SL Raw Burmese Soft Kinky Curly Hair features soft, defined curls that blend beautifully with natural hair textures ranging from 3B–3C. Made from ethically sourced 100% human hair, these machine-weft bundles provide natural fullness, long-lasting wear, and versatile styling for sew-in installations.

Sourced from Southeast Asia, this texture offers the look and feel of naturally curly hair with approximately 13% frizz. Like natural hair, it responds to washing, styling, and humidity while maintaining its authentic curl pattern. A lightweight styling product can be used to enhance definition and reduce frizz as desired.

The bundles come in a natural black color similar to #1B. Because each bundle is naturally sourced, slight variations in color and curl pattern may occur. Each bundle is securely machine wefted for a flat, comfortable installation that adds volume without unnecessary bulk.

Wear the curls in their natural state or diffuse for additional volume and definition. The hair can also be professionally colored and heat styled up to 400°F when desired.

Each bundle weighs approximately 100 grams. For most full sew-in installations, we recommend 2 bundles, though additional bundles may be preferred for longer lengths or extra fullness. With proper care, the hair can last up to 36 months.

Welcome to your new hair care routine! Whether you're a seasoned pro or new to hair extensions, this guide will help you maintain the beauty and longevity of your SL Raw premium human hair extensions. Follow these steps to ensure your extensions look stunning and last as long as possible.

Before Installation Care

Proper preparation is key to flawless installation.

1. Wash & Condition

Begin by washing and conditioning your hair extensions using a hydrating shampoo (e.g., Kera Care Hydrating Shampoo) and a moisture-rich conditioner (e.g., Kera Care Hydrating Detangling Conditioner). This ensures they are clean and ready for styling.

2. Air Dry

Air drying is the gentlest method. Hang your extensions on a hanger and allow them to dry naturally. Avoid using blow dryers or other heat sources to prevent damage or loss of luster.

3. Avoid Cutting the Wefts

Cutting the wefts can lead to shedding. If adjustments are necessary during installation, tell the stylist to try to fold the wefts instead.

Nightly Routine for Maintenance

Protect your investment while you sleep.

1. Use a Satin Bonnet or Silk Scarf

Protect your hair from friction by using an SL Raw No-Slip Satin Bonnet or a silk scarf. These accessories help maintain the health and shine of your extensions and reduce frizz.

2. Consider Satin Pillowcases

While not required, satin pillowcases can further reduce friction and prevent tangles.

3. Protective Styling

For curly or wavy hair, consider twisting, braiding, pin curling, or using flexi rods. For straight hair, wrap it at night to preserve your sleek style.

Bi-Weekly Maintenance for Wavy/Straight Hair

Consistency is crucial for maintaining softness and manageability.

1. Shampoo & Condition

Use a hydrating shampoo like Design Essentials Almond & Avocado Shampoo every two weeks. Follow with a leave-in conditioner such as Jane Carter Solution Revitalizing Leave-In Conditioner.

2. Deep Condition

Treat your extensions to a deep conditioning session once a month with a product like DevaCurl Melt Into Moisture Matcha Butter Conditioning Mask. This helps maintain a smooth, luscious texture. always rinse with cool water.

3. Minimal Styling Products

Keep styling products to a minimum to avoid weighing down the hair. When using heat tools, always apply a thermal heat protectant like Chi-silk Thermal Protectant.

Regular Salon Visits

Professional care can make a world of difference.

1. Monthly Cleansing

Visit your salon regularly to have your hair and extensions cleansed and dried properly. This is especially important for installations like sew-ins and microlinks. Use a clarifying shampoo followed by thorough drying under a hooded dryer.

2. Professional Advice

Your stylist can provide personalized tips and recommendations based on your specific hair type and installation method.

Handling and Styling Advice

Gentle handling ensures longer-lasting extensions.

1. Shampoo in a Downward Position

Always shampoo your extensions in a downward motion. This helps prevent tangling and matting.

2. Minimal Product Use

Avoid applying too many styling products, as they can weigh down the hair and reduce its natural movement.

3. Thermal Protection

Use a dime-sized amount of thermal heat protectant before blow-drying or flat ironing to maintain the integrity of your extensions.

Care for Textured Hair

Special techniques for curly and coarser textures.

1. Air Dry

To avoid frizz, allow your textured hair to air dry or dry under a medium heat hood dryer. Seal with John Frieda Frizz Ease for a smooth finish.

2. Detangle When Wet

Use an SL Raw hair extension brush to detangle your hair while it’s wet. Combing dry hair can cause snagging and shedding.

3. Define Curls

For defined curls, apply curl-defining products like Paul Mitchell Foam Sculpt, Kinky Knot Today, or Jane Carter's Condition & Sculpt to wet hair. Mix with a dab of oil to maintain softness.
