Single, double or super double drawn: what your clients really mean
The difference is not the hair itself but how many short strands are left in the bundle.
Every head of hair has strands of different lengths. When a donor's hair is cut, a 24 inch bundle also contains 18, 14 and 10 inch strands. "Drawn" describes how many of those were removed.
Single drawn
Only the very short hairs are removed. The bundle is full at the weft and thinner at the ends, which looks natural and costs less.
Double drawn
Short strands are pulled out a second time by hand, so most of the bundle reaches full length. This is the standard for most units sold in Nigeria.
Super double drawn
A third pass leaves around 90% of the strands at full length. Ends are as thick as the weft, which is the "full to the tip" look clients ask for with bone straight. It takes more raw hair, so it costs more.
What to stock
- Bone straight: super double drawn sells best.
- Body wave and curls: double drawn is enough, the pattern hides the ends.
- Budget customers: single drawn in shorter lengths.
