattern isn't some factory-pressed situation that falls out after the first wash. This is the hair's actual texture, which means it bounces back every single time you wet it.
Here's what really sets this apart though. You get to choose between Standard and Double Drawn options, which honestly nobody explains properly. Standard gives you that natural taper at the ends (like how real hair actually grows), while Double Drawn is thick from root to tip. Most of my clients doing goddess braids or boho styles go for Standard because it looks more realistic. But if you want that full, dramatic look for feed-in braids? Double Drawn all day.
The fact that this can lift to #613 blonde without turning into straw is wild. In the salon, we used to charge extra just for the color matching service because finding braiding hair that could handle bleaching was nearly impossible. This takes color like it was meant for it. September's the perfect time to try those honey blonde highlights everyone's been asking for.
The Real Details
Here's the thing about raw hair versus processed hair for braiding. Raw hair like this doesn't have that synthetic shine that screams "this isn't mine." It starts out feeling a bit coarse (which is normal), but after that first co-wash? Soft as butter. The deep waves actually get more defined with each wash instead of loosening up.
Since this comes in 100-gram bundles, you're looking at about 3-4 bundles for a full head of medium-sized braids. For thicker braids or if you just want a few accent pieces, 2 bundles work perfectly. Pro tip: Always order an extra bundle. Nothing worse than running out of hair at 11 PM with half a head done.
Bottom Line
Girl, if you're investing time into braiding your hair (because we both know it's a whole day situation), use hair that's worth the effort. This Raw Vietnamese Deep Wave gives you texture that lasts, color options if you want them, and that natural movement that makes people ask who did your hair. Whether you choose Standard or Double Drawn, you're getting quality that survives multiple installs. September's here, protective style season is calling, and this hair answers perfectly.
