This hair was easy to manage. You can dye it, however I wish it could get lighter. That's the lightest dye color I can get. Also, you have to comb the section you want to connect a little bit to get good length. But over all it's really good.I read so many good reviews i went ahead and purchased but for my "hair ladies" this is a beauty supply grade. It did have a slight ordor but not loud at all. Before I install any type of "virgin" hair in my head I wash it. There wasnt a lot of shedding and even after washing, the hair kept its original cure pattern which is very unusual for this type of curl! So thats a plus if u plan on wearing this style of curl. Its is dark brown n mine had auburn strings. I ordered 7 bundles in total. The 3 pack of 18, 16, 14 - the sizes were labeled wrong I thought because the 16 (out of the package) looked longer. However after washing, I received two packs of 16 n a 14 inch. In the second package fulfilled by the company, all the lengths were the correct lengths and labeled correctly. The hair was much more soft also. I have a big head and I have a very full look. I was able to put the 18, (2)16, and 1/3 of 14 inch. So for smaller heads or shorter looks, one package will be enough. I really enjoy the look for the money! Also in every package, there is a gift! In one i received a pair of eyelashes and the second i received a head band. Its like a box of cracker jacks!!! lolShipping was really fast, ordered Friday got it Sunday. Hair was really stiff & hard. Washed a couple times it loosen ups. Hair dyed easily. Now what I really hate about this hair is the shedding, I've had these for almost 6 months and they are still shedding I'm really thinking about taking these out, I really don't like the sheddingReceived very quickly. Love them!I ordered .6 but received .8 big difference from previous order.When I first received the hair it was soft, silky, and I could run my fingers right through it. After installing it it was still the same great texture. A week passes and the hair started to matte in the back and get tangled very quickly and easily. I wash it every week, put in the time to comb through it, and wrap it up at night, but by morning time it will look like I didn’t do anything to it. I recommend this hair if you want something temporary, about 3 weeks. It took a lot of time and energy to maintain it, when I did not have much of either to do.A bit itchy but moisturizer helps, look and feel natural works great to make your hair look neat and uniform.It is hard to stay with some hair typesWhat this seller did well was package and present the hair nicely. It came in a waterproof zip top bag with a card inside thanking me for the purchase and supporting the business. They also gifted a tail comb and crochet hook specifically for loc creation/maintenance. A+I was excited to get and use this item because it claims to be human afro hair. I don't know what kind of hair this is but it's not like any afro hair I've EVER felt in my entire life of 53 years touching my own hair and that of my family and friends. When I took it out of the packaging it was shedding all over the floor, I'm grateful I opened it in the bathroom and not on a carpeted area. I thought when I washed and conditioned it it would soften up and stop shedding, I was wrong.This hair is so crunchy and scratchy, it made me itch when it touched my skin. If I had not washed and installed a portion of this before deciding to remove it, I would have returned it. I have purchased synthetic hair Loc's that feel more "natural" than this stuff. DO NOT WASTE your MONEY. If you decide to buy this hair anyway, at least don't wash it thinking it will soften. Return it right away.
