5 Tips for Choosing Human Hair Bundles

The hair extensions industry is huge, and it can be a little overwhelming for customers who want to try human hair extensions. Exyhair can help you make the best and most informed decision to keep in mind when investing in human hair extensions. It helps to understand some of the techniques and terminology used in the hair extension business. Choosing the right human hair weaves can significantly improve the appearance and health of your hair. After reading these tips, you will have a valuable and wonderful experience.

Determine the Hair Type

Virgin Hair: This is the highest quality as it is unprocessed and comes from a single donor. It‘s durable, can be styled and colored, and has a natural look.

Remy Hair: The weight of the strands can vary from one vendor to another. There are also some terms you need to be familiar with when it comes to 100% human Remy hair.

Single-pull strands have at least 50% of the strand length intact, and the rest of the strand length will vary.

Note: This is the industry standard. Double-pull strands cost a little more and have 100% of the strand intact from the weft to the end of the strand. However, a good strand weight should be between 3.5 and 4.0 ounces.

Non-Remy Hair: Usually collected from various sources, the cuticles may not be aligned, leading to tangling and matting over time. 

Select the Right Texture

Straight or Curly: Choose a texture that matches or blends well with your natural hair. If you plan to leave some of your hair out, ensure the texture is a close match to your own.

Body Wave, Loose Wave, Deep Wave, Kinky Curl: These variations offer different styling options, so consider your styling preferences and maintenance capabilities. 

Consider the Hair Origin

Texture Preference:

Choose Brazilian hair for a luxurious and versatile feel.

Choose Peruvian hair for a silky texture.

Choose Malaysian hair for a soft, silky appeal.

Consider Cambodian hair for natural thickness and durability.

Styling Options:

Brazilian hair lends itself to a variety of looks, from straight to curly.

Peruvian hair holds curls extremely well for an elegant look.

Malaysian hair is great for a smooth, supple look.

Cambodian hair has a coarser texture and more volume.

Hair Weight:

Brazilian hair is known for its natural density and elasticity.

Peruvian hair is lighter weight, perfect for those who prefer a lighter weight.

Malaysian hair has a fuller look due to its thickness.

Cambodian hair has a coarser texture and slightly more volume.

Understanding the differences between Exyhair's Brazilian, Peruvian, Malaysian, and Cambodian hair extensions will allow you to make an informed decision based on your preferences and desired style. Explore the unique qualities of each collection at Exyhair and embark on a journey to find the best extensions for your personal beauty. 

Check the Hair Length and Weight

Length: Measure your desired length carefully. Remember that curly and wavy hair can appear shorter than straight hair of the same length.

Weight: Hair bundles typically come in 100 grams (3.5 ounces) per bundle. For a full head, you might need 2-3 bundles for shorter lengths and 3-4 bundles for longer lengths.

Verify the Quality

Check for Shedding and Tangles: Gently run your fingers through the hair to check for excessive shedding and tangling. High-quality hair will shed minimally and not tangle easily.

Inspect for Lice and Nits: Ensure the hair is free from lice and nits. Reputable suppliers will provide clean, well-maintained hair.

Smell: High-quality hair should not have a strong chemical smell. If it does, it might have been processed heavily, which can affect its longevity and health.

By following these tips, you can ensure that you choose high-quality hair bundles that will give you a natural, beautiful look and last for a long time.
