VIRGIN HAIR refers to the hair which is 100% RAW Natural Hair or UNPROCESSED human hair coming from real donors. In other terms the virgin hair is the hair which is never been chemically treated, permed, colored, dyed, bleached, processed or styled. Please note: If you are purchasing hair with defined, identical curl or wave pattern then you should understand that it is permed/processed hair.

To put it in simple way, virgin hair can be called as remy pure hair IF it is in natural unprocessed state with cuticles intact. When the virgin hair is processed to get the desired color or texture type or both then we call it as remy pure hair.

The hair cuticle is the outermost part of the hair shaft. Cuticles are formed from protein cells, overlapping in layers, which form scales that give hair shaft strength and provide protection for it. Cuticle layer is responsible to allow and hold the moisture there by determines how well your hair styles and feels. Note: Virgin Hair or Remy Pure hair must have cuticle layer intact.

Processed hair is the human hair which is chemically treated. During the production of hair extensions, hair is soaked in acid and other chemicals to strip of cuticle layer which alters all the natural characteristics of hair strands.

All of our hair extensions are made with 100% Raw Virgin Indian Hair. This type of Indian hair is sourced directly from south Indian temples and also from few raw material suppliers. RAW Indian hair is 100% Natural Un-Processed hair so simply the hair quality speaks for itself.

YES, you can color the virgin/raw hair extensions. 100% virgin hair has never been chemically treated and it can therefore handle the coloring process very well. However, it will no longer be called as virgin hair once you color or process the hair. We suggest you consult a professional if you wish to color the hair extenions. NOTE: Every bundle of virgin indian hair is coming from different donor so please color a small strand first before you try coloring the whole bundle. Also, do not try to bleach/dye too close to the track area of the bundles as the coloring chemicals can alter/loosens the tracks which can cause shedding issues.

Yes it will, but the more you straighten the hair the more you will lose the pattern. It is important to remember that the hair is no longer receiving any nourishment, so if you continuously straighten you will relax the pattern just like you would with your own hair.

The Straight Textures are measured true to length. The curly, Body Wave, Loose Wave, and Deep Wave are measured when hair is pulled straight.
