Are you buying a hair extension? Having determined the correct extension type, the next step is to decide between synthetic hair and human hair.
Many shoppers, especially beginners, are still confused about the difference between the two and which one is best. This has become more difficult because many sellers mislabeled the delivery and delivery labels and were untrue or opaque. They try to mislead you. This is why we must inform you of the two hair types, the characteristics of each hair, and the normal price range.
SEAM Hair attaches great importance to this issue and allows you to understand the products you are buying clearly and easily. You can rest assured that all the products in our company are 100% correct and will not confuse you. This is why we are discussing the difference between human hair and synthetic hair. Armed with this knowledge, you can not only make an informed decision about which extension to buy and sell, but you can also identify false labels.
As for choosing between various hair types, we have some suggestions. Although the final decision is entirely up to you.
It is important to note that there are different qualities of synthetic hair on the market today. There have been many improvements in the production of synthetic strands. By 2021, the technology for producing synthetic hair has far surpassed the technology used in the late 2000s.
For example, you can treat more expensive synthetic materials with low to medium heat. This is something you could not do before. As a result, synthetic hair extensions are getting better and better, and high-quality hair extensions look pretty good. Whether they reach the quality of real human hair is questionable.
Let us turn to human hair. Real hair will last longer and you can dye, bleach, condition, curl or treat it at any reasonable temperature. In addition, real hair will always blend better with your own hair. The simple fact that it is real makes the world different. If they were Remy, no one would doubt that you were wearing extensions. On the other hand, synthetic hair is fake, which is why it is also harder to blend.
Like synthetic locks, different types of human hair have different qualities. The standard line is of medium quality and looks good. However, the factory will treat them with special chemicals to remove the stratum corneum. After that, the staff will coat the damaged part with a silicone base.
This does reduce tangles, but not in the long run! Once the silicone coating disappears, these extensions will be trimmed into tangles and quickly damaged. After a wash, you're done. We call high-quality human hair Remy. For the strand called Remy, the cuticle should remain intact. The factory must also arrange the hair in the same direction to reduce tangles, but only a few people do this. To create a true Remy extension, the factory must use only the best hair. In essence, it is the main content of the hair extensions field quality.
Summary
The main difference between the two hair types is price and quality. The look and feel of the hair and the ability to dye, style, blend, and change texture also depend on the type of hair. Therefore, if you are hesitant about whether you should use synthetic or real Remy hair extensions, check out the characteristics of both. This should help you lean to one side or the other.
The goal of synthetic fibers is to simulate hair. Synthetic hair ingredients include about 10-15 different chemicals (depending on color and manufacturer) and "flexible" plastics. Then use a special machine to mix and process the ingredients to shape them into the hair.
The factory uses several different fibers and materials, usually poly filament, low-grade acrylic, and polyester. Before reaching the product stage, these fibers have to undergo a lot of chemical and mechanical processing. Low-quality synthetic fibers look very plastic and waxy! On the other hand, higher quality hair will look more like human hair, with some luster and texture.
If you want to purchase synthetic extensions, it is best to use the clip-in method. The reason for that is the longevity of the hair, which is pretty short. So it is wiser to adopt a method that is not as permanent as tape.
In addition, if you take a longer-lasting method, synthetic hair may irritate your scalp.
The highest quality hair extensions are made from 100% real human hair that has not been chemically or mechanically processed. Manufacturers sometimes even manually inspect each batch of products to see if the skins are aligned.
The hair collected by the factory from the donor can be made into any extension type. There are usually areas that specialize in selling hair, and there are many women who sell hair at low prices. Then the workers wash, process, and sew the wigs. Due to this meticulous process, human hair extensions are more expensive, but you can get quality and longevity.
You can know what we do for the real Remy human hair.
One of the main reasons women choose synthetic hair over Remy is price. You can buy bundles of synthetic hair for as little as a few dollars on eBay. But, just imagine how bad this hair quality is to sell at such a low price.
Of course, a slightly more expensive composite extension must mean much better quality, right? Maybe you even got something close to a human hair? Sadly, you will be wrong. The price of synthetic hair may be as much as real hair unless you buy a higher-priced "premium" brand.
Price Range: $2 to $45+
Remy extensions are generally slightly more expensive than other extensions, but this is due to the complex manufacturing process that ensures the highest quality. Like all other products, high quality and high prices go hand in hand. However, if you consider the duration of Remy's expansion, the price will eventually be affordable.
For example, SEAM Hair's hair extension (made from 100% real Remy human hair) starts at only about $20. Why is it so cheap? These are manufacturer wholesale prices and there is no third-party profit. Therefore, the main advantage of synthetic hair is price, which is not the case anymore.
Price Range:$20 to $1,000+
The average price of synthetic extensions for 20-inch weft is $25, while the average price of Remy extensions is $50 to $75 for the same weight.
Although synthetic strands may be cheaper, you must buy new strands more frequently. In the end, you will pay a lot of money for a much lower-quality extension. This is why we always recommend that you invest in Remy hair, which is worth it in the long run.
The life expectancy of synthetic hair is not so optimistic. If you can wear the synthetic extension for more than two months, consider yourself very lucky. This type of hair will never last. Man-made fibers cannot cope with daily use. Such hair extensions will be tangled a lot, and eventually, become a huge blocky bundle. That's not something you can wear. There is no way to restore the hair. Therefore, once you notice that synthetic extensions are getting harder to straighten out and start to get messy, you are almost at the end of the world. Soon, the hair will fall from your head into the trash can. If you want longevity, stay away from synthetic hair.
Hair Lifespan:2-3 months
Remy hair extensions are very durable, which makes them perfect for people who want their hair to last for a long time. No matter which hair extension type you choose, you can expect to wear it for at least three months for inferior hair. If you take care of the extension cord with extra care, the life span can be significantly extended. This is the great advantage of Remy hair.
Hair Lifespan:3-24 months
The synthetic average lifespan is 2 to 3 months. But the real hair extensions can last 3 to 24 months on average, depending on hair quality and maintenance.
Although some newer, higher-quality synthetic hair extensions have some heat resistance, which allows you to change their texture, most cannot be curled or straightened. Synthetic fibers are plastic, so imagine what happens when you heat them up! The fiber simply melts and becomes a mess. Not only does this completely destroy the expansion, but it is also very dangerous.
However! If price is not a real advantage, is there any advantage to a synthetic extension? Since synthetic fibers are man-made, factories can process and manufacture them in any way! This means that they have a certain texture and style.
For example, if you buy curly synthetic hair extensions or wigs, the curls will remain the same even after washing, so there is no need for styling. This is great when you don't have a lot of time or money to spend on new hairstyles every day. Another advantage is that there will be no forks because the strands are not real.
Can I curl or style human hair extensions?
Hair extensions made from real human hair can be straightened, curled, or wavy. There are really no restrictions on textures. So, if straight or curly extensions bore you, just grab your popular tool and revamp it. If you want to take special care of your hair, don't overheat it. Otherwise, you may shorten the life of your hair.
We can supply wavy hair already!
Synthetic hair can be tone or dye?
If you are considering using conventional hair dye to change the color of synthetic hair extensions, please know immediately that it does not work at all. This will only destroy the hair extension. Basically, the synthetic thread is not suitable for coloring, the only way is to use acrylic ink.
This is a DIY method that involves acrylic, alcohol, and may mess up your home. You should know that the results were not so good. In addition, there is no way to change from a darker color to a lighter color. So, if you have black or brown extensions, forget about coloring altogether.
Can I tone or dye Remy hair extensions?
Although the Remy extension has a variety of different shades and even custom colors, some women decided to change it. This is possible for human hair, and it is a great way to spice up your old hair.
However, professionals should do this! Many things can go wrong, from dry hair to split ends. Hairdressing professionals will know exactly what to do and change the color of hair extensions in a safe and non-invasive way. Or, just get a colored Ombre extension and let the hair seller handle the rest.
Now that you have an in-depth understanding of synthetic hair and human hair, you can better understand both and understand what is best for you. Our suggestion is to choose real human hair. Many women want to save money, so they buy synthetic prostheses. Sooner or later they will be disappointed because the hair looks terrible and does not last long.
If you have a tight budget and don't want to spend a lot of money, synthetic hair is a good alternative to human hair extensions. It is very cheap and very suitable for special occasions or parties, they are not that good for daily use. If you need a cool wig or colorful wig for a party and don’t plan to wear it all the time, then synthetic hair will do.
Nevertheless, their lifespan is almost not as long as real hair, so if you want to wear them all the time, you will need to buy new synthetic hair all the time!
We at the SEAM Hair team have been working hard to provide our customers with Remy extensions that are reasonably priced and of high quality. There is no reason to sacrifice the appearance and quality of the extension for price.
The final decision is entirely up to you. That being said, we assure you that once you try Remy hair extensions, you will never want to go back to synthetic hair!
