200g+ Human Hair (Approximately 3 Kiwi Fruit)
Extensions weighing 200g or more per pack are extremely thick, especially hair extensions on short hair. Women who desire fuller, thicker volume but have very thin hair may need something like this, to ensure their results look natural.
Stranded would only recommend wearing extensions above 200g if you have very thin hair, or you require thick extensions that are also long (above 18 inches).
