very bouncy may be great for year olds [SEP] this synthetic hair for crocheting is very tight and very springy i m not experienced with the different types of synthetic hair for braiding or crocheting this will be my first time getting any kind of braiding crocheting i ordered this hair from reading the reviews and thought it would have less shedding and be less frizzy when i received the hair i was not impressed or interested my impression of it is that it s probably more suitable for young girls or teenagers and not for mature women unless being installed by an experienced professional that has a particular type of style in mind i hope this is helpful
