Wavy hair has a unique texture that makes it stand out. However, some clients may not be satisfied with the length of their hair even if it has beautiful curls. Curls tend to spring up, making it hard for its owners to grow their hair to the desired length. This is where wavy hair extensions come in handy. They can help achieve the desired look for the hairstyle. These extensions come in different textures, ranging from curly hair to hair with a light wave.
Curly hair extensions are available in two main categories: synthetic and natural. We recommend using natural hair since artificial strands are too heavy, visually different from natural curls, and cannot be dried with a hairdryer or straightened with an iron. They can also weaken hair roots and stimulate hair loss due to their weight.
At I Love Slavic Hair, we recommend using natural human hair for extensions. It offers a more comfortable wearing experience, lasts longer, and generally enhances the overall appearance of the hairstyle.
Please make yourself comfortable: it will be interesting!
Types of Wavy Hair Extensions
Only 11% of people in the world have curly hair, which is why curly hair bundles are less common than straight hair bundles.
Finding a supplier who sells high-quality natural wavy hair for extensions can be challenging.
- Wavy extensions are typically sourced from Brazil, Uzbekistan, and a few Asian countries.
If you have a medium-thick hair texture, then Uzbek hair might be a perfect match for you. However, it's important to note that most hair products from Asia in this category are permed hair, which means they have been artificially curled. On our website, we offer such hair under the European hair category.
We advise against purchasing hair from Asian and Brazilian sources, or any source, without first verifying the processing method used. It's crucial that the raw materials are not treated with harsh chemicals that can damage the hair cuticles, ultimately compromising the quality of the hair.
Therefore, all of the products available in our online store undergo gentle processing, ensuring that your hair extensions will last as long as possible. - If you have fine or thin hair and you are looking for high-quality hair extensions, we recommend using either Slavic hair, which is suitable for the softest and thinnest curls, or Russian hair, which is designed for slightly thicker hair. Here you can find hair with a natural wave that is perfect for extensions.
It's important to note that such raw materials are more expensive than European hair because they are rare. Slavic hair, in particular, is collected from a single donor, which means that each bundle of virgin Slavic wavy hair is unique in terms of length, texture, and color (this type of hair is supplied undyed).
Hair Extensions with Natural Wave Pros
- Natural wave is maintained after washing the head
Regular washing does not loosen natural hair curls. - Look more natural
These curls look more natural, thanks to which the hairstyle generally looks more harmonious. - Various ways to style your hair
You can either straighten it or curl it using a curling iron, which can give your hair a completely different appearance.
However, it is not recommended to use this method on permed hair. It is better to opt for hair extensions with a natural wave as it provides more hairstyle choices. - Longer service life
Permed hair undergoes a chemical process that alters its original structure. Such processing can potentially reduce the service life of the hair; it may lose its attractive appearance more quickly and you may no longer be satisfied with the look of the curls. With natural waves, you do not have to worry about any of these issues.
Hair Extensions with Natural Wave Cons
- Require special care
It is important to take proper care of extensions, especially curly hair. Neglecting to follow the stylist's recommendations can lead to frizzy hair. - Hard to find
Naturally wavy hair is hard to find, and high-quality wavy hair extensions are even rarer.
However, if you're looking for curly bundles, I Love Slavic Hair can help you find exactly what you need. We take care of all the trouble of finding the right material so that you don't have to worry about anything. Trust us to provide you with the best quality hair extensions available on the market. - Price
Like any rare material, such hair is more expensive. However, if you care for your extensions correctly, all investments will pay off, and your styling will look flawless!
Hair Extensions with Artificial Wave Pros
- Greater choice
Unlike natural wavy hair extensions, permed Remy human hair are more widely marketed.
- A rich palette of colors
This category offers a lot of different shades, so you can easily find the right option.
- Price
The cost of such raw materials is lower than of the bundles with natural curls.
Hair Extensions with Artificial Wave Cons
- Hair may lose its waviness
Regular washing can wash off the compounds that were used to form the curls. Thus, over time, the hair will no longer look the same as it used to on the day of application. - No hairstyles allowed
It is not advisable to blow dry these strands with hot air, curl or straighten them, as it can affect the artificial curl. - Can look less natural
In some cases, an artificial wave is so obvious that everyone can tell it is not a natural curl. - Require even more special care
Ask a hair tech for advice on caring for permed hair to maintain the curls longer and extend the time of wearing such a hairstyle.

MATCH MEProper care for curly and wavy extensions
We have compiled the best recommendations for caring for wavy hair extensions. These maintenance tips are based on our personal experience and the experiences of the top hair techs we work with.
By following these tips for maintaining wavy hair extensions, you will enjoy your hairstyle for a longer time!
Washing and Drying Curly Hair Extensions
Follow the next recommendations:
- Brush your curls
Remember to brush your hair before washing to avoid tangles and knots.
- Wash your hair
To wash your hair properly, use lukewarm water. Apply shampoo twice, using a product that is suitable for your hair type. Be careful when massaging the shampoo into your hair, especially around areas of extension fixation, to avoid tangling or damaging them.
Don't forget to use a conditioner every time you wash your hair. Additionally, it's recommended to use a hair mask once a week or as advised by your hairstylist.
- Apply styling products
For defined curls, apply styling products such as leave-in conditioner to prevent frizz.
- Dry the strands
Do you know how to prevent wavy hair extensions from getting frizzy?
Most hair professionals recommend air-drying the locks to achieve a beautiful natural wave.
Alternatively, you can use a hairdryer, but make sure the air is not too hot and use a diffuser to dry them gently.
Daily Maintenance Routine
So, how to style wavy hair extensions?
- Start from brushing and detangling
To keep your curls looking their best, it's important to comb them every morning when you wake up, as needed throughout the day, and before bed.
Always start combing from the tips and work your way up to the roots.
While combing, take your curls with your hand as if you're going to put them in a low ponytail. This will help reduce stress on the roots and prevent damage to any bonds, tapes, or wefts.
For easier detangling, try using a Janeke Mixed Bristle Brush With Nylon and Boar Bristles. This comb will help you gently untangle your curls and leave your hair looking smooth and shiny.
- Recommended Hair Products for Wavy Extensions
It includes shampoo, conditioner, hair mask, leave-in conditioner for defined curls, and thermal protection spray for those who prefer to blow dry their hair.
Your hair tech is the best person to advise you on the condition of your curls and their specific needs.
- Avoiding Excessive Heat Styling
Exposure to high temperatures from hair styling tools like hair dryers and flat irons can have a negative impact on the health of your hair.
It's best to let your hair dry naturally to maintain its beauty and prolong service life.
- Protecting Your Extensions While Sleeping
Did you know that your hair can get damaged while you sleep? There are a couple of reasons for this.
Firstly, your hair can get tangled easily. To prevent this, we suggest tying your hair in a low and loose ponytail or a loose braid before going to bed.
Secondly, the friction between your hair and the pillow can cause split ends, dryness, and can make your hair frizzy. To avoid this, it is recommended to use natural silk scrunchies and pillowcases. This material is gentle on your hair and helps protect it from damage.
Do wavy hair extensions stay wavy?
The things you can do to extend the lifespan of wavy hair extensions:
- Don’t comb your hair when it is wet. Also, refrain from sleeping with wet hair. Whenever possible, avoid using hot styling tools.
- Using oil-based shampoo or other hair products can weaken the bonds, wefts or tapes.
- Wash your hair regularly to eliminate all impurities. However, keep in mind that curly hair requires less frequent washing than straight hair. Curly strands tend to be dry, so washing them too often will result in dryness and loss of natural moisture. Use care and styling products specially formulated for curly hair. You can ask your hair tech to recommend such products for you.
Follow these tips and your hairstyle will stay wavy longer!
