Raw Cambodian hair bundles are often regarded as the "luxury workhorse" of the hair world. Unlike raw Indian hair, which tends to be finer and silkier, or Vietnamese hair, which is famously bone-straight and sleek, Cambodian hair is prized for its coarse, slightly textured feel. This unique grit allows it to blend seamlessly with natural hair—especially for those with 3A to 4C textures—offering a realistic look that "silky" bundles often fail to achieve.

From a performance standpoint, Cambodian hair is incredibly resilient. Because the strands are naturally thicker, they hold curls significantly longer than other raw varieties and can withstand high heat or heavy bleaching with minimal damage. While raw Indian hair is often lighter and flowier, raw cambodian hair bundles provide a dense, voluminous appearance that stays full from root to tip. In my experience, if you want longevity (lasting 3+ years) and a texture that mimics a natural blowout, Cambodian is the gold standard. However, it does require more hydration than finer hair types to maintain its luster.
