Remy hair is considered as the highest grade of hair extensions. The hair used in these extensions is humans’, not synthetic hair. The word “Remy” refers to human hair harvested from scalp and the cuticles are kept intact. Remy human hair extensions flow in one direction because of cuticles pointing in the same direction, making the hair silkier and softer. The other advantage of Remy hair is that it is less prone to tangles and knotting.
Other methods of hair extensions in Melbourne simply involve shaving of hair from the head and put in a bag without regard to the cuticle layers hair line up. These other methods may also treat the hair thus degrading the quality and making them weak.
Human hair is more preferred because they can be dyed, styled, curled, straightened and washed just like normal hair. Synthetic hair extensions cannot be treated like natural extensions as heat cannot be used to treat them. This artificial hair can easily be detected because of its not so real shine and these extensions do not blend so well with natural hair.
Most hair extensions are Remy at the time of collection, but few companies use harsh treatments for processing, thus ruining the cuticles. Silicone is used to make them appear soft only to experience tangling and matting after few washes or after silicon wears off. So the extensions should be checked carefully before buying them.
