Quick Refresher (No Jargon)

Need the full breakdowns? We’ve already covered them—bookmark these:

These insights come from my 14+ years as a licensed cosmetologist and celebrity hair stylist, working hands-on with raw and virgin hair daily.

 

Why Virgin Hair Stays in Demand

Long-Wearing Quality

Unprocessed cuticles mean fewer tangles and a natural sheen—ideal for virgin hair extensions that need to look believable on busy days.

Styling Freedom

From silk press to soft waves, premium bundles take heat well and hold a finish. (Coloring? Start with high-quality hair and follow care guidelines.)

Authentic Texture

Whether you prefer Indian hair extensions for their airy movement or more defined curls, texture should look like it grew from your scalp.
