Your Texture Hack Guide
Why Choosing the Right Texture Matters
Your hair texture sets the tone for your entire look. From how the extensions blend with your natural hair to how they respond to styling tools and climate—texture plays a big role in how long your install lasts and how it makes you feel.
At Yummy Extensions, we offer 100% raw human hair in a variety of textures sourced from regions like Cambodia, Laos, and Myanmar (Burma). All of our bundles are thick from root to tip, ethically sourced, and crafted for longevity. But the feel, luster, wave pattern, and styling potential can vary—so let’s dive into the comparisons.
Raw Cambodian Natural Wave vs. Raw LAO Wavy
Left: Raw Lao Wavy Right: Raw Cambodian Natural Wave
- Origin: Cambodia
- Luster: Medium to low
- Strands: Thick and coarse
- Pattern: Soft wave
- Vibe: Natural, minimal styling
If you’re a fan of effortless glam, the Cambodian Natural Wave gives that “I woke up like this” energy. With thicker hair strands and a more subdued wave, it’s ideal for everyday wear and blends beautifully with pressed-out Type 3 and 4 textures.
- Origin: Laos
- Luster: Medium to high
- Strands: Finer, silkier
- Pattern: Soft, luxurious wave
- Vibe: Glamorous and elegant
LAO Wavy is the it-girl texture for special events or when you want to turn heads. The silkier strands catch the light beautifully, giving you a more polished, refined look. It’s great for wand curls, updos, or sleek layered installs.
Tip: Want something versatile you can curl or flat iron? Both Cambodian Natural Wave and LAO Wavy can be heat styled and revert after washing—but LAO Wavy is your go-to for high shine and bounce, while Cambodian Natural Wave is your low-maintenance staple.
Raw Burma Curly vs. Raw Lao Lush Curly
Left: Raw Burma Curly Right: Raw LAO Lush Curly
- Origin: Myanmar (Burma)
- Luster: Medium
- Strands: Soft, diverse in pattern
- Curl Pattern: 3B–3C, ranging from deep wave to curl
- Vibe: Natural, voluminous, playful
Our Burma Curly is beloved for its juicy, natural ringlets that mimic textured hair with volume and movement. It’s perfect for everyday wear and blends beautifully with natural leave-out. It’s also highly versatile—you can wear it air-dried or silk-pressed.
- Origin: Laos
- Luster: Medium
- Strands: Defined, thick from root to tip
- Curl Pattern: Uniform curls, 3B–3C
- Vibe: Full glam, red-carpet ready
If you’re looking for curls that are super defined, consistent, and photo-ready, LAO Lush Curly is your go-to. These curls hold their shape all day, are easy to refresh, and offer the ideal balance of volume and structure.
Tip: Want wand curls? Burma Curly silk-presses like a dream for glam styling. Want a uniform, sculpted curly look? LAO Lush Curly is your crown jewel.
Raw Cambodian Curly Wave vs. Raw Burma Curly
Left: Raw Burma Curly Right: Raw Cambodian Curly Wave
- Origin: Cambodia
- Luster: Medium to low
- Strands: Thick and full
- Curl Pattern: Deep waves at the root, tighter curls at the ends
- Vibe: Volume, body, and bounce
Cambodian Curly Wave gives you the best of both worlds—a wave at the top and bouncy curls at the bottom. It's great for full installs and offers a lot of natural movement. If you’re someone who loves big hair and full looks, this texture delivers.
(See above for full details)
Tip: Cambodian Curly Wave offers more volume with thicker strands and a wave-to-curl transformation. Burma Curly gives you more curl variety and slightly more lightweight feel.
Raw Cambodian Wavy Elegance vs. Raw SEA Wavy Opulence
Left: Raw Cambodian Wavy Elegance Right: Raw SEA Wavy Opulence
- Origin: Cambodia
- Luster: Medium to low
- Strands: Thick and coarse
- Pattern: Tight wave pattern
- Vibe: Natural glam with lasting body
Cambodian Wavy Elegance has a defined wave and luxurious body that holds up well in heat and humidity. It’s an amazing choice for the summer months, especially if you want to keep your hair looking fresh and voluminous.
- Origin: Southeast Asia
- Luster: Medium-high
- Strands: Fine and soft
- Pattern: Defined, soft waves
- Vibe: Soft, feminine, lightweight
If you want something softer and more flowy, SEA Wavy Opulence gives you that romantic wave look that’s ideal for vacations, weddings, and beach trips.
Tip: Both press out beautifully. Cambodian Wavy Elegance is better for blending with coarser textures, while SEA Wavy Opulence is ideal for finer hair or silkier installs.
Pro Tip: Mix & Match Similar Textures to Complete Your Look
The Yummy Extensions Semi-Annual Sale is our biggest sale of the season, which means our most loved textures and popular lengths tend to sell out fast. But don’t worry—if the exact bundles you need are unavailable, you can still build a flawless install by mixing and matching similar textures.
Our textures are all 100% raw human hair, so they’re versatile enough to blend seamlessly with one another—especially when styled. Here's how to make it work:
Combine Textures from the Same Category
- Wavy Blends: If LAO Wavy in 22” is sold out, try combining it with AnJelic Wavy. These textures have similar wave patterns and blend beautifully when layered and curled.
- Curly Mixes: Can’t find your length in Burma Curly? Pair it with Cambodian Curly Wave or LAO Lush Curly. All offer gorgeous curls that fall within the 3B–3C range, and with a little water and mousse, your curls will blend effortlessly.
Style to Match
Once installed, you can easily unify mixed textures by:
- Wanding or curling all bundles into uniform curls
- Flat ironing everything bone straight
- Scrunching curly textures with water + conditioner mix to achieve cohesive ringlets and finish with a Kosa diffuser
Keep the Texture Family in Mind
Stick with textures that come from similar regions or with similar luster levels. For example, Cambodian textures tend to have medium to low luster and thicker strands, while LAO and SEA Wavy textures lean silkier with higher luster. This helps maintain a consistent look.
This smart approach allows you to still take full advantage of the unbeatable deals—while building a head-turning look that’s completely your own.
Remember: Shopping during a big sale means acting fast and getting creative. If your top pick is sold out, don’t panic—just refer to this guide and create a custom blend of beautiful, raw hair textures that work just as well.
