Wigs come in two main varieties: those crafted from natural hair and those from synthetic fibers. It's widely acknowledged that wigs made from real hair boast a far more authentic appearance compared to their synthetic counterparts. Natural hair possesses its own unique texture, shine, and colouration, which is rich in nuanced shades rather than uniform hues. Additionally, it has a distinctive fluidity and softness that surpasses synthetic hair, allowing for versatile styling options.
The process of making high-quality natural hair wigs is very complicated. The sourcing of raw materials and all phases of hair processing must observe precise quality standards.
The term 'hair movement' refers to the natural sway and cascade of strands across the face and shoulders. In natural hair, this movement is influenced by factors such as length, thickness, and most importantly, the hair's overall health. Healthy hair tends to exhibit lively movement,while porous or chemically treated hair may appear lackluster and brittle, losing its natural vibrancy and sheen.
A natural wig achieves excellence when crafted from healthy hair meticulously anchored to ensure natural movement and fall, mimicking the appearance of real hair. Therefore, the type of hair utilized stands as a pivotal factor distinguishing a superior wig from others. The fidelity tonatural hair characteristics maintained throughout the wig production process enhances the illusion that the wig is your own natural hair. The condition and health of the hair are paramount considerations in wig production.
HAIR STRUCTURE
Hair, whether natural or used for wig production, consists of three primary layers:
The hair shaft is formed of three layers:
The medulla – the deepest layer of the hair shaft, only seen in large and thick hairs.
The cortex – the middle layer of the hair shaft which provides the strength, colour and texture of a hair fibre.
The cuticle – the outer layer of the hair shaft. The cuticle protects the inner layers of the airshaft from damage.
To create superior wigs, precise quality standards are imperative throughout the production process. From sourcing raw materials to meticulously processing fine hair and finally packaging the product, every stage must adhere to strict criteria. By maintaining the health of the cuticle, we ensure the beauty and integrity of the hair. Our commitment to quality guarantees that each wig embodies the essence of natural hair, enhancing the wearer's confidence and comfort.
Our dedication is to use hair of indisputable quality. Whether it's the exclusive Remy European hair with meticulously preserved cuticles or the carefully selected Indian and Asian hair, we ensure optimal hair health. Emphasizing meticulous selection and rigorous processing, we craft natural hair wigs that maintain their softness, luster, and silkiness over time.
Our caps are designed to be lightweight and breathable, providing a secure yet gentle fit for even the most sensitive skin. With innovative designs like the Sensitive Cap and Anti-Slip Cap, they offer unparalleled comfort compared to traditional wigs.
Every strand of hair is intricately tied onto a transparent, breathable mesh, mimicking the natural growth pattern of hair from the scalp. Each knot, made with one or two hairs, ensures the most authentic appearance. All our wigs are meticulously handcrafted.
Our extensive experience ensures excellence at every stage of production.Through careful oversight, expert craftsmanship, and the use of premium materials like Remy hair with intact cuticles, our wigs retain their beauty and quality for an extended period.
High-quality raw material is essential for producing superior wigs. Therefore, it is crucial to source healthy, strong hair that has never been chemically treated—meaning it has never undergone colouring, discolouration, or permanent treatments.
During the harvesting phase, the hair must be straightened into braids or tails to maintain the consistent root-to-tip direction for every strand, ensuring all cuticles are aligned uniformly.
Following the initial processing steps, the subdivision of hair lengths commences. This involves delicately loosening the braids and meticulously dividing the hair based on its length. We execute this procedure with the utmost care to ensure consistent alignment from the root to the tip. By maintaining this uniform direction, we obtain bundles of hair with precise and uniform lengths necessary for crafting various wig models.
The shell of the wig is of fundamental importance, requiring the use of high-quality materials that are as lightweight as possible and hypoallergenic. It's imperative that the materials are pleasant to the touch and comfortable against the skin. The caps must exhibit resilience and possess a suitable degree of elasticity to ensure a secure and comfortable fit.
In the production of most natural wigs, the hair is meticulously tied onto the cap. This presents an opportunity to imbue the hair with direction and style, enhancing the overall aesthetic of the wig. Given that these are natural hairs, they can be manipulated and styled to achieve the desired movement and appearance.
The type of hair utilised in our wig production varies depending on the desired outcome, influenced by factors such as the quality of the hair, the type of cap used, and the final cost of the product. Taking these factors into account, we opt to use three different types of hair: European with intact cuticles, Indian/Asian with intact cuticles, and Indian/Asian without cuticles. Each hair type is carefully selected to best achieve the desired result for the specific wig model.
The depigmentation of the hair continues, requiring gentle and precise treatment. The objective is to bleach the hair while preserving the integrity of the cuticles and respecting the entire hair structure. The duration of the process varies depending on the desired colour outcome. For instance, achieving wigs with light blonde hair entails subjecting the originally dark hair—usually brown or brunette—to a progressive depigmentation process that can span several days. This gradual approach ensures optimal results while maintaining the health and vitality of the hair. Following the initial processing steps, the subdivision of hair lengths commences. This involves delicately loosening the braids and meticulously dividing the hair based on its length. We execute this procedure with the utmost care to ensure consistent alignment from the root to the tip. By maintaining this uniform direction, we obtain bundles of hair with precise and uniform lengths necessary for crafting various wig models.
In the depigmentation process, some manufacturers resort to aggressive products to expedite the procedure and reduce costs. However, this approach compromises the health of the hair. Aggressive bleaching can irreversibly damage the hair and its structure, jeopardising its integrity. Hair may become dry, brittle, and devoid of its natural softness and radiance. In severe cases, the scalp can become affected, leading to lifting and detachment of the hair follicles.
Our skilled technicians meticulously assess the required fullness for each wig model, determining the precise amount of hair in grams. The naturalness of appearance and comfort for the wearer are paramount considerations in this process. It's essential that a wig is never too heavy to wear while also maintaining a natural look—neither too sparse nor overly full of hair.
