 Women have 99 problems, and we don't want your hair to be one of them. Well, we don't want you to ponder any longer on the quantity of hair you need. We are quite sure that you have wondered many times about this problem such as how many bundles I will need for a sew-in or maybe how many bundles I need with a closure or with a frontal. Fortunately, we all know how important your hair is to you at AZ Hair. So you don't have to worry today! We're here to inform you of all your most common questions regarding how many bundles to use, weft, closures, sew-ins, and more. Now let's jump straight into this! I. Buying the Right Amount of Bundles for a Full Sew-In  The number one question that our clients ask is, "How many bundles do I need for a full sew-in?" Firstly, the number of bundles will depend on how full you want the weave to be. There are other factors also that will determine how many hair bundles of weave a person requires to get the desired result. The question can’t have a specific answer because how full a woman desires depends on her personal choice. The answer varies based on the hairstyle, cut, length, size, and shape of your head. A few things to factor are the size of your head (seriously), how full you would like your hair (deep wave styles generally have a lot of hair as an example), whether are you using a closure/frontal and the overall type of hairstyle you are going for. II. The Factors You Should Consideration  A few factors go into choosing how many bundles of weft hair extensions you'll need for your desired look. The key is that it's your desired look, and it depends on the length of the hair to the size of your head. Both elements contribute to how the final style will look. To help you make the best choice for the look you want, take a look at the guide below: 1. Hair Length  Generally, all hair bundles have an approximate weight of 100 grams. Since the weight of the bundles of hair is the same, you have to think of how the weight is proportioned. Those who have selected lengthy hair bundles will need more hair. A good rule of thumb? the longer the length of your bundles, the more hair you're going to need. 2. Hair Textures Waves, Curls: The difference is in the density. Straight hair and curly hair have different densities, which have to be taken into account when determining how many bundles you need for a sew-in. Curly: You'll need 2-3 bundles. With curly hair, you can get away with fewer bundles because the hair is naturally more dense and full. Straight: You'll need 3-4 depending on length. straight hair has less density than curly hair, so for a silky, full look, you'll need a little extra. 3. Size of Your Head  Grab a tape measure and measure your head from ear to ear - this will help you answer the question of how many bundles you need. The circumference of an average person’s head is 21 inches to 24 inches. Based on the size of the head, decide how many bundles you need for a sew-in. The large the number, the more bundles you'll need. You have to adjust the number of bundles that need to be purchased. If it's on the smaller side, you might be able to get away with 2-3 bundles. 4. Frontal or Closure  If you use a frontal or closure to complete your look, the top pieces take up a bit of real estate on your head. Closures generally are available in different sizes. Most people choose 4 x 4 inches as the size of closures. You will require at least 2 bundles of closure to get any type of hairstyle. One thing you need to remember is the weft will be shorter when the hair is longer.  Most of your head will be covered by the frontals. Hence, you need 2-3 bundles based on the length and style. The bundles can increase or decrease depending on the shape and size of the head, haircut and style, and length. III. How Many Bundles Do You Need For A Sew-In With A Closure or A Frontal?  The closure and frontal era have come through for us ladies. Choosing 2 bundles with lace frontal will be sufficient for people purchasing 8-12 inches length of hair. You should pick 3 bundles if the hair length is between 14 to 18 inches. Similarly, 4 bundles will be required when the hair length is between 20 to 26 inches. All in all, you should choose 2 to 3 bundles for a naturally fuller look. Those who want more volume or fullness can pick 3 to 4 bundles. The number can increase depending on the texture, preferred length, and whether you are using a closure or the frontal hairpiece. We suggest that you should always purchase an extra bundle because, in urgency, there should not be issues due to fewer bundles. At some point in time, that bundle can surely come into use. Those wearing a closure or frontal should use more than 3 bundles for a fuller and thicker look. Additionally, the type of your hair will affect the best number of bundles that will be required to achieve the desired natural hairstyle. The number of bundles generally gets affected by the preferred style and texture of hair. Those who need a more tamed or thin hairstyle should choose less than 3 bundles. IV. Conclusion  We hope you now understand how many bundles you will require for a sew-in. Determine the desired length and texture of hair to determine the appropriate number of bundles. Remember that the number of bundles can be increased depending on the desired look and fullness of the hair.

 Shiny hair is absolutely gorgeous! There is something extraordinary about a fresh pack of extensions ready to install. The excitement of changing up our hairstyle is incomparable. Extensions are a great way to try out a new trendy hairstyle and add volume, length, or color, and they are a great protective style to keep our own hair out of the way for a while. However, after a while, like years, they started to lose some of their luster. They begin to look frizzy, dull, and lifeless. There are several ways that you can quickly restore the shine and luster to your hair extensions and extend the lifetime and wear time of your beloved tresses. So here are a few tips to help you! I. What is “Shine” Really?  Before we dive into how to get your extensions shiny, I want to make a quick note about what makes our hair shine in the first place. Shine ultimately comes down to the health of your extensions, namely the porosity.  Porosity deals with the cuticle layers of the hair and how close or far they are from the hair shaft. When you have high porosity, your layers are wide open. This level of porosity usually leads to split ends (yes, you can have split ends in your extensions), dullnes. The goal is to have an average porosity, where the cuticle layers are slightly opened, but close to the hair shaft. When these layers are close to the hair shaft, light is more easily able to reflect off of the hair. Of course, straight hair reflects the most, but curly hair can also be shiny. Moisture and shine go hand in hand. When your extensions have enough moisture, then they will be able to reflect more of the light and appear shinier. You can refer to this video below to have the comprehensive look at hair porosity as well as the 3 easiest ways to test the porosity of hair:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HaAd8syyaOE II. Restore Shine and Luster To Hair Extensions In The Beginning  Honestly, long-lasting hair extensions begin when you first purchase them. AZ Hair has a massive selection of affordable and high-quality extensions in a variety of curl patterns and colors. You can always choose us as your one-stop-shop for the best extensions. Now, let’s get into the 7 easy ways to restore the radiance back into your extensions. 1. Ways To Restore Shine and Luster To Hair Extensions: Trimming  Much like your own hair, human hair extensions will need routine trimming to ensure the health and longevity of the hair.  The ends of our hair are the oldest and come in contact with the environment much more than the hair closer to the scalp. By trimming away this older hair, you are increasing the number of healthy strands in your hair than broken and dull ones. And you will give your “more youthful hair" less dead weight that can cause strain and damage to your extensions. Your hair will be shorter, but it will be healthier and above all shinier. 2. Deep Conditioner  Applying a deep conditioner to your extensions once a week will not only restore the shine, but it will also strengthen and retain the moisture of your strands.  With a deep conditioner, the nutrients your hair needs can penetrate through the hair shaft and supply everything your hair needs to shine and refrain from being dry and brittle. Apply the deep conditioner in the middle of your hair to the ends, avoiding the roots. You do not want the deep conditioner to loosen up your install nor have conditioner get trapped in between your tracks. Trapped conditioner can do the reverse of good on your hair and scalp by causing product build-up and inhibiting bacteria from growing. Rinse your hair out thoroughly to reveal gorgeous and shiny extensions. 3. Ways To Restore Shine and Luster To Hair Extensions: Brush and Detangle Brushing is necessary to bring back the shine to your extensions. When we do not brush our extensions, the hair can get tangled, and tangled hair results in drier and more brittle hair. It is hard for light to reflect off of a rough surface. To avoid dryness and tangles, add a small amount of oil to your extensions and, with a paddle brush, thoroughly brush through every area of your hair. After a few strokes, you should immediately see a difference. Take the time daily to brush your hair in the morning and the evening before bed. Not only will you have to deal with less of a tangled mess come wash day, but you will also have shiny hair that people can see their reflection. 4. Skip A Day In Between Shampoos With extensions, we tend to go outside the norm of our regular hair routine. For example, some of us may wash our hair more often and with a different shampoo when we have extensions installed. When you shampoo your hair, the sulfates in the soap and the friction of your fingers remove some of the oils that are helping to retain your hair’s moisture and shine. The more you shampoo, the more your hair will feel dry, brittle, and appear dull. A simple fix is to wash your hair less frequently. If you are washing your hair every day, try to stretch to every other day. I recommend that a healthy frequency of washing your hair is once a week. Of course, if you are working out a lot or have a naturally oily scalp, there will be an exception. You can refer to this post to learn more about How often should you wash your hair For extensions, use a specialized shampoo specially formulated to protect the shine and lifecycle of your extensions. 5. Ways To Restore Shine and Luster To Hair Extensions: Hair Masks  Treat yourself and your extensions to a hair mask. Much like a deep conditioner, hair masks contain vital nutrients and ingredients to improve the shine and beauty of your extensions. Hair masks are typically thicker in consistency and are left on the hair for a more extended period to ensure the hair gets everything that it needs. There are a variety of different hair masks that natural and synthetic ingredients all for the benefit of your hair. Look for hair masks that contain egg, banana, avocado, and Dimethicone, which are ingredients that will help your hair to retain moisture and inevitably shine.

Coconut oil is excellent, but there are tons of wonderful oils to use on your hair to keep it shiny and healthy.  Argan oil, almond oil, avocado oil, and vitamin E oil are only a few of the oils that can be purchased online or at your local supermarket. The key is that these oils lock in the water or moisture in the hair strand. Oil and water do not mix, and they do not like to interact with one another. Therefore, when you seal your moisturized hair with oil, the water will remain “trapped” inside the hair strand giving you luscious tresses that shine effortlessly in the sun. 7.Ways To Restore Shine and Luster To Hair Extensions: Reduce Heat Tools  Heat styling tools like curling and flat irons strip the moisture out of our hair and leave it damaged and dull. Additionally, using heat styling tools on a consistent basis raises the porosity of your hair, which will dry it out faster. Take the path of least resistance and put your heat tools away. Your hair will thank you and glimmer all season long. Shine On!  With these tips and tricks to restore the shine in your hair, you will never have to be caught dead in dull, lifeless extensions. These tips will help at any time of the year. Imagine having shiny summer hair in the middle of winter. Wow! Whether you have curly or straight, naturally colored, or fantasy-colored extensions, you can follow these tips to have shiny, luxurious hair all the time.

 Washing your hair is commonly viewed as a straightforward, routine form of self-care. But the more that’s researched about how this seemingly simple task affects your hair health, the more confusion there seems to be about how you should wash your hair, what products to use, and how often to do it. How often should you wash your hair? The answer depends on your hair texture and type. Find out if you should be washing every day or once a week in our complete, informative guide! I. How Often Should You Wash Your Hair?  You’ve probably heard that washing your hair every day is a bad idea. Shampooing often strips your hair and scalp of its natural oils, causes frizz, and fades color fast. But going too long between washes has its own problems. Excess oil, clogged pores on the scalp, and product buildup can all result from washing too infrequently. So what is ideal frequency? The Short Answer  You should wash your hair 2 to 3 times a week on average. You might need to shampoo every day if you have fine, thin hair that tends to get oily fast. If you have thick, curly, or damaged hair, spacing your washes out a bit more is beneficial while fine, straight hair needs to be washed a lot more frequently than coarse, curly hair. You might only need to wash your hair 1-2 times a week if you have very thick, curly, or coily hair. But there’s more to it than these general recommendations. The Long Answer  Deciding how often to wash your hair starts with knowing your hair’s characteristics. However, in reality, there isn’t a one size fits all answer. How often you should wash your hair comes down to your hair type and lifestyle choices; these will vary for everyone. It could be anything from daily to weekly so it’s something that you’ll need to experiment with and try out for yourself. The only thing you need to be wary of is drying out your hair or causing damage. Regardless of your hair type it’s a good tip to only concentrate the shampoo at your roots to avoid drying out the lengths of your hair. Massage it into your scalp with your fingers and leave the shampoo to rest for 3 minutes before rinsing it off. This will make sure it has enough time to soak in and work its magic on any product buildup. II. How Often Should You Wash Dry Hair?  It’s best to wash dry hair less often than other hair types to make the most of your scalp’s natural oil. You could get away with washing your hair twice a week with the help of a little dry shampoo to keep your strands super nourished.Best Shampoo for Dry Hair: Redken AllSoft Mega Shampoo  All Soft Mega Shampoo improves manageability, suppleness and shine. The shampoo is formulated with Argan Oil to moisturise the roots and leave the hair silky soft. III. How Often Should You Wash Oily Hair?  If you can’t go a day without washing your hair that’s totally understandable but it’s important to make sure you’re not causing any damage. There’s nothing wrong with daily scrubbing as long as you use a gentle shampoo and try and keep heat to a minimum. Switch to a super nourishing shampoo and if you can, let your hair air dry.Best shampoo for Oily Hair: Davines Solu Shampoo  Solu Shampoo works to eliminate any product build-up and hair dirt.

You may also notice not having to wash your hair as often with this deeply cleansing shampoo. IV. How Often Should You Wash Curly Hair?  As the natural oils from your scalp take a little longer to work their way down curly hair types you may find washing your hair less often a better option. It is advised to wash curly hair one to three times per week. You might want to try co-washing too which is when you only use conditioner. They still contain a small amount of cleansing agents so your hair will feel fresh but it can be more gentle to your curls. It is advised to always ensure the cuticles of curly or coiled hair are closed, blow drying the hair with a diffuser attachment where possible.Best shampoo for Curly Hair: Kerastase Curl Manifesto Bain Hydratation Douceur Shampoo  Curl Manifesto Bain Hydration Shampoo refreshes the hair from scalp to length, removing dirt, impurities and product build-up. Formulated with Manuka honey and Ceramides to help hydrate and soften thirsty strands whilst nourishing curls. The gentle cleansing shampoo resists weighing the hair down, leaving curls revitalized and detangled. V. How Often Should You Wash Coloured Hair?  It’s best to wash coloured hair as little as possible if you want to keep it looking salon fresh; the recommended amount to be around two to three times per week. For anyone who washes their hair every day try and push it back to every two to give the dye a little more staying power. Ensure you use products that work for coloured hair as harsher formulas will strip it back. Washing too often can fade colour-treated tresses, so if you've got coloured hair try to shampoo no more than two to three times a week. To help maintain your hair's colour and vibrancy, use a shampoo designed especially for coloured hair.Best shampoo for Coloured Hair: L’Oréal Professionnel Serie Expert Vitamino Color Shampoo  Vitamino Color Radiance Shampoo will ensure the longevity of your hair colour. The product works to gently remove residue and impurities from the hair, without compromising your hair colour. The protective shampoo helps keep your colour looking vibrant and shinier for longer. VI. How Often Should You Wash Damaged Hair?  It’s best to wash damaged hair as little as possible to avoid drying it out any further or having to heat style it. Try and go as long as possible between washes and be as gentle as you can with your hair. Shampooing every five to seven days is recommended for extremely dry or damaged hair; this will allow your scalp to retain some of the hair’s natural oils. You also want to use nourishing products which are formulated to strengthen your strands and tame the split ends.Best shampoo for Damaged Hair: Olaplex Bond Maintenance Shampoo  Bond Maintenance, aka No4 Shampoo protects the hair from everyday stresses whilst repairing broken bonds; including damaged hair, split ends and frizz.

 Hair extensions are designed to help accentuate your look to give you an overall beautiful look. You don’t want to put extensions that are not blending in thus looking artificial. You certainly want that natural look and feel. But most of the time, there are cases of ladies who end up finding that their money spent on an expensive extension was futile as the extensions did not blend in perfectly. So what can you do if you find that your hair extensions don't blend in with your natural hair? In this article, we take you through the steps and measures that you can take to help correct things. I. Why Are My Hair Extensions Not Blend in?  Firstly, you need to understand why your hair extensions aren't blending well. There are multiple reasons why your extensions may not be blending. One of the most important factors we let our customers know is that everyone has a different hair type and cut. There are some ladies who will purchase clip-in hair extensions and easily attach them to their natural hair and have them look great on them in an instant. There are those who will have to do more to customize the hair extensions that they have bought to make them fit their hair perfectly well. Hair Extensions Not Blending  Why else may your extensions not be blending? We'll list a few common reasons: The incorrect weight was purchased for your hair type. The incorrect weight was purchased for your hair length. You have a unique haircut like a lob or blunt cut. II. What Can I Do To Make Hair Extensions Blend In Better?  As the old age saying goes – there’s always a unique solution to every problem so is it the same with hair extensions. There are specific tips and tricks that you can use depending on your very own scenario to help make your extensions to blend in naturally with your natural hair.  Here are some helpful tricks for you to follow when dealing with different hair types: 1. If You Have Short Hair:  If you have shorter hair, you will need to put in lots of work to help ensure that your extensions blend in as they should. Here are some tips and tricks that you can follow to get the desired results for short hair: Choose a heavy-weight set: if you got short hair it makes sense for you to choose a heavy extension set. You may wonder why a heavy set? Well, because you will need the extra wefts and hair in the set for you to achieve a natural transition in which your real hair ends and the extensions begin. Choosing an extension that’s too light in weight, result may be an unnatural look when you finally clip them in. You can trim or layer your extensions: This might sound a little bit disturbing for you to cut your expensive extensions but it is important for you if you want to achieve that natural look and flow. Just let an experienced hairstylist do the job for you or else you might just end up damaging the extensions. And don’t forget that the extensions are best trimmed when you have them installed on your hair. Also, just ensure that you count the wefts so that you know exactly where each weft goes. You will need to pick the right color of hair extensions: This one may look obvious but it goes to you if you are the kind of lady who likes to put on the ombre extension. If you have varied different shades in your hair, it is best to choose a color that matches the ends of your natural hair. If for instance, you have a darker root color, you will have the majority of the wefts applied at the crown of your head. Curl the hair extensions into your hair: this is yet another trick that works for many ladies out there. What you will do is take small sections of your extensions and then mix them with a section from your own hair and then curl them together. Well, this helps to greatly blur that line that differentiates your hair from the extension. 2. If You Have Thick Hair  There are ladies with thick hair who also complain of experiencing issues blending their extensions with their natural hair. Well, it is common to hear ladies who have thick and voluminous hair complain that their extensions are blending in well. For these ladies, they can go about this issue by doing the following things: Wash the extensions: washing the extension may just be the best thing to do. Washing the extension will help to make the extension get fluffed up and expand. This ultimately makes the hair extension set look and feel thicker and this helps to contribute to the extension blending in well. You will need to clip in the wefts a little higher on your head: By clipping the wefts in higher on your head or spreading them apart more it can help create a seamless blend. You may need to braid the bottom section of your hair before you clip in the larger wefts: people may easily notice that you are wearing hair extensions by looking at the bottom sections of your own hair that show underneath the extensions. You can avoid this by sectioning off the bottom of your hair from ear to ear, then braiding and securing it against your head with bobby pins. Go ahead and apply for your extensions like normal. This will help blend the extensions with your natural hair and you won't see those cheeky bottom laters of hair showing underneath the extensions. Style your hair: Curling your extensions after you've applied them can help create a seamless blend. Ensure you take a piece of your natural hair and a piece of the extensions in each curl for the best result. 3. If You Have Thin Hair  Ladies with thin hair usually complain of finding it difficult hiding the clips of their extensions in their thin hair. For these ladies, the can follow these tips and tricks: Tease your hair for grip. By making a solid base for the wefts by teasing your hair you will allow the clips to have something to hold onto. Place the clips on a safe zone: the safe zone in your hair is that place where the clips will not be easily seen. For ladies with fine hair, the safe zone is ideally that place just below the line of your eyebrows. Position your wefts accordingly: position the wefts as per the size and shape of your head and the type of hair. You can try positioning the wefts around until you find that ideal position that works for you. → Tease the crown of your head: Once you have applied your extensions and have your gorgeous new locks you might notice that the bottom of your hair feels a lot thicker than the top. If you tease the crown of your head it will add a little more volume to match in with the rest of your hair. 4. If You Have Blunt/lob Hair Cut  Most ladies with blunt or lob hair cut usually find it tricky blending their hair extensions. For them it makes sense to opt for thicker hair extensions as this ensures there is enough hair blends in perfectly well with your hair cut.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DMePx-KGtIY Just braid the bottom layer of your hair: this helps to hide the short layers of your own hair. It also helps to remove the blunt look of the haircut and allows the wefts to form part of the base of your hair.

 In the world of hair extensions, there are many different types to choose from. From clip-ins to tape-ins to halo hair to hand-tied wefts, all of these hair extensions not only have different methods of attachment, but also different durabilities and suitabilities for certain hair types.

 In the world of Hair Extensions, there are qualities of hair that are undeniably the best. If you think back, how many times have you colored your hair? Have you used any chemical products on your hair? Have you ever heated it due to curling or straightening or even blow drying? Maybe you’ve bleached your hair? Do you eat junk food? Why these questions are pertinent because we are used to adding various chemical products and heat treatments to our hair and we don’t think much about it. It is quite normal and could be a daily routine. However, women in Vietnam have hair that has not seen any chemicals, they retain the strength and luster of their natural hair. I believe after reading this post; you’ll begin to think that Vietnamese human hair extensions  may be for you after all. There aren’t many other types of hair that compare to the elasticity and endurance of Vietnamese hair extensions. Vietnamese human hair extensions have owned my heart for a while now. Therefore, I’d be happy to explain why you should make this hair the love of your life! I. Why Vietnamese Human Hair Extensions are The Best? 1. Wouldn’t What You Put Into your Body Affect your Hair?  Horrible eating habits, chemicals, and lack of exercise are some of the things Americans deal with every day that affect more than their ability to gain or lose weight. The ingredient you put inside of your body can and will be obvious in your appearance and the quality of your hair. For example, smoking cigarettes can cause early aging and wrinkles, and leaving greens out of your diet can cause your metabolism to slow down.  Women in Vietnam have hair that has not seen any chemicals nor let anything heated apart from the Sunlight touch their hair. They do not have an unhealthy diet or fast food which could make degeneration like our hair. Vietnamese women rarely have the issue of producing full heads of hair from broken bodies. Their diets consist of rice, greens, and vegetables which eventually control the quality of whatever they produce, as known as their hair. 2. It All Starts With Who Owns The Hair  You will rarely see Vietnamese women use unnecessary chemicals or products on their hair. They create most of the products they own from their environment. They also don’t tend to tie back their hair tightly into a ponytail or use excessive blow dryers. Their simple lives reflect the quality of their hair, which means, the hair retains a stronger kind of elasticity and strength. These qualities are perfect for any extensions you’d like in your head. Can we say “thank you”? II. Vietnamese Human Hair: Strict Production Process  Vietnamese women tend to grow their hair instead of getting it cut short in a bob cut. Long hair is valuable and commands a high rate. Combine long hair with hair that is virgin and you’ve got yourself a best seller that could bring high prices. Long hair is ideal for hair extensions as this hair can take color and curls to suit the purposes of the end customers.  The hair is taken and sent for processing where the strands are separated and aligned in the same direction so that it can be fastened from one end which will then be applied to your own hair. Good companies like AZ Hair Vietnam will always ensure that the cuticles face the same direction to have a better fall. Many of the companies (including AZ) that retail hair extensions made of Vietnamese hair sort it out by hand.

AZ Hair offers Vietnamese hair extensions so you know you are getting a great product when you purchase hair extensions from the website.  Vietnamese hair is thick, long, and beautiful and it is these three qualities that make Vietnamese hair in great demand. It is also for these same reasons that procuring this quality of hair is so rare. III. Vietnamese Human Hair Extensions Quality  Vietnamese Hair is lightweight yet very easy to maintain. They have the natural flow and fullness of real Vietnamese hair and are very durable when you compare them to hair from other countries. Vietnamese hair is naturally straight and this makes it perfect as you can add curls or waves to it. Also, Vietnamese hair extensions can come in longer lengths like 30”.

IV. Why Are Vietnamese Human Hair Extensions Prices Generally Higher than Others?  Vietnamese hair extensions are in high demand, and if you’re familiar with any marketing terminology at all, then you’ll know that order affects price and availability as well.  Sadly, availability dictates demand, demand affects the price, and so on. This means that even though Vietnamese hair extensions are in great demand, there is not enough to go around. This is why their prices are generally higher than others.  Don’t let cheap imitations fool you. It is the desirability of Vietnamese hair extensions that makes many suppliers want to imitate them and sell non – Vietnamese hair under that umbrella. If you are a hair extension veteran, you’ll probably feel the difference between Vietnamese hair extensions and other sources. It is lightweight, so you don’t feel the pull on your own hair as much. This is very important in the long run. You don’t want your own hair to fall out due to pulling the hair strands on your scalp. V. Conclusion  Now, you are getting it! Again, why is this hair in such high demand? Quality is everything! With the hair’s natural beauty, luster and durability there is nothing that this hair can’t withstand. Its ability to be colored and fried multiple times without us damaging the hair is something we all pray for even for our hair! Split ends don’t exist with Vietnamese hair extensions. Salons and vendors can’t wait to see this type of hair come out to sell to their clients and customers. They realize that this type of hair doesn’t come out very often, so when it does they try anything they can to get hold of it!

 Hair extensions come in just about every color, length, and style. But there are also differences that go deeper than what you see. On one side of the spectrum, you have single-donor unprocessed virgin hair extensions. This is the most natural option. On the opposite side of the spectrum, there is bulk straight hair. Don’t get confused by the different options for hair extensions. If you want to find out how bulk straight hair and single donor hair differ, keep reading! I. Definition of Bulk Straight Hair and Single Donor Hair  Before we get into the key differences between bulk straight and single-donor hair, we'd like to provide you with some background information on these two forms of hair. This section will provide you with more insights about these products. Let's look at what bulk straight hair and single donor hair mean. 1. What Is Bulk Straight Hair?  Simply put, Straight hair is the term used to indicate natural straight hair. Straight hair is completely natural hair, smooth, and straight without heat and chemical treatment. In Asian countries which are the main exporters of hair extension products, especially Vietnam, people are usually born with straight black hair. All of the above features make up the advantages of this hairstyle: straight, natural, smooth, and high quality. AZ’s Normal Straight Hair  Besides, there are also straight hair bundles with colors as well. They are already processed to be filled with colors in the factories, but the natural straight texture is still kept. In terms of weight, this hair type is much lighter than the wavy options yet has a more dramatic shine. Thanks to its smoothness and rather high quality, this style is one of the top choices of many girls. 2. What Is Single Donor Hair?  Single-donor hair extensions come from one person. They are never treated with dyes, bleaches, or chemicals—it’s just pure human hair. Because the hair comes from one source, the hair looks naturally uniform without treatment. The cuticles are all still intact in virgin hair and are running in the same direction.  Virgin hair offers you so much versatility. You can style the hair any way you would style your natural using heat tools or styling products. You can change your hairstyle often without the quality of the extensions suffering. However, because they are not dyed, these extensions only come in natural colors. II. The Differences Between Normal Straight Hair and Single Donor  Although many people have these two types of hair, not everyone understands the distinction between Single donor hair and regular straight hair. So, in the following paragraph, we'll show you the way to distinguish between the two through the following factors: number of donors, price, and popularity. 1. Number of Donors  As the name implied, single-donor hair extensions come from one person. While normal straight hair can also mean multiple donors as long as the hair is not processed in any way. For a normal straight, we gathered material from Vietnamese ladies aged 18 to 30, primarily mountainous women. This is the optimal age for women because this is when the amount of keratin (the component that maintains hair smooth) in the hair reaches its peak. 2. Hair Prices  There is a vast distance between the prices of normal straight hair and single donor hair. The fact is that single-donor hair is more expensive than naturally straight hair. It is understandable because single-donor hair is considered the most premium hair material in the current hair market. With single-donor hair, you’re paying for premium quality. 3. Popularity  Their difference is based on market demand. We can see that each hair type has its own strengths based on the difference between straight and single-donor, so it’s difficult to compare the popularity of these two hair types since they are both incredibly popular hair types on the market. After all, it is natural hair, which brings them an elegant look. Both of them provide the softest, silkiest, most luscious hair on the market. Everyone will want to know your hair care secrets! III.

AZ"s Hair Factory AZ's Hair Office IV. Conclusion  In general, the difference between single donor hair and normal straight hair can be based on the four factors above. If you own a hair business and want to purchase premium hair at a higher price, single-donor hair is a good option. Whereas, normal straight hair is a great choice for a classic hairstyle at a reasonable price.

 The term "Remy Hair" gets thrown around a lot. Is it a brand? A style? Are they good hair extensions? Bad hair extensions? What are Remy hair extensions? Many terms in the hair industry get mixed around and used for marketing, branding, and advertising. As a hair business owner, it is essential to understand the terms used in the industry. You will find some clients who will "test you" on your knowledge. Learning the specifics of commonly used hair terms like "Remy" is really important for your success. I take the time to write about this because our mission at AZ Hair is to help create hair brands for clients and we want them to be ready for every question sent their way. Before we go into what Remy Hair is, you will first want to understand the breakdown of the components of human hair. I. Components of Human Hair  The three most essential parts of a human hair strand are the Medulla, Cortex, and Cuticle. Understanding these elements will help you better visualize the human hair strand. Components of Human Hair 1. Medulla  The innermost layer of the hair shaft is the Medulla. A Medulla's shaft is nearly invisible and considered very fragile. Even today, scientists are not 100% certain of the Medulla's role but just that it exists. This portion of the hair is something you would never see or be able to feel. Of course, you could possibly see it with a high-powered microscope. 2. Cortex  The area of the shaft between the Medulla and Cuticle is the Cortex. A hair's Cortex is the thickest hair layer containing the pigment to give the hair its color. 3. Cuticle  The outside layer of a human hair strand is known as the cuticle. This term is used a lot in the hair extension business. Some people even name their brands with this term. The cuticle is an integral part of determining if the human hair is "Remy" vs. "Non-Remy." Dead cells that are overlapping create the actual cuticle portion of the hair. Despite being the outside layer, the cuticle does not affect the color of the hair as that is within the cortex. These dead cells give the hair strand strength and protection. II. What Is Remy Hair?  Now that you know the composition of a strand of hair, lets discuss how it plays a role in determining what remy hair is. Your natural hair lays in a downward position, and so do the cuticles in your hair. If you hold the bottom of your hair, wet your fingers, and run them up the strands, you will feel slight friction. Those are the scales of cuticles on the strands of your hair. If your hair extensions have all the cuticles running in the same direction,  you would have genuine Remy hair. Here is an example I made to give you a basic idea of Remy hair: So What About Non-Remy Hair?  Non-Remy is hair that does not have its roots aligned (Roots and tips not traveling in the same direction).  Since the cuticle runs in both directions it requires a higher concentration of acid. Eventually resulting in hair with very low moisture, leading to dry straw-like hair. III. How Is Remy Hair Collected?  The collection process can take place in a salon, lab, etc. This process is also when the collection of single-donor hair is critical.  You must band the hair before cutting the human hair to ensure the hair cuticles are facing the downward position. This method is the best method for collecting hair. As long as the strands stay in the same position during the shackling and wefting process, then you should have Remy hair extensions once the creation process is complete. After the vendor cuts the hair, it is then taken to a factory to be cleaned, processed, and bundled. IV. Why is Remy Important for Hair Extensions?  Have you ever worn hair extensions that would instantly matte up and tangle? That is the worst, right? When you are working with "Non-Remy" hair extensions, you will have strands of hair with cuticles going in both directions. This non-consistent direction will quickly cause problems with your hair extensions. With NON-REMY the hair cuticles are stripped usually from over processing and the hair is thrown together which causes tangling. To mask this some manufacturers use heavy silicone to make the hair appear shiny and healthy but beware as soon as you wash it the silicone comes off, and the hair mattes into a huge mess.   Non-Remy Hair Easy To Matte Up and Tangle  Manufacturers of hair extensions are more educated now and understand the importance of the entire process and the need for quality Remy hair. Let's see Why is Remy hair the best choice in hair extensions! 1. Provide The Natural Look  If you are looking to invest in hair extensions, you obviously want hair that looks as natural as your own. As mentioned, the method in which Remy hair is collected provides a smooth texture and a natural look and feel that is comparable to your own hair. 2. Remy Hair Has Cuticles Remain Intact  As Remy hair goes through little processing and the cuticles remain intact, Remy hair extensions are less prone to tangling and becoming matted. As Remy hair extensions are free of silicone, they remain naturally silky and soft. 3. Can Treat The Same Way Like Your Own Hair  You can treat Remy hair extensions the same way you would your own hair. The hair is far more versatile when it comes to styling - you can straighten and curl your hair however you wish, tie it up however you like, and can even color it if you so desire. 4. Blend Completely With Your Natural Locks  If you are searching for hair extensions that look realistic and blend completely with your natural locks, Remy hair is the best choice for you. Unlike other human hair extensions, it is long-lasting and easy to work with. V. How to Avoid Non-Remy Hair? 1. Avoid non-reputable Alibaba  Alibaba is a popular B2B platform that helps connect suppliers with buyers. Alibaba makes it easy enough to find a wholesale supplier in every field, and hair extensions are not exceptional. In fact, there are many reports of scams on Alibaba, as well as other issues such as customer service, packaging, shipping times, and more. I would advise you to purchase hair extensions from a verified hair supplier such as AZ Hair Vietnam - the first Vietnamese hair company that has been verified by Alibaba. 2. Call/Email The Company  Contacting a hair company before a purchase is great because it allows you to become educated about that company’s processing practices. Ask questions like, “How is your hair processed?” “Are the cuticles kept aligned and intact?” or any other inquiries you may have. If the phone agent sounds unsure, I wouldn’t recommend making a purchase. 3. Check Out The Reviews  Because all the reviews on a company’s web page will be positive, check out their Trustpilot or Google reviews. These reviews are left by customers and are not managed by the company. 4. Purchase Extensions Sample  Many hair companies allow you to buy a sample, which is either going to be a small strip of a bundle, or they may allow you to purchase one bundle at wholesale price. Purchasing a sample will enable you to see and feel the hair quality when the hair is fresh out of the packaging. However, it will not give you the same results as having a full head of hair installed for a few weeks. Have a question about Remy Hair? Please leave it in the comments below!
