9A grade straight hair — the sweet spot for silk-press wearers who want quality without the top-grade price. One step under 10A: still 100% raw Indian hair, full from root to tip, slightly less dense at the longest lengths.
Silky with a natural sheen, presses bone-straight with minimal heat, and stays sleek between washes. Straight is the lowest-maintenance texture and the least prone to tangling of any pattern.
Lengths run 10" and up in natural black, priced by length from $52 a bundle. Most full sew-ins use 3 bundles up to 18", 4 for 20" and longer. One bundle covers a ponytail or partial install.
Cuticles stay aligned in one direction so shedding stays minimal. Can be colored by a professional, though lifting natural black to blonde takes more than one session.
Care: detangle before washing, wash in lukewarm water, condition 5 minutes and rinse. Pat dry, brush from the ends up. Skip heavy mousses, gels, and hairsprays — they cause buildup on raw hair.
