Looking To Try Brazilian Virgin Hair? Here’s What You Should Know

HelloBeautiful.com contributor Ty Alexander is one who has never opted for the likes of sublime Brazilian virgin hair weaves before, mainly due to somewhat personal reasons—she might have believed she’ll have to dye her natural hair another color if she adds a few more inches to it. After speaking to a professional stylist though, it became apparent that she’s missed out on the perks of having her mane buffed up with a weave.

If you’re like her and you’re looking to try out weaves for the first time, there are several things you have to know before pushing through. Here are a few ones to help you get started:


Always Opt for Top Quality Hair

Never forget that going cheap with weaves will do you no good. Cheap, synthetic extensions have the tendency to damage your natural hair and cause scalp irritation. Also bear in mind that brand names don’t really ring true in this landscape. Your best option of all would be authentic Brazilian virgin hair and the likes, or ones which didn’t undergo any sort of chemical processing at all.

Buy Only From a Legitimate Dealer

Choosing weaves isn’t as simple as walking into a bookstore and picking up a book you like at first glance. Be sure to do extensive research to find the most reputable dealers of genuine Brazilian hair for sale, like Her Hair Company, in your locale.

Know the Ins and Outs of Textures

While your hair may have quite a distinct texture on its own, it doesn’t mean you have to match your weave’s texture to it strand by strand. For instance, customers with naturally coarse hair texture are sometimes given hair that’s artificially processed to achieve the coarseness; a deed which significantly reduces the quality. If you’re still unsure about texturing, you can always ask a professional for assistance.

You’ll Need to Perform TLC As Well

Once you’ve put a weave on your head, you shouldn’t just leave it alone. While the weave is in, you have to pay close attention to your scalp, that is, supplement it with special oils to keep it healthy. When it comes to washing, a virgin hair weave from dealers like Her Hair Company can save you lots of trouble in the long run as it can last through more washes than a synthetic one. Washing your weave with a sulphate and silicone-free product once a week is recommended.
