I recently attended a local hair event and there was a spokeswoman from a major hair company, I’m not going to say the companies name here but it beings with S**** (PM me if you want to know)
Anyway she told us that all the hair brands that sell weaves, braiding hair etc ALL originate from this one company (S****) in China, their factory is huge about the size of Central London about 600 sq miles (I know hard to believe!) Apparently all of the other major hair companies buy the hair from them and re-package it, so if you are a loyal customer of a particular brand it doesn’t make a difference as it is all the same hair. Once the hair is brought back to their own individual factory they may treat it in different ways i.e. coatings etc...
ALSO when the packets say 100% Human hair (wigs and weaves included) it is NOT human hair it is about 25% HH the rest are synthetic fibres, there is just not enough HH to cater to the black hair shop customers to that degree. The only hair that is 100% human hair is Brazilian, Indian and European hair (this is the hair you can dye if you wish) this hair has literally come off another human head this is why it is so expensive £120 compared with £20, the other is factory made human hair (think real diamond and laboratory made diamond).
Shocking
