What's the difference between Remy hair and Indian Hair, I went to the BSS, Indian hair has finally hit Cali., I asked her how much, I just about dropped to the floor when she said $210.00, I asked her what was the next best thing, and they pulled out some Remy hair that was $40.00 a pack...so what's the diff:confused:
 
Indian hair is straight for the source or the country without any processing done to the hair which means you can color it and treat it like real hair. It also does not tangle and has incredible body.

Remy is indian hair but a cheaper version of Indian hair in that it may be mixed with other hair and processed with chemicals which may make it hard to color and manage it also does not last as long as better quality hair. The hair that is $210. can be used for a least 2 years before you throw it out. The other hair you will find that it sheds and is not as easy to deal with.

Some invest in expensive hair because they know they can use if over, and over again and do anything they want to it. Try the cheaper hair first and see how you like. :)
 
The 2 terms (remy/indian) are totally different. Indian hair generally refers to human hair that is cut from the heads of women who are of Indian (real India not American Indian) heritage.

Remy is a term that discribes the condition of the cuticles of the hair. It means the cuticles of the hair are still in tact and all going in the same direction. If you cut 2 strands off someones head at the root and then turned one upside down then the hair would no longer be remy b/c the cuticle direction would be mixed up. But with Remy you cut the hair and left it all in the same direction. Just about all hair that is processed (yaki, specific curl pattern) is non remy b/c it is difficult to process hair and correctly leave the cuticles in the same direction. When cuticles are mixed up that is what causes hair to tangle. To avoid this problem MOST processed hair has had the cuticles removedThis is why real Remy hair is a good thing.

So you can have both remy INdian and non remy INdian
