I'm looking for some small spiral curled soft human hair.  My client is mixed race, she has beautiful hair but I can't seem to find anything like it x

amanda have you checked out the hair at hair-development.com ?

I seen some of the hair they have in a deep wave and some of the prebonded hair in a spiral curl. Would be nice to hear any reviews on their hair.

Has anyone used the deep wave before, can you tell me what sort of curl it is and is it curlier than the french refined? x

Amanda- Would you be posting the photos of you client's hair on your website? (Fab work, btw!!) I am also mixed and so far haven't really found anything that would match my curls. It's like the deep wave(more of an s patern), but the curls aren't as skinny. If that makes sense.:)

I would say that deep wave is definitely more curly than french refined.

Deep wave is a tight curl, while french refined is just wavy.

Try hairpiece.com, their deep wave flash point hair.

Amm, how does this fibre feel?  Is is really course?  Would you put it into you hair? (if you had lots of curls??)

I too am looking for some more curl.  I have been using indian hair, and it has a nice wave, but I am looking to go curlier for the winter.  I just gave myself a perm a couple of weeks ago, and I am looking for some new exten. hair.

Let me tell you, O/T, giving myself a perm was wayyyyyyyy harder then putting in extentions!!!  It took me almost 2 hours to roll the hair.  Talk about arm cramps!!!  After I was done perming, I then put my extension back in, boy was I ready for a drink after that whole day!!!!  Non stop hair day from 9am-5:20 pm.

gsmilie, I have no idea. I've never tried that hair before but I read a
decent recommend on it from a person or two. I don't think I'd install
it so I'm going to make clip ins of it and see how it goes. I have
someone who wears her shouldler length hair kinda big so I think this
looks like a nice choice. Can't beat the price, too.

Ugh. Perms. I knew them well in the 80's. It was the only way I could
give my fine hair some volume.

I've had some really nice Indian remy with nice curl to it. If you're
looking to dye up to a nice medium brown with some lighter
highlights, Indian remy is always a great choice.

Metal - Is the Deep Wave more like a telephone wire curl or just a tighter wave than the french refined.  Have you seen the brazilian at all'?

Hi Amanda!

To get that texture you are going to have to look for an "organic" blend of human and yak hair---the label may say 100% human but it will likely be blended with animal (it has to be to hold that spiral shape) but you can still treat it like human hair (it will be coarse though)---try Bohyme.com's Brazilian Wave texture.

I hope this helps!

Because its mostly urban legend.  Animal hair is more expensive then human, so it makes no sense.  For example a horsetail is a lot harder to come by in china then a head of hair, so why bother to mix and blend it, when all you have to do is texturize the hair?
