Remy Hair is human hair that is collected directly from a single hair donor. It is also referred to as Cuticle Hair or virgin hair. It is the softest and most natural hair on the market. The majority of human hair sold in the industry is non-cuticle hair. The hair cuticle has been stripped by using an acid-bath. However, with Remy hair, this is not done, so the hair cuticle is intact, therefore the hair is stronger. It also makes the hair softer and more natural and makes it so it does not tangle which allows it to be ideal for longer wear.

The straight hair texture is the natural state of the Indian Hair as it comes from the donor. The straight hair texture will wave up when wet.

If you order a unit and select Wavy or Curly texture - that is a processed texture that is put into the hair with a perm for the wave or curl. You should apply heat products sparingly as it may over process the hair since it has a permanent perm already put into the hair. The only units that can be hot curled or flat ironed without concern for over-processing are the Straight hair textures or any unit that states that it is naturally curly or wavy.

Because a perm is used to process the wave or curl to make it permanent, therefore, applying heat to that perm could over process and/or damage the hair if you do it excessively.

Single Drawn hair is hackled and trimmed on one side. All the hair is in one direction, for example, all the roots will be at one end of the processed bundle. This high quality process allows for a very small percentage of hair to be outside the specified length of the bundle. This processing keeps the hair from tangling after it is bleached or dyed. This is very popular in Europe with the high quality hair extension who prefer this type of processing for their products. This hair is collected from Temples (particularly ladies hair). Double Drawn hair is hackled and trimmed on both sides and it will have uniform sizes. This can be prepared from Temple cut hair, which is non Remy, or from comb waste, which is collected in villages and in houses. This hair is used for manufacturing of Wigs, Hair Pieces, and Men's Toupees etc.
