Frequently Asked Questions
What is virgin hair?
Virgin hair is hair that has not been altered from its natural state, coloured or chemically processed.The "virgin hair" is collected by tying the hair before cutting it to maintain the direction of the cuticle. After the hair has been cut and collected it can be made into various extension types such as sewn onto a weft, clip on wefts, pre-bonded tips, made into wigs or left in bulk form (also known as no ends).
What is Remy hair?
Remy hair or Remi hair is the term used when each strand of hair is perfectly aligned from root to tip with the cuticles facing in the same direction - this is only possible when the real human hair has been cut from a pony tail and not mixed or unaligned.

What is the difference between Superior and Premium hair?
Superior hair is of a higher quality as it is available in more virgin colours up to colours 4/6/8 and uses less colour processing to achieve lighter colours.
Premium hair offers endless, hair type, extension type, colour, styles and length options as well as highlights, ombre and dip-dye techniques at an affordable price.
What is the difference between the hair types?
- Indian: Real Indian hair is thick but it isn't heavy. It feels light and airy especially after being washed.
- Russian/European: A great choice if you have fine hair, favoured by European woman as the hair type is light in density and can take colour very easily.
- Brazilian: Brazilian hair extensions are extremely versatile. The hair comes in all different styles such in straight, wavy, very curly/spiral curls. Real human Brazilian hair is medium to thick density. Great if you have thick hair or are wanting to add volume.
- Malaysian: This is a good alternative to European hair as it is also fine but also more silky hair, it's naturally straight and will not kink or wave.
What is the extension type with the least amount of damage?
Nano Tip remy human hair extensions, Micro rings or micro loops are best as no glue is involved in the application process. The tips can all be removed safely with very little damage to the roots of your natural hair.
I ordered 2 packs, why have I only received 1?
We try to be flexible with our hair extensions and so that you can buy your real human hair extensions to suite your needs. Our flexibility applies to the styles, weights and colours. Your pre-bonded tips order may arrive as 1 pack, 2 packs or 3 packs however, the total weight will be correct. For example, if you order 2 packs of 50g from the website, you may receive them as 1 pack but the total weight will be 100g.
The total order may be packaged differently depending on our supplier and also for ease of shipment. Our hair is sold by the weight, therefore you will receive the correct weight for your order.
