We have two types of kinky, Kinky 3B-3C and Tight Kinky 3C-4A.
This is a looser version of our Kinky curl and the most popular! It has a medium-low luster and medium coarse texture. You can tease this to create more texture and volume but it’s easier to manage than our Tight Kinky 3C-4A. We strongly recommend this type for someone that has never worn kinky curly hair before or need a lower maintenance kinky curly hair.
It PERFECTLY mimics natural 3b-3b African American hair texture! The curls are Luscious Tight Ringlet Curls. It has a Low Luster with Medium-Coarse texture so it can easily blend with 4a to 4b natural hair texture with slight manipulation!
Afro Tight Kinky Hair Weave 3C-4A:
The Afro Tight Kinky Hair Weave 3C-4A has a tighter curl with a low luster and coarse texture. A lower luster with coarse texture equates to a higher tendency to look frizzier. Looking frizzy is the very best characteristics of this hair. It will not be Tight Kinky without the frizzy! This is for avid kinky wearers, for those who love full and fabulous. Do not buy this hair and expect to tame it.
The Tight Kinky Curly textures are Luscious Super Tight Corkscrews zigzagging Coils. It has s Super Low Luster with Coarse texture so can easily blend with 4b to 4c natural hair texture with slight manipulation!

Kinky Curly Weave Frequently Asked Questions – Texture Change
Yes, you can straighten the hair but keep in mind that continuous straightening of the curls will make them a lot looser.
They are real hair so applying too much heat to them can definitely damage the cuticle, just like it damages your real hair. The curls will become looser curls in time.
Heat-free styling like Flexi rod, two strand twist or bread out will be fine and have no effect on the curls. Co-washing will do the trick to get it curly again.
The Kinky 3B-3C™ will perfectly blend better with your leave out with minimal to no manipulation. On the other hand, if your natural hair is more of a 4b to 4c which is natural hair with no curl, the Kinky 3B-3C™ hair will not blend with your natural hair so as a protective style you can purchase our Kinky 3B-3C™ Frontal Closure which perfectly matches the weft and great way to achieve a full weave that looks very natural! The closure is a great protective style regime as well.
The Tight-Kinky 3C-4A™ will perfectly blend with your leave out with minimal manipulation. On the other hand, if your natural hair is more of a 4c which natural hair with no curl is, the Tight-Kinky 3C-4A™ hair will blend but will require a blending trick with your natural hair so as a protective style you can purchase our Tight-Kinky 3C-4A™ Frontal Closure which perfectly matches the weft and great way to achieve a full weave that looks very natural!

Kinky Curly Weave Frequently Asked Questions – Length Options
Unfortunately, we do not offer the Tight-Kinky 3C-4A™ texture in longer lengths than 20” Because it will require much more maintenance routine. If you prefer longer lengths, we will suggest buying the Kinky 3B-3C™ which runs up to 26″
It is common to blend the two textures which will offer you more manageability. You will be required to buy at least two pouches and alternate the tracks. You can alternate the tracks halfway towards the top for a much better blending which will even create a more natural look. Also, note to put the Kinky 3B-3C™ textures as the first 3 tracks in the back of your head and Tight-Kinky 3C-4A™ as the last two tracks which will blend better with your natural hair leave out better.

No, we also offer the Colored Hair Weave Extensions treated options under our GOLDEN COLLECTION. The Natural Black is more like a light version of #1B/Darkest of #2.
Kinky Curly Weave Frequently Asked Questions – Coloring
Though you can color the Natural Black, we will advise doing so with the help of a professional stylist. Please do not go more than 2 to 3 shades lighter to maintain the curl pattern.
Keep in mind that coloring (lifting color) the hair involves applying chemical which will alter the hair cuticle and will affect the integrity of the hair.
This is real hair so applying strong chemicals will damage it, just like it damages your real hair.
Lastly, make sure your stylist performs a strand test. (He/ She should know this already)

Kinky Curly Weave Frequently Asked Questions – Special Order
Unfortunately, we do not offer that option, but you can “back-order” some colors. Back-Order will allow customers to order an existing color or length option that is not readily available.
If an item is available for “Back-Order” you will see “available on backorder” on add to cart instead of “in stock”
We do not offer services to color the hair, please contact a professional stylist. You are welcome to color it with the help of a professional stylist. Please note we will advise coloring the hair not lighter than 2 shades for Natural Black. For already color treated ones, we will recommend ONLY “deposit color” going darker than the original color. We will strongly suggest doing a strand test also.
Kinky Curly Weave Frequently Asked Questions – Swimming
Yes, but please note that this is real hair so you must take the same precautions taken for your natural hair.
Saltwater or chlorine will not damage the hair but you must make sure to braid up your hair prior to swimming and completely clarify the hair with a good clarifying shampoo and warm water right afterward.
The best way will be to not swim with the hair in the loose state, we will recommend braiding it or twisting it prior to swimming.
Kinky Curly Weave Frequently Asked Questions – Unboxing
The first thing you must do is to review the hair.
ALL our hair is hand washed so depending on the washing technique and the fact that some are old batches and have been sitting in the pouch for a longer period, they will look rough.
This is VERY TEMPORARY. It is hard to see the beauty of the hair out of the pouch! We will recommend you co-wash some portion of the hair (actual hair minus the black label and weft area) this way you can see the beautiful curl pattern. For longer lengths, you might need to induce the curls by scrunching the hair!
Please note that you can still return the hair for an exchange after co-washing (conditioner wash) if the black label and gold tag around it were not tampered with! Our hair comes with our monogram gold sticker to maintain the integrity and guarantee the authenticity of our hair, once this label is removed, it is 100% void for any exchange. Please do not tamper with the product if you have concerns or reservations as we cannot restock a tampered item back.
If you are happy with the texture, you can then remove the black label and do a proper conditioner wash on the hair. Air dry the hair for the popping curls?
The Tight-Kinky 3C-4A™ texture especially requires a lot of care. We will advice buying a shorter length for this type of hair unless you are very familiar with the Tight-Kinky 3C-4A™ texture and truly knows how to care for it! We will suggest buying our weft sealant and applying it at least twice to further enforce the weft.
