Raw hair is a term used for hair that is both 100% REMY and 100% Virgin. It is unprocessed and retains the cuticles intact and aligned, making it pure and natural. This hair is as it was on the donor, cleaned, washed, and conditioned without any chemical, heat, or steam processing. Raw hair’s natural qualities and durability make it a top choice for those seeking long-lasting, high-quality hair.
We do not grade our hair because it is raw and unprocessed. Grading is typically used for processed hair.
REMY Hair vs. Virgin Hair vs. Raw Hair
- REMY Hair: This refers to hair where the cuticles are intact and aligned unidirectionally from root to tip, maintaining its natural integrity.
- Virgin Hair: This is hair that has never been chemically processed or color-treated, maintaining its natural state without any alterations.
- Raw Hair: Hair that is both 100% REMY and 100% Virgin. It is unprocessed and retains its natural state, offering the highest quality and durability.
Raw hair is the purest form of human hair available, providing unmatched quality and longevity. Raw Indian hair, in particular, is favored for its natural lighter and darker brown shades, making it ideal for bleaching and coloring. This hair comes in natural straight, wavy, and curly textures and can be heat-styled to hold any desired look. Each bundle is unique, reflecting the natural variations from the donor.
If the cuticle is intact, the hair will not tangle, much like our skin protects our bodies. Remy hair appears smoother, shinier, and healthier, even after multiple washes, providing a natural look and feel. Most clients can enjoy two to three years of wear with proper care, making it a worthwhile investment.
With proper maintenance and care, Shiloh Temple Tresses Hair extensions can last up to 5 years. Our 100% real, unprocessed Indian hair is designed to maintain its quality and integrity over time, ensuring a lasting investment in your beauty.
Yes, our raw hair in natural black and natural brown can be colored, including lifting to a 613 blonde. As natural hair varies, some may be harder to lift than others. Always seek professional advice when coloring hair and perform a strand test on a small section first. Please note, coloring hair voids return or exchange policies.
Ethically sourced hair means it is procured with integrity and transparency. Our hair is willingly donated during South Indian temple ceremonies in India, and the proceeds benefit the local communities. This ethical approach ensures humane and high-quality hair products. Learn more about the importance of ethically sourced hair extensions.
Our hair bundles are meticulously crafted with double wefts, reinforced with glue using a three-headed sewing machine. This technique ensures that the wefts remain thin and secure, significantly reducing hair shedding. For best results, please refer to our Hair Care Guide to learn how to minimize shedding.
Absolutely not. Our hair products are entirely natural and pure, much like your own hair. Each bundle undergoes a rigorous triple quality check, followed by shampooing and conditioning at our facility in India, before being distributed worldwide.
The hair we sell is sourced from temples in South India, where over 50,000 individuals donate their hair daily as part of a religious ritual. The proceeds from these donations benefit the temple and local communities. Once acquired, the hair undergoes thorough inspection, cleaning, and processing to ensure the highest quality before being shipped to the USA for distribution. This process allows us to maintain full control over the entire production cycle.
No, once hair is colored, it is no longer considered Virgin. We color our raw hair using a unique ammonia-free process to achieve various shades. If you select a color other than Virgin Natural Black or Natural Brown, the hair has been colored and thus does not retain its Virgin status.
All hair available on our website is semi-double drawn, featuring natural variations in length. This special drawing technique ensures naturally tapered ends, resulting in fuller hair than single drawn options.
Yes, each bundle of our hair is sourced from a single donor, ensuring consistency and quality.
