Raw hair Vs Virgin Hair
Raw Hair vs. Virgin Hair
• Raw Hair: 100% unprocessed, cut directly from a donor with all cuticles intact and aligned. It hasn’t been steamed, chemically treated, or altered in any way. Raw hair is the highest quality and lasts the longest (3+ years with proper care). It has a natural texture (straight, wavy, or curly) and blends well with natural hair.
• Virgin Hair: While still considered high quality, it has often been steamed or lightly processed to create uniform textures (e.g., body wave, deep wave). It hasn’t been chemically treated (e.g., dyed or permed) but isn’t as pure as raw hair.
Best Raw Hair Types
The best raw hair depends on the look and durability you want:
• Raw Indian Hair – Soft, lightweight, and naturally voluminous. It holds curls well and blends with most textures.
• Raw Vietnamese Hair – Thick, strong, and naturally straight or slightly wavy. It’s durable and great for sleek styles
• Raw Hair lasts 5+ years with proper care because it’s completely unprocessed, with cuticles intact and aligned. It maintains its natural strength, softness, and luster over time.
• Virgin Hair typically lasts 1–2 years, depending on care, because it has usually undergone steam processing to achieve specific textures, making it slightly less durable than raw hair.
Raw hair is the best choice for longevity
