The Difference Between Remy Hair and Virgin Hair

 

























Brazilian hair is known to be one of the most popular makes of pure and natural hair extensions in the world. 100% virgin unprocessed Brazilian hair blends amazingly well with just about every hair type, being naturally compatible with both African-American and Caucasian hair. It lasts a very long time with proper care and nourishment and is one of the most cost effective types of real hair extensions. 

A question that is often asked by prospective purchasers of 100% unprocessed Brazilian hair is “What is the difference between Virgin hair and Remy hair?”

 

It is a common misconception that Remy is a brand name applied to some hair extensions. In fact the term refers to certain characteristics and features of a type of hair. The term Remy is used to describe extensions where all the hair cuticles are lined up and pointed in the same direction - roots at the top and ends at the bottom - just like your natural hair is already. This should therefore be less liable to matting and tangling and the hair should be silky soft.

Virgin hair is, very simply, hair that has not been chemically processed in any way. It is completely natural and unprocessed.  It’s free from any chemicals such as relaxer, perm, silicone, or color dyes.  There has been no damage to the cuticles or the true structure of the hair.   

From these descriptions you can see that Virgin hair can also be Remy hair if the Virgin hair has correctly aligned cuticles and Remy hair can also be Virgin hair as long as it has not been chemically processed.

On the other hand you can have Remy hair that has been colored or curled and so would no longer be Virgin. Or you can have Virgin hair with non-aligned cuticles which means it would not be Remy. I hope you followed that easily enough.

Both Virgin and Remy hair are more expensive than the cheap non-cuticle hair extensions available. The excellent reason for this is that non-cuticle hair is simply sub-standard and will not give the look or silky soft feel of the best quality 100% virgin unprocessed Brazilian hair.

Virgin Brazilian hair extensions often come with a slight wave that can easily be made dead straight with ceramic straighteners and then return to wavy after being washed. Being natural, they come in only dark shades but can be coloured the same way as one would color live and growing hair. Unlike processed hair these Virgin hair extensions are naturally tangle-free, silky, strong and glossy. They are as close as it is possible to get to growing hairs and can be curled and straightened, or bleached and dyed and keep looking and feeling great for a very long time.

For a long time 100% virgin unprocessed Brazilian hair has been a well-kept secret of celebrities and their stylists. Now it is available and affordable to all women who want to buy and use gorgeous looking 100% natural and Virgin hair.
