This guide applies to weft extensions only and does not apply to wigs.
The number of bundles needed depends on your desired length, fullness, and install style. For the most natural, full result, we recommend the following:
12"–14": 2 or more bundles
16"–18": 3 or more bundles
20"–24": 4 or more bundles
26" and longer: 5–6 or more bundles
Please note: YUMMY extensions are measured when pulled straight. To measure your wefts properly, place the measuring tape below the weft.
For clip-ins, we recommend one full set for length and two full sets for added volume.

Expert Tips:
Because this is raw hair, wave pattern and color tone may vary slightly from bundle to bundle. For the most consistent result, we recommend purchasing your complete set in one transaction and adding order notes at checkout. Order notes are not guaranteed; however, our fulfillment processors will do their very best to accommodate your request(s). Please note that the images pictured are heat-styled. This hair comes in a very soft wave as it is natural human hair. The price advertised is for one bundle only. This is not a wig or a unit.
Before your order ships, every YUMMY bundle is inspected at our Texas facility for texture, weight, weft quality, fullness, and overall finish. This ensures your hair meets our standard for natural movement, lasting softness, and a beautiful install from the first wear.
Once approved, each bundle is sealed in our signature satin packaging and prepared for delivery.
Every YUMMY order is backed by our quality promise. Because hair extensions are hygiene products, all sales are final. However, unused and unaltered items may be eligible for store credit within 7 days of delivery.
If you believe there is a product concern, contact our Customer Care team within 7 calendar days of receiving your order so we can review it fairly.
Please inspect your order before washing, coloring, cutting, installing, or booking a hair appointment, as altered items are not eligible for return or resolution.
Raw hair extensions require a consistent care routine to maintain softness, movement, and longevity. For wavy textures, we recommend regular co-washing, gentle detangling, minimal product buildup, and satin protection at night.
Before installation, co-wash and inspect your bundles while the zip ties are still intact. Always use a heat protectant when styling, and avoid excessive heat to help preserve the natural wave pattern.
Most orders ship within 1–3 business days. During major sales or promotional periods, processing may take longer due to increased order volume.
For your protection, orders may require signature confirmation at delivery. Once your order ships, you will receive tracking details by email.
We recommend placing your order before booking a hair appointment to allow enough time for processing, shipping, and delivery.
