Shade 5, in the Donor's Own Wave
Shade 5 sits between our medium and light brown hair extensions: brightness without leaving brunette. See our shade 5 K-tips for the comparison. The wave is the donor's own, never permed. Each of these light brown weft extensions is one-of-a-kind, a pattern varying slightly from photos — proof of single-donor sourcing, not a disclaimer.
A Longer Weft Carries More Hair, Not Less
Weight rises with length:
- 18": 48-50g
- 20": 48-52g
- 22": 50-52g
- 24": 50-52g
Every weft is 24 inches wide. With K-tips, a longer order spreads a fixed 20g over fewer strands, so length costs density — here, length and weight climb together, and a 24" carries more hair than an 18". As genius weft hair extensions go, these light brown weft extensions answer real length and full density at once. Construction: silicone-sealed seams, no return hair, no glue; cut anywhere without unraveling; heat-safe to 390°F.
Who Should Order the Shade 5 Wavy Weft
Suits the wavy light brunette wanting full coverage in one sitting: fewer pieces, dramatic volume. Also the pick when straight extensions never blended once dry. As wavy weft hair extensions go, she needs 5-6 inches of hair, moved up every 6-8 weeks. Care: air-dry, scrunch, skip heat. A client wanting a multi-shade dimension should choose the shade 5 K-tips instead. As wavy weft hair extensions go, this light brown weft extension option suits full-coverage clients, alongside the shade 6 wavy genius weft. Browse the full genius weft hair extensions collection.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does each weft weigh at my length?
18" runs 48-50g, 20" runs 48-52g, 22" runs 50-52g, and 24" runs 50-52g.
Do longer wefts contain more hair, or just longer hair?
More hair; weight climbs with length, unlike K-tips, where a fixed pack spreads thinner.
Can I cut the track to fit a shorter row?
Yes, the sealed seam won't fray or unravel when trimmed.
Is the wave natural or permed?
Fully natural; we never perm our textured bundles.
How much natural hair do I need to hide the track?
About 5-6 inches is enough to conceal it cleanly.
