Pre Stretched Braiding Hair 20 Inch 8 Packs Natural Black Braiding Hair Pre Stretched Professional Soft Yaki Texture, Hot Water Setting Hair Extensions for Braids (20inch,#1B) #1B 20 Inch (Pack of 8)
Overview
The ShowCoco Pre-Stretched Braiding Hair is an 8-pack set of 20-inch synthetic extensions in #1B (natural black) with a soft yaki texture that mimics relaxed or lightly texturized hair. Each bundle arrives pre-stretched and evenly tapered so you skip the time-consuming manual stretching step and get consistent thickness from root to tip. The fiber accepts a hot-water setting for sealing ends and reducing frizz, producing neat, long-lasting box, feed-in, or jumbo braids. This product suits professional stylists and at-home braiders who want a realistic look and faster install times without the price or upkeep of human hair. Best used for protective styles where a soft, natural-yaki finish is desired.
Key Features
- Length: 20 inches per strand when pre-stretched — braids will sit shorter depending on braid size and tension.
- Pack count: 8 bundles — designed to cover most medium-to-full head installations for standard box or feed-in braids.
- Color: #1B Natural Black — a deep soft black that blends well with many natural hair colors.
- Texture: Soft Yaki — slightly textured to mimic relaxed/straightened natural hair for a realistic look and better grip when braiding.
- Hot-water setting compatible — dip finished braids in hot water to seal and smooth ends; no manual stretching required.
