While surfing the internet this weekend, I came across an article from Madame Lefigaro. Although a bit old, it's still relevant regarding the different qualities of hair extensions, which I absolutely wanted to share with you.
When searching for a product online, the first instinct we all have is to compare prices! However, as this article very well points out, there's a lot to sift through in the extensions market, so don't get fooled.
What Type of Hair Extensions to Choose: Natural or Synthetic?
The choice of hair extensions isn't random; it's a significant investment, and you need to be well-informed before diving in.
First, beware of synthetic extensions: unbeatable price but the result... how should I say... often disastrous! Indeed, synthetic clip extensions, as their name suggests, are made of plastic. They will therefore be very shiny most of the time, and more often than not, everyone will notice something's off with your hairstyle J
They can be used very occasionally but are hardly recommended. Furthermore, it's out of the question to straighten, color, or curl them. Use a flat iron, and they'll be fit for the trash. So, unless your hair is perfectly straight like your extensions, the result won't be optimal.
At ExtensionPointCom, we've decided not to offer you this type of product and to only offer 100% natural hair extensions.
Not All Natural Hair Extensions Are Equal!
The choice of natural hair is clearly the best choice! A good natural hair will have the same appearance as your real hair, and most importantly, you can treat it as such: straighten, curl, color!
But beware, there's a bit of everything here too. Between those who claim to have Remy Hair AAAAAAA and those who mix natural and synthetic hair, it's not easy to find your way.
Beware of these classifications, there's no certification body distributing the A's! What indicates that a site's AAA is worse than another site's AAAAA? Absolutely nothing!
So, what's the best way to know the quality of the extensions?
I want to tell you, the best way is to test, but on the internet, it's not very easy.
So, the first step is to check online reviews! Sure, on the internet, it's mostly the dissatisfied who express themselves, but if you find quite a few positive reviews, that's a good sign. Also, make sure you can exchange: upon receipt, open the package, touch the hair, and if it's not right, return it!
Indian, Russian, Chinese: Which Natural Hair to Choose?
The article I recommended is quite clear on this subject. The hair closest to European hair is Indian hair, which is what we use.
Some of you have surely heard of Russian hair being of better quality. Not at all! Quality Remy Hair Indian hair has nothing to envy to Russian hair. Additionally, this market is still new and under-supplied, which doesn't allow for consistent quality over time for the moment.
Conclusion: Do Your Research Before Buying!
You understand, there are many players in this market, and quality is not always guaranteed. Do your research before buying, contact customer service, and read online reviews.
Our advisors are at your disposal to guide you in choosing your clip extensions, and above all, you have 15 days to exchange if the quality of our natural hair extensions doesn't suit you.
But if we've existed for over 5 years and more than 40,000 customers have already trusted us, there's a reason!
