How Many Bundles Do I Need for a Sew-In with a Closure?
One of the most commonly asked questions in the hair world is:
“How many bundles do I need for a sew-in with a closure?”
Whether you're booking with a stylist or planning a self-install, the number of bundles you use determines the fullness, balance, and longevity of your final look. While The Press Room Salon specializes in luxury leave-out sew-ins, we believe in educating our clients on all protective style options—including closure installs.
In this post, we’ll break down how many bundles are typically needed for closure installs, what factors impact bundle count, and where to buy premium hair and closures that deliver beautiful, long-lasting results.
What Is a Closure Sew-In?
A closure sew-in uses a lace or silk closure to cover the top portion of the head, eliminating the need to leave any natural hair out. This is a great option for women who want:
✔ A fully protective style
✔ Low-maintenance daily upkeep
✔ A seamless, wig-like finish without adhesive
Even though The Press Room Salon does not currently offer closure installs, we always want our clients to have access to trusted information and high-quality hair that supports their goals.
How Many Bundles for a Closure Sew-In?
➤ 12–16 Inches
✔ 2 to 2.5 bundles
Closures cover a portion of the head, so shorter styles can often be achieved with fewer bundles. This gives a natural, lightweight look.
➤ 18–22 Inches
✔ 3 bundles
This is the sweet spot for medium-length styles. Three bundles ensure your install looks full, especially with straight or body wave textures.
➤ 24–30 Inches
✔ 3.5 to 4 bundles
Longer lengths have thinner wefts, so additional bundles are needed for balanced fullness—especially if you plan to layer or curl the hair.
What Affects How Many Bundles You’ll Need?
Hair Texture – Straight hair needs more bundles than curly or kinky textures
Closure Size – A larger closure may reduce how much track hair is needed
Desired Fullness – The more volume you want, the more bundles you’ll need
Hair Density – If you have a smaller head or want a natural density, 2.5–3 may be enough
