As a Stylist that specializes in the art hair extensions, I found the origin of donors is of the utmost of importance to determine quality. The quality of your hair extension hair will determine whether or not they look real, and how long the hair lasts.

There are a large number of hair extension artists claiming to use virgin Indian hair for many hundreds even thousands of dollars, when in actual fact they are selling good quality European hair sourced from donors with origins in South America, Italy, Eurasian ect . This hairs cuticle has been harshly processed to strip out the very thick texture and dark colour pigments. To mimic western hair (Caucasian), the hair is re-tinted using fabric colours not hair colours to achieve the desired shade. Asian Hair Hair sourced from donors of Asian and China donors is a very course hair strand and grows naturally very dark and very straight. The pigments are stripped back to nothing then a short lasting silicon coating is added for a more realistic texture. For this reason Asian hair is usually the cheapest and most unnatural looking hair available on the market only lasting for the short term.

Raw Virgin Indian Hair has NEVER been chemically treated and the cuticle is not processed and stripped unlike Asian. The hair reacts beautifully to salon products and remains silky even after lighting and colouring. Raw virgin Russian hair is widely known as the "creme de la creme" of hair and of the finest quality. The hair not only looks the most natural but also last for years not months. Virgin Indian hair is softer, finer and more compatible with western hair allowing the hair move naturally with more volume which means less extensions and less potential damage to your own hair. Cost Factors

Due to the scarce nature of sourcing raw virgin Indian hair the initial cost can be significantly more than Asian hair. People only compare prices directly, however volume and durability should also be an important consideration. You may find that over the long term you can purchase raw virgin Indian hair for the same price as Asian hair when allowing for how long the hair will last and how many extensions you need. Chemically treated hair is flat and lifeless needing more hair to produce the same affect as non treated hair. In addition to volume, raw virgin Indian hair will last for years not months so the only cost is the cost a hair extension artist will charge for uplifting the extensions. Many well known brands do not offer uplifting due to the poor quality and durability of the product they use. If hair extension artists or salons claim to offer raw virgin Indian hair but can only guarantee the product for less than six months it is more than likely a false claim.

Quick Facts: Asian
As we know, Asian hair is NOT like our own. Did you know that Asian hair is put into a chemical bath, which breaks down the cuticle to make the hair thinner and more like our own? It is then, put in a silicone bath which gives it the appearance of healthy looking hair. However, as soon as you wash this hair you will notice that it will soon go back to "wiglike straw looking" hair. For this reason I do not use Asian hair for any other purpose than a quick fix Halloween Costume type of situation.

Hair only last in original condition for a short period Not recommended to colour as hair becomes even more porous Does not look real Not recommended to swim Frequently tangles Maintenance is very high Needs to be styled often
