DIFFERENCE BETWEEN VIRGIN HAIR, FIBER HAIR, SYNTHETIC HAIR & HUMAN HAIR BLEND

The hair industry is a robust one with so many manufacturers, retailers & hair distributors selling different types of hair hence giving people the luxury of having so many varieties to choose from.  The major challenge is that most end users can’t easily tell the difference between the various types of hair in the market and may end up paying more for less. Also, given the high demand for hairs in the market, quality is currently at an all-time low hence why 10x10 Hair should be your go to store for quality hair.

This week post is to HELP you understand the different types of hair extensions & wigs to serve as a guide for your next hair shopping.
