You really need to see several packs first to ensure the hair will be high quality on a CONSISTENT basis ... especially if you are going to buy it long term.
STEP 1

Can they show you the different type of hair before you buy it?

European and Russian grade hair
Some women and men who grow hair must follow a special diet to ensure that they will be healthy, well nourished and of the best quality.
STEP 2
What is the origin of the hair?
European and Russian grade hair can originate from any country where the European and Russian hair supply may come to come from one or two regions for this reason the words European and Russian hair which may It is compatible with the greater hair extensions industries consumers.
Most blond hair sold as extensions in hair extensions in the resent years, therefore natural blonde hair extensions are very hard to come by, so one must have to assume that almost all hair sold in lighter shades will have some lightening and processing to reach the desired shade.
European hair comes in a host of textures, from straight, to wavy to curry. The of is the same in texture, the hair is compatible with most people but may not work with other hair textures such as African or Asian.
Colors are generally medium brown to dark brown and will be dyes lighter if required. Human hair is far softer and healthier if it has not enriched with aggressive acid bathes to shave back its cuticle.
Asian Hair
Asian hairs are generally thick, straight, and coarse. It is quite difficult to manage and get it to hold a style for this reason Asian hair can be stripped in an acid bath to make the cuticle smaller so the hair is finer ... this once tremendously damages the needle of silicone to coat the exposed cuticle. mats As synthetic we are finding the rise in heat resistant synthetic fibers being mixed with human hair ... this is becoming a far greater practice than ever before resulting in matting and tangling and problems when trying to straighten the hair.
Indian Hair
Indian hair Pirgrims sacrifice their hair to the God Vishnu in the process called tonsuring. Often times the people of India have no idea they have been tricked into donating their hair so it can be sold and many people now refused to buy Indian hair based on ethical reasons.
Unfortunately due to the rising demand in human hair extensions Indian hair is often mixed with synthetic hair and / or animal hair during processing.
Indian hair is lingering recently. Indian hair is becoming very difficult to buy with confidence as it many times up tangling and matting due the hair being mixed with something else and or not being cuticle correct.
So where possible it is much better to buy 100% human European or Russian hair if you have a European texture.
Asian hair. Stripped. Asian hair which has not processed processed - you will need to ask ask for "for virgin & # 39;
You will need to be sure that you have not mixed with any foreign materials before purchase.
Step 3
Is the Hair Remy?
The next critical step in purchasing hair extensions is whether it is remy or not.
It is fairly normal for cuticles to be missing or worn down near the ends of the hair strands, but thick and healthy near the roots.
You may be on a budget and think ... well this hair is super cheap and probably is not remy ... but it should be OK ... you will just brush it a bit more ... right? ... wrong !
Non-remy hair is a girls worst nightmare and something you NEVER want to deal with.
It will tangle and matt terribly! It will tangle and matt terribly!
As soon as there is any movement ... it will catch like Velcro and become a knotty mess.
Now you understand you should never buy non-remy hair ...
So it 's easy ... just ask for remy hair ... right? Well unfortunately most of the hair extension sellers today, simply have NO IDEA what they are selling and have not themselves being directly involved in the complex hair trade world.
The seller often has little or no experience in hair extension care, application and processing methods and little knowledge of the true origin of theair itself.
Often untrained and inexperienced company believe selling human hair is like any other product.
Extensions are not other any other manufactured product ... every head of hair is different and with the array of processing methods, origins of the hair in and of them, the textures, lengths, grades and coloring methods..Hair extensions are incredibly complicated and complex subject.
One must have many years of understanding of the world & # 39; s hair trade itself to successfully ensure the human hair they sell is soft, naturally shiny and absolutely provide a hassle free experience while installed within the recipients own hair.
For all the above mentioned reasons, it is very important you find out how much better your seller really has.
Unfortunately though, not very many companies sell 100% Remy hair extensions because it is not expensive raw hair but very expensive to manufacture. Real remy hair extensions that are properly kept in the Remy state are also very expensive for the buyer and can not be purchased cheaply. With the rise in competition within the industry, many sellers in their haste to offer the "cheapest" extensions, will secretly buy cheap, non-remy or mixed indian or Chinese hair and forward it as a genuine high quality product on to the unknowing customer.
If the hair is really 100% Remy human hair, it is a worthy investment otherwise especially you are throwing your money away.
