    I noticed the same thing!! Ive gotten hair from them four times over the years (first time early 2017). My first wig was BEAUTIFUL and I absolutely loved the tiny little ringlets. I just recently (april 2021) got the goddess u-part for kurls wig and i was a little disappointed…the curls are not as coily as before. And you are absolutely right it is BIG hair, it expands a lot!!

    I find that professional haircolor with an aniline derivative works best with this hair as it is basically made curly chemically. Box dyes are metallic, and they can make the hair dry, and it could fry it. I love Heatfree Hair. I use a creme by Tigi for curl definition and Laran foam wrap. FYI. I've had this hair last me for years.

      That’s really helpful, thank you for sharing. I do think mine looked dry from the package though. Something was just off. Also, I used boxed dye with it in the past. I’ll certainly look into using that hair color for my future curly bundles. TY

    I have worn this hair since they came out years ago, you guys are right the quality was BETTER then! I love this hair as to why I keep buying however, I have had some mishaps with shedding, matting and thin wefts. I have complained and is really annoyed with them taking advantage of their loyal customers. They claim they manufacture their own hair now (side eye).
    Do anyone know of any alternative hair companies with the same curl patterns but better quality? I am ready to take my money elsewhere and so sorry you had to go through this! This hair is way to expensive for this kind of stress!

    Unfortunately, I had the same issues with their hair. Extremely disappointed. I ordered the Kurl, it matted and shedded tons. I assumed I received a bad batch so I ordered the Koil it was much better but it too matted not as bad as the kurl. I have worn kinky hair for 2 decades, their hair is not worth the money charged for their hair. Its beautiful but not great once wet.

    Hi! I just bought hair from HFH and your review is exactly how I feel about the hair when I first received it 😭 I bought it during their Black Friday Sale, this is my very first time buying from them but NOT MY FIRST TIME BUYING KINKY COILY hair. I emailed, spoke to someone, they keep telling me that because I colored the hair, it may have changed the texture of the hair. They refuse to account for the fact that the hair IS NOT VIRGIN AS THEY CLAIM. It feels like plastic. Now they said to use minimal products, I’m willing to try but I am so disappointed especially after spending $620 (I got 3 18inches bundles). It’s not even blending with my hair. I don’t even know anymore

    • @emilywilliams2328
      @emilywilliams2328  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Hey Emily, thank you so much for posting this video! I love Heatfree hair actually and I use them all the time. I do have to admit that my experience is the same with Kurls. I actually don't like this texture at all. I have done everything on Earth to make it less frizzy, soft and tangle free with no success. I'm so happy a friend told me to look up to see if anyone used this hair and I found your video. Can you also list the products in the info as well? I already bought the Knot Today and Silicon Mix. I was already planning to remove my extensions this Saturday but now that I seen you video, I will try again with this hair. Your results look pretty by the way. I'm still a diehard Heatfree Hair fan but I will never buy Kurls again lol. I will stick to Blowout and Koils. I liked Koils, even though it doesn't match my texture. But Kurls is just not what it is. It's a tangled mess. I hope to share my results tonight when I tackle this hair lol😂🙏🏾

    • @emilywilliams2328

    There hair has definitely changed. And they don’t want to admit. I purchased and my for kurls looked like for kinks. I emailed and I was told that because I purchased during a sale it was final and could not be returned. This makes me think that the sale hair is of lower quality and thus reason for the sale. Which is very sad. Very disappointed and they didn’t offer any other solutions.
