Hair texture is one of the most important things to get right when you choose hair extensions. We recommend choosing the same texture as your own hair. When the texture doesn't match, the transition becomes visible. Here's a complete guide to choosing the right texture for your hair type.
Why texture matters so much
Texture determines how the hair falls, how it moves and how it blends with your own hair. When the texture matches, the extensions are hard to tell apart from your natural hair.
Straight hair
Straight hair suits you if you want an elegant, soft fall with a sleek, minimalist feel.
- Easy to style
- Suits clean, polished looks
Wavy hair
Wavy is one of the most popular textures and a favourite if you want naturally lively hair with a bit of volume.
- More volume than straight hair
- Easy to style both straight and wavy
Curly hair
Curly hair gives a lively, full result. It suits you if you want a more dramatic look.
- Lots of volume
- Curls that hold their shape for a long time
Deep Wave
Deep Wave gives maximum structure and volume and is ideal for textured hair types.
- Suits you if your hair is naturally curly or tightly curled
- You need less hair thanks to the volume
How to match the texture to your own hair
The key is to start from how your own hair looks when it's dry, and choose a texture that's as close to it as possible. Think about your everyday routine too, and how much time you want to spend on moisture and definition – straight hair needs the least care, while curly and Deep Wave need more styling.
When the hair falls naturally without sharp transitions, styling feels easy and the result looks good in every light, you know you've chosen the right texture.
