Synthetic Hair Explained

When buying synthetic hair you should be aware of the following:
Why are some fibres more expensive than others, when their appearance is identical.

Factors to consider
The quality of the fibre used to create the product
The thickness of the fibre used - The finer the strands the softer the hair
Standard of production - more expensive fibres undergo more labour intesive production

All these factors will be reflected in the price

Although hair of different qualities may appear to look the same, the difference will become apparent upon wearing.

Kanekalon

Both these fibres have the following benefits

Bounce Back

When you pull down the curl on a good quality synthetic fibre, it will bounce back into place. After washing, no styling is necessary and curls 'bounce back' into place.

Sleep Easy
Allows the wearer to enjoy a good nights sleep
Soft and does not mark the skin.


Touchably Soft
Feels good to touch
Less abrasive - makes braiding more comfortable

Other cheaper synthetic fibres e.g. P.P. synthetic fibre is very cheap to buy and is not flame retardant so after braiding the ends of the hair can be burnt for neat finish.
 

Code of Care

2 - Wash in lukewarm water
3 - Apply a small amount of mild shampoo to the hair
4 - Rinse thoroughly
5 - Gently comb out with fingers or a wide toothed comb
