Curly Hair Extensions Guide
Texture #1: Raw Burma Curly
The Curl Pattern: 3B/3C soft coils
Origin: Myanmar (Burma)
Available Lengths: 12" to 40"
Recommended Bundles:
- 12"–18" = 3 bundles
- 20"–24" = 4 bundles
- 26"+ = 5+ bundles
Who Should Wear It?
Burma Curly is perfect for the Yummy Girl who wants versatility without sacrificing definition. This hair gives you tight, springy curls with tons of volume that still feel soft and pillow-like to the touch. You can straighten it for a sleek look and it will revert right back to curls with a little water and conditioner.
Why It’s a Favorite:
- Styling Freedom: Wear it curly, straight, or wand curled
- Soft Texture: Feels incredibly natural
- Defined, Juicy Curls: Ready to serve glam
Maintenance Level: Medium
You’ll need to refresh the curls every 1–2 days with a water + conditioner mix and use a Denman brush to keep them defined. It’s easy to maintain with the right routine—and worth every minute.
Best Installation Options:
Texture #2: Raw Cambodian Curly Wave
The Curl Pattern: Loose curls with a wave base
Origin: Cambodia
Available Lengths: 12" to 30"
Recommended Bundles:

- 26"+ = 5 bundles or more
Who Should Wear It?
If you’re looking for the perfect vacation look or a carefree everyday curl that doesn’t need as much fuss, Curly Wave is for you. The looser curl pattern makes it easier to manage and style on the go. Perfect for beginners, moms, and anyone who wants to “set it and forget it.”
Celebrity Inspiration:
This is the perfect match for Lori Harvey’s tropical vacation curls or Gabrielle Union’s natural glam moments.
Why You’ll Love It:
- Beachy + Soft: The ideal summer or vacation look
- Easy to Detangle: Less maintenance than tighter textures
- Wash & Go Friendly: Refresh with water + mousse or light conditioner
Maintenance Level: Low to Medium
Just wet the hair, scrunch, and go. Use a diffuser (like our KOSA Blow Dryer) to maintain volume. This is one of the most low-maintenance curly hair extensions for summer.

Who Should Wear It?
For the bold Yummy Girl who lives for volume. These curls are defined but fluffy—perfect for glam photoshoots, events, or when you want to be the center of attention. Lush Curly is also great for layered cuts, so the curls fall and frame the face beautifully.
