Glorious Hair Extensions

Remy is a term used to describe hair extensions where the hairs all point in one direction: roots at the top, ends at the bottom. It is the natural way that hairs flow on your head and, therefore, is much less likely to become matted or tangled. Lately, due to overuse of the term, many shoppers incorrectly associate this word with hair extensions as a whole. Remy is not a brand, it isn’t a company; it’s an adjective, a word used to give more information about the type of hair you’re purchasing.
Since the term, Remy is everywhere in the hair universe and on almost every package of hair, (even those that aren’t truly Remy) customers have a hard time knowing what to believe. Here are a couple of things to pay attention to if you’re looking for true Remy hair.
1. Remy hair will be more expensive than the alternative. If you see a package of hair that is labeled Remy, yet is priced at ten bucks, it’s not Remy.
2. Run your fingers through the hair, it should be smooth and soft. Your fingers should glide through any strands that aren’t hanging straight with no problems. If your fingers get caught on a section of hair and you can’t wiggle your way to the end, it’s likely not Remy.
3. Also, if it’s not dyed, the ends should be lighter than the hair at the top of the weft when placed in good lighting.
