Short answer: Curly, wavy and coily hair can wear extensions that blend perfectly when the extension texture matches your natural pattern. Light wefts, careful placement and a moisture-focused routine keep them comfortable and natural on wash-and-go days and straightened days.

| Your hair | Extension match |
|---|---|
| Wavy | Loose wave or body wave |
| Curly | Curl pattern matched to yours |
