Best Bundles for a Sew-In

For most sew-ins, 2–3 bundles cover mid-lengths and 3–4 cover 24 inches and beyond. Pair them with a closure for a simple part or a frontal for flexible styling. Body wave is the easiest everyday texture; deep wave gives the most volume with fewer bundles.

Top picks

1

Everyday sew-in — Body Wave + Closure

A natural, low-maintenance install

Two to three Body Wave bundles with a 4x4 closure give a clean middle or side part that's beginner-friendly and quick to install.

2

Full, glam sew-in — Deep Wave + Frontal

Maximum volume and flexible parting

Deep Wave reads fuller, so it pairs well with a frontal for ear-to-ear styling, ponytails, and a fuller hairline.

3

Long length (24"+)

Keeping length looking full at the ends

Add a fourth bundle for 24 inches and beyond so the install stays full rather than thinning out toward the tips.

How many bundles you really need

Up to 18 inches, two bundles usually suffice. From 18–22 inches, three keep it full. At 24 inches and longer, a fourth bundle prevents thin ends. A closure or frontal completes the install on top.

Match texture to your routine

Body wave is the most forgiving for daily wear and restyling. Deep wave delivers more body for fewer bundles but asks for more conditioning. Pick the one that fits how often you'll style.

Common questions

Best Bundles for a Sew-In FAQ

How many bundles for a sew-in with a closure?

For most lengths, 2–3 bundles plus one closure. Add a bundle once you pass 24 inches to keep the ends full.

Is body wave or deep wave better for a sew-in?

Body wave is easier to maintain and restyle for everyday wear. Deep wave looks fuller and needs fewer bundles, but wants more conditioning.

Do I need a closure or a frontal?

A closure suits a simple part and a quicker, lower-cost install. A frontal lets you part anywhere and wear styles off the face.
