DIFFERENCES


Malaysian Hair - Malaysian hair at first can appear excessively shiny but after the first 2/3 washes the shine lessens considerably to take on a more natural appearance. Curls will not loosen or drop with time but maintain their form for the entire day. No product is required to maintain the curl. Avoid using too oil spray on this hair as it will make the hair very shiny and appear 'wiggy'. Malaysian hair is softer and silker in texture than Indian hair.If you want volume and thickness, Malaysian hair is your best option. It gives great bounce and heavy body. It is great for all styles. Malaysian hair comes naturally dark in color and natural straight. Due to its fullness, it can have a tendency to be dry if proper care isn’t taken. We advise that sufficient moisture in the form of good leave-in conditioner be used after the second re-use of the hair. The good thing is that this type of hair requires less wash because of its heavy density.


Indian Hair - This is 100% Indian virgin and it comes from the Indian Race.Indian hair tends to dry into a beautiful wave which ranges from a slight wave to very wavy, although it straightens and curls very easily. The hair holds curls very well but they do loosen slightly but will never totally fall out unless you are in a humid or damp environment. By purchasing Indian hair from an honest supplier, it will come in its raw state. A co-wash is absolutely necessary to transform this hair from its raw state.

Peruvian Hair - This hair is a little coarser and thicker in texture than Indian or Brazilian hair. It blends well with normal African-American relaxed hair textures and medium Caucasian hair textures. Peruvian hair has received tons of attention since 2010. Peruvian hair is multi purpose hair. Peruvian hair has the ability to look naturally voluminous despite the fact it is lightweight.Meaning, you can have over 500grams (5pcks) of hair and yet it feels like feathers.

DO'S AND DON'TS


1. Air drying is highly recommended for all types of hair after washing and conditioning.


2. Perform a co-wash at least once in 2-3 weeks.


3. Try to always use a moisturizing leave in conditioner. Avoid having to use any other styling products between washes.


4. Use alcohol free serums or products on hair. This will not dry out the hair and make it frizzy.


5. Do not apply any heavy oils on hair as they will seep on to the hair extension, in turn weighing it down and resulting in restricted movement and potential tangling
