Women believe that the hair is their glory. This means she will protect it in any way necessary, including wearing virgin Indian hair extensions. Very popular in Los Angeles, CA, the bundles are available both online as well as in stores.
The quality of Indian weaves make them distinguishable from any other type. Unlike the ones from Southeast Asia, which is thicker and straighter, India's weave textures are either fine, wavy or curly. Available in dark brown or black, these hairs are easily managed because they are not processed with artificial colors or straighteners. The curly and wavy textures may be straighten; however, once wet the hairs will return to their original texture.
There are several ways to determine the authenticity of the natural hairs. For example, the root is darker than the rest of the strand. The color difference comes from the women in India working under the influence of the sun. Chemically treated wefts also have an odor. The lack of silicone coating leaves the chemical-free hairs without an artificial shine. Using small amounts of Argon oil will add shine and prevent dryness. At night, before going to bed, make sure the extensions are completely dry. Sleeping on wet extensions may cause them to tangle or develop an odor.
In its unprocessed state, this type of hair has endless styling potential. Stylists recommend using sulfate-free conditioners and shampoos. During the process, always start at the tip and lather towards the root. When heavy oils are used, the weave should be washed frequently to reduce oil build up.
There are several ways to detect authentic chemical-free wefts. Processed pieces are acid washed. The follicles are stripped and cuticles are damaged. Chemically processed hair is also shinier because it is coated with sulfate. Since it is natural, unprocessed hair will pass the split end test.

High quality wefts are more expensive than the typical beauty-store bundles. As a rule of thumb, at a minimum, the bundle should cost at least $100 for a 20-inch bundle. Shorter lengths cost less. Available online and in stores, it is important to consult a qualified expert before making a purchase. This helps to eliminate problems.
The minimum cost for a 20-inch bundle is around $100. The cost of the pieces is determined by it's length and texture. Packs claiming to be virgin but cost considerably less are not authentic. They are a form of processed Non-Remy fake virgin hair.

Lasting between six months and one year, the virgin wefts last nearly three times as long. When properly care for, the extensions will retain their original texture, appeal and luster.
