Undeniably, hair extensions are among the best beauty products created for the modern woman. With the best quality virgin hair -and proper care- you can look stunning every day from the moment you wake up and get out of bed quite effortlessly! What can beat that!
Besides the many methods to wearing extensions (fusion, micro loops, sew-in braiding, clip-ins, glue-ins, etc.), there are also various types of extensions that determine the final look.
So, no matter why you wear hair extensions for (fullness, length, protect your own hair, etc.), you need to know what type to choose. Here’s a guide with the essentials to help you make up your mind!
Real Remy* Hair Extensions vs. Synthetic Extensions
Getting hair extensions that don’t cost more than a coffee at Starbucks and a spinach pie from Everest is certainly alluring. Many Chinese manufacturers have created partially synthetic hair extensions that fit the budget. However, don’t expect much. These extensions mimic the feel and look of real hair but only last a couple of months. Plus, you will never look natural wearing them and there are dangers deriving from using synthetic hair.
Virgin Remy hair extensions, on the other hand, are an entirely different kettle of fish. These are top-notch quality and last at least 12 months, although there are many women that have had theirs for years and still look gorgeous.
And, to give you another perspective, micro-economies in countries like India and Cambodia, where many women sell their hair to bring food to the table and save themselves from having to sell their bodies, will be severely threatened by the spread of synthetic extensions, even if they performed as well as their human counterparts.
That said, Remy human hair is the real thing, which is always what we are all looking for, instead of cheap imitations and replicas.
*You may hear premium virgin hair extensions made of Single Drawn Hair are also called Remy Hair, Virgin Hair, Cuticle Hair, or Remy Single Drawn (RSD).
Human Hair Types
There are various options to choose from, always depending on the look you want to achieve.
1. Brazilian Hair Extensions
They can withstand the effects of water and heat and are very hard wearing. Brazilian hair extensions come in two types, curly and straight.
2. Indian Hair Extensions
They are much preferred for their natural look. This stunning Indian Remy hair is thick but, despite what you may think, it’s extremely lightweight, too! It feels airy, especially after you wash it, and is naturally straight. However, it can go wavy after some applications, which makes it an extremely appealing, versatile hair type!
And, if you want to enhance the waves, all you need to do is simply wear it in a bun overnight. Want it reverted back to straight? Running irons or a quick blow-dry is enough.
3. European/ Mongolian/ Malaysian/ Russian Hair Extensions
These are good choices if you want your hair to be straight all the time (they don’t wave). Also, it’s suitable for you if you have fine hair. These hair types work with the majority of hair types in Europe and are light in density.
Note: If you want volume and impact, you need a full head of extensions. In this case, Indian virgin hair extensions are perfect for you. If you wish to add body to your own, European hair extensions are a good option. However, with Indian Remy hair, you get to play with all styles so it’s more handy.
The most important factor that will either ensure success or create a Waterloo is your hair extensions provider. Make sure to always look up reviews! A great place to find top-quality hair extensions and wigs is Margaret’s Hair Salon in Sacramento, but do your homework, anyway!
