Remy Hair

Remy or Remi is not a brand name. The term refers to the characteristics in the hair. Remy hair is collected from a donor and stored with the cuticle intact, roots aligned This means all the hair follicles flow in a single direction. The hair is shinier, softer, more durable and has a much longer life than non-Remy hair. The hair is also less likely to tangle and matt. Remy is also commonly known as cuticle hair.


Virgin Hair

Remy hair can be virgin (unprcocessed) or processed for color or texture. As long as the cuticle is aligned and intact, the hair is considered Remy. However the best quality Remy is Virgin because it has not been processed and is in its natural state. Virgin Remy is very soft and silky and 100% natural. Indian, Asian, Brazilian, Mongolian and Malaysian virgin hair tends to be very dark and medium brown in color. Virgin hair can be straight, wavy or curly in texture. However any hair that has been processed for texture, for example Yaki, body waves, kinky, curls, etc. are no longer considered virgin. Likewise if Remy hair has been altered in color, it is also processed and no longer virgin. In a nutshell, virgin hair is also Remy but not all Remy hair is virgin.
