Virgin Hair Facts
1. Non-Processed Virgin Remy Human Hair also known as cuticle hair is hair that has been cut from a single donor's scalp and left untreated except for cleansing for sanitation. The hair is then wefted, left as a pony intact for bulk braiding hair, ventilated for a wig or bonded in the same direction the pony was cut to insure all cuticles are laying in the same direction. This hair is not mixed with any other donor's hair. This hair is single drawn and there may be a mix of long and short hairs.
You may find occasional gray hair in your hair system and this is one of the ways you can tell you have virgin cuticle human hair. Another way to tell is by taking a look at the hair under a microscope. You will see the hair cuticles or "feathers" going in the same direction aginst the hair shaft.
You will feel the virgin cuticle hair is slightly denser than the common non - cuticle hair because cuticle is still intact. This hair can be colored, permed and withstand high temperatures. The life of this hair can be anywhere between 1 to 5 years. This hair may be taken down and worn again when properly maintained.
2. Virgin Hair Color Hues range from natural blacks to dark and light browns and blondes with possible natural highlights. When buying virgin hair please know we will send you the darkest dark browns or lightest shades we carry but each donors head is different, one might have been exposed to sun longer than another. Don't choose light brown and then be unhappy because it's "too brown" this is the risk you carry when buying virgin cuticle human hair.
