About World Hair Extensions Indian Hair Sourcing Process
Why Indian Hair?
Indian hair is highly regarded in the hair industry primarily because of its flexibility, durability, and rich texture. Indian hair is naturally thick and full bodied, so it gives the best possible styling and installation options for extensions. The hair is also naturally dark, so it works very well with most braiding and weaving applications for women of color. Remy Indian hair is synonymous with quality, therefore if you buy Remy hair you’re buying the absolute best Indian hair possible. All of our Remy Indian hair is guaranteed.

The Sourcing & Inspection Process
Most hair won't qualify
Even before your order is placed, our team in India is hard at work collecting the most amazing hair possible. Hundreds of pounds of Temple hair is sorted into distinct batches, keeping all the hair from the same donor together. Each batch is thoroughly inspected and tested for strength, health, color consistency, and texture. Of this hair, only a few batches are accepted for the Margaret brand.
Hair Inspection Technology
Every bundle of hair is inspected using an Omano Stereo Microscope. This microscope gives us the ability to look at individual strands of hair to inspect and ensure that the fundamental elements of healthy hair are present in the bundle.
Here is a quick summary of the characteristics that makes for healthy hair and what we look for when using the stereo microscope to inspect the hair.
Diameter
Cross Section
The cross section of the hair is the geometric property of the hair when looking at the cross section of a strand. The ideal is to have a nice round cross-section. Most hair is a bit oval and unfortunately for women of color, the cross section is actually like a very flattened oval. This is why the hair forms tight angles along a strand and results in the dense curls.
Pigmentation
Cuticle
Undulation
Weft Craftsmanship
Post Order Processing
Upon arrival from India, our staff personally hand picks your Remy hair and double checks for color and texture accuracy. Keep in mind our hair has also been inspected before leaving India. After our trained staff hand selects your Remy Hair, two individuals check and confirm the length of the hair. The lengths are extremely accurate, so you can be confident you’re getting exactly what you ordered.Your hair is then delicately washed with a Ph balanced shampoo. After washing, we use an air drying process that allows the moisture to evaporate naturally off the hair leaving the the hair silky smooth and ready for the red carpet. Finally, your hair is carefully packaged in a special protective bag that keeps debris, air born dust, and static from affecting the product. Your Indian Remy Hair is immediately shipped straight to your door within hours of your order.
