RastAfri's Pre-Stretched Freed'm Silky Braid is the same Afrelle kanekalon fiber as their regular Freed'm Silky Braid, except it's pre-stretched. Pre-stretched braiding hair takes out the work most braiders face when braiding with bulk hair. It creates a natural look. Your braider will thank you due to the time it takes to stretch out the fibers to create a more tapered look.
