Tip 1: How to Check Hair Extensions Quality

Our first tip for how to check hair extension quality is to look at what type of quality hair the extensions of made from. Our Unprocessed Virgin Hair are made from real, Virgin human hair, which is regarded as the highest quality of hair in the industry.

As a general rule of thumb, Remy human, clip in hair extensions usually last anywhere between three to six months- or more! However, this all depends on the wearer; how many times you wear them and how you look after your extensions. Although, synthetic hair extensions don’t tend to last as long.

Tip 3: How to Check Hair Extension Quality

Tip 4: How to Check Hair Extension Quality

Lastly, you can check hair extension quality by the amount they shed. If you’re hair extensions are shedding on a daily basis and every time you put a brush through them, then the quality of the extensions aren’t that great. To stop hair extensions from shedding, we recommend swapping your standard hair brush for one that’s designed to be used on extensions, for a much kinder brushing.
