Shipment of the hair was quick and drama free. I ordered 4 packs, but you might be able to get away with 3 if you don't want too much volume. This hair has a beautiful, curly texture. Not as kinky as I thought from internet research. It was really difficult to separate and is hard to keep in neat, defined curls. I ended up following Lia Lavon's tip of soaking the hair in mousse for a few minutes before separating into clusters. I separated the clusters into smaller pieces too, which required time, scissors and a lot of patience. Even with the frizz, I'm happy with the final look. I'll definitely want to try this hair again in the future and would absolutely order from Textured Tech if they have it in stock.
