How Many Bundles Do You Need? The Ultimate Belle Société Guide (Closures, Frontals, Lengths & Textures)
Before buying hair, every woman asks the same question: “How many bundles do I need?” Today, Belle Société gives you the definitive clean beauty answer.
One of the top searches in the entire hair industry — every single day — is:
“How many bundles do I need for my install?”
But the real answer depends on:
✔ your desired fullness
✔ the type of install
✔ the texture
✔ the length
✔ whether you’re using a closure or frontal
✔ your natural hair density
✔ your stylist’s technique
Most brands give generic advice.
Belle Société gives you a clean beauty, texture-specific, length-specific, fullness-specific bundle guide so you NEVER buy too little (or too much).
Let’s build your perfect look.
THE OFFICIAL BELLE SOCIÉTÉ BUNDLE GUIDE
We’re breaking this down by:
-
Install Type
-
Length
-
Texture
-
Desired Fullness
This is the ultimate guide women save, share, and refer back to.
1. How Many Bundles for a Closure Sew-In?
✨ 12–18 inches:
2 bundles = natural fullness
3 bundles = thick glam look
✨ 20–26 inches:
3 bundles = standard
4 bundles = full glam / layered look
✨ 28–30 inches:
4 bundles minimum
Belle hair stays full, but long lengths require more density.
Why?
Longer lengths naturally appear thinner toward the ends — Belle prevents thinning, but density still matters.
2. How Many Bundles for a Frontal Install?
Frontals cover more of the head → require more bundles for fullness.
✨ 12–18 inches:
2–3 bundles
✨ 20–26 inches:
3–4 bundles
✨ 28–30 inches:
4 bundles recommended
Frontal installs need more body because the frontal itself adds no volume — only coverage.
3. How Many Bundles for Leave-Out Sew-Ins?
Leave-out sew-ins require slightly fewer bundles because your natural hair adds volume.
✨ 12–18 inches:
2 bundles (natural)
3 bundles (full)
✨ 20–26 inches:
3 bundles
✨ 28–30 inches:
3–4 bundles
Belle’s Body Wave and Silky Straight blend seamlessly with leave-out.
4. How Many Bundles for Quick Weaves?
Quick weaves use more track length than sew-ins.
✨ 12–18 inches:
2–3 bundles
✨ 20–26 inches:
3–4 bundles
✨ 28–30 inches:
4 bundles
Because quick weaves require cutting tracks, density matters even more.
5. How Many Bundles for Clip-Ins?
Belle Clip-Ins = One Full Set
One set of Belle clip-ins =
✔ full style
✔ instant glam
✔ no leave-out stress
One set = equivalent to 1.5–2 bundles depending on length.
6. How Many Bundles for Ponytails?
Belle Wrap Ponytail = One Unit Only
One ponytail = full glam
No extra bundles needed.
Bundle Count by Length (General Guide)
This is the bundle chart women screenshot the most.
12–16 inches:
2 bundles for natural
3 bundles for full
18–22 inches:
3 bundles standard
4 bundles full glam
24–30 inches:
4 bundles recommended
4+ bundles for extra volume
Belle’s clean beauty processing helps the hair maintain its fullness longer — but if you want influence-worthy glam, 4 bundles for lengths 24"+ is perfect.
Bundle Count by Texture
Silky Straight
✔ thinner appearance → more bundles
3 bundles (short lengths)
4 bundles (long lengths)
Body Wave
✔ naturally full → moderate bundles
2–3 bundles (short)
3–4 bundles (long)
Deep Wave
✔ full + defined → fewer bundles
2 bundles (short)
3 bundles (long)
4 bundles (high glam)
Belle’s Deep Wave stays full even in longer lengths.
Which Bundle Count Looks Most Natural?
If you want NATURAL fullness:
✨ 2 bundles for short lengths (12–16”)
✨ 3 bundles for medium lengths (18–22”)
✨ 3–4 bundles for long lengths (24–30”)
If you want LUXE, IG, soft-life glam:
✨ 3 bundles short
✨ 4 bundles long
CLEAN BEAUTY DIFFERENCE: WHY BELLE REQUIRES FEWER BUNDLES THAN OTHER BRANDS
Cheap factory hair thins out quickly because of:
❌ acid baths
❌ silicone dips
❌ weak cuticles
❌ excessive steaming
Belle requires fewer bundles because:
✨ density is real
✨ fullness is intact
✨ the cuticle is preserved
✨ the ends stay thick
✨ there’s no fake silicone coating
This is why a Belle install looks effortlessly full.
