Body Wave is the loosest pattern we carry — closer to a soft bend than a curl. It is the texture people choose when they want movement without definition, and it is the one that photographs most like natural hair that has been blown out.
Here is exactly what it costs.
The short answer
| Length | Weight | Price |
|---|---|---|
| 18 inches | 100g | $120 |
| 24 inches | 100g | $150 |
Sold as bulk with no weft — it braids straight in.
What a full install comes to
Nobody buys one bundle. What you pay depends on how full you want it:
- 1 bundle — light boho, a few pieces through the braid
- 2 to 3 bundles — natural volume, the most common choice
- 4 bundles — very full
| Look | 18" | 24" |
|---|---|---|
| Light boho | $120 | $150 |
| Natural volume | $240–$360 | $300–$450 |
| Very full | $480 | $600 |
Free US shipping starts at $200, so anything past one bundle ships free.
Color — where Body Wave is unusual
In stock, Body Wave carries six shades at 18 inches: natural black, 4, 8, 27, 30 and 613. All at $120.
And it is the only stock bulk texture that also carries a color at 24 inches — shade 8, light ash brown, at $150. Every other coloured bulk bundle on the shelf stops at 18.
Beyond that, all nine shades are available at 12, 18 and 24 inches made to order through Custom Color Bulk Hair, at the same prices. We mapped the whole colour-and-length question in 24 Inch Braiding Hair in Color.
Why it costs more than the $30 bundles
Marketplace listings sell 100g of human braiding hair for $25 to $40. Some of it is genuinely human hair. Much of it is a blend, or hair processed heavily enough to behave like fibre after the first wash, and there is no way to tell from a listing photo.
What you are paying for here: 100% human hair, a true 100g per bundle, hair that takes colour and heat because it is hair, and a named business with a working salon in Ridgeland, Mississippi. The longer version of that argument is in Italian Curl Hair Price.
When another texture is the better buy
We would rather say this now than after you order.
If you want definition, Body Wave is the wrong choice. It is the loosest pattern we have. Deep Wave gives a deeper, more even S-wave at the same price and carries eight shades. Italian Curl gives a rounder, springier curl.
If you want the most colour options in stock, Deep Wave has eight shades at 18 inches against Body Wave's six.
