When you shell out for high-quality raw hair bundles, you expect perfection. But let’s be real: because raw hair is literally just human hair in its purest form, it behaves exactly like the hair growing from your scalp. It’s not a synthetic plastic that stays frozen in time; it’s organic, which means a little shedding and tangling is part of the deal.
The Lowdown on Shedding
A few strands here and there in your comb are totally normal—even your natural hair sheds about 100 strands a day! However, heavy shedding usually happens if you’ve cut the wefts during a sew-in without sealing the ends. To keep your bundles thick, avoid stitching through the tracks and always use a weft sealer.
Why Does It Tangle?
Since raw hair has its cuticles intact and aligned, it’s much less likely to mat up than processed hair. That said, if the hair gets thirsty or bogged down by too much product, it’s going to get grumpy and knot up, especially at the nape of your neck.
The Game Plan
To keep things silky, treat your bundles like a luxury spa guest. Use sulfate-free moisture, avoid heavy oils that cause "product gunk," and always sleep in a silk bonnet. Treat it with respect, and it’ll stay gorgeous for years.
