Understanding Human Hair

Natural 100% human hair is widely used in the hair and fashion industry for fashion, beauty and hair shoots and worn by professional models.

Being natural, real and 100% human means it is the closest match you can get to your own hair.

Love Hair Extensions Human Hair extensions are 100% real hair. The hair used in our products is purchased from suppliers that follow stringent ethical codes. They collect hair in one of two ways, namely “Temple Hair” or “Brushed & Fallen Hair”.

The first of these comes from donors at temples in India. By tradition, there are certain Hindu ceremonies where worshippers cut off their hair. The hair is plaited and before being cut and tied both ends afterwards which keeps hair running in a single cuticle direction.

Brushed/Fallen hair is gathered by farmers that give individual households collection baskets in which they collect strands of naturally fallen hair. Collecting hair in this way omits the need for donors to cut all their hair off in one go, plus it provides an extra source of income for poorer households in developing countries. This is the method used by Love Hair Extensions.

Factories will sort, cleanse, colour and condition hair as required before creating the final product.

Love Hair Extensions human hair extensions are available in a choice of 30 colours and six lengths, 14”, 16”, 18”, 20”, 22” and 24”.

At Love Hair Extensions our synthetic hair pieces are made using an advanced non-shedding man-made fibre with a specially formulated coating for long lasting shine. This product, Thermofibre™, unlike most fibres, can endure heat up to 170 deg C which means you can wash, straighten, curl, blow dry and treat your extensions as if they were your own.  

Fibre hair can’t ever beat the perfect match of our guaranteed 100% human hair but is nevertheless a popular alternative choice. Available in 22 colours and 18” long.

Looking after your hair extensions will help them last longer and you’ll get more hours of glamour and fun out of them. Our maintenance products work brilliantly on both our 100% Human Hair and Thermofibre™ extensions.

We recommend our gentle pH balanced Love Hair Extensions Shampoo to cleanse followed by our light weight moisturising Conditioner to detangle. Plus for more regular use or as you’re wearing them out and about, get an instant lift from our Daily Conditioning Spray which detangles and softens. Packed in a friendly handbag sized spray bottle, it’s easy to carry about.

When applying your extensions, if you cut them seal the edges with our specialling formulated Love Hair Extensions Sealer. This will prevent the ends of the hair weft from shredding or fraying.

For Thermofibre™ Hair Extensions we recommend Love Hair Extensions Professional Ceramic Ionic Straighteners, specifically designed for use with hair extensions. Your extensions can be heated safely using our built in temperature control system so you can set your temperature to 170°C. Ionic technology and slim line plates combine to provide superb frizz control and ease of styling.

Ever wondered where hair extensions come from?

With fibre hair it's easy - it's man made and manufactured in factories, much the same as producing fabrics or threads.

However, with human hair it is a different story. Human Hair is hair that has grown on a living being. That hair is then bought by 'hair merchants' who then sort it ready for sale to human hair extension production firms.

This method of collection starts with hair farmers providing households, mainly in Asia (with Chinese and Indian hair being the majority of hair collected), with hair collection boxes, usually one in each bedroom or bathroom.

These households are also provided with special hair brushes and combs which collect any falling hairs within their bristles when each member of the household styles their hair daily.

Did you know that each person loses approximately 50 stands of hair a day?

After the daily styling, the hair is removed from the combs and placed into the collection boxes. These boxes get checked on a monthly basis and, when there is sufficient weight in each box, the household gets paid. Back to the Top
