Raw Hair vs The rest hair

The Journey of Leona Virtue: A Tale of Ethical Purity and Timeless Beauty

In the heart of India, amidst the rich cultural traditions and sacred rituals, lies a practice that is both profound and meaningful—the offering of hair at temples. This sacred act, deeply rooted in devotion and spirituality, is the source of Leona Virtue’s exquisite raw hair, embodying purity, ethical sourcing, and a commitment to bringing the best quality hair to you.

Introduction
The human hair industry is unregulated and, therefore, manufacturers and brands can name their products however they wish. The purpose of this article is to clarify any confusion around the definitions of hair types and for Leona Virtue's clients to understand with confidence and trust what Leona Virtue sources. Dive deep into the evolution of hair quality, from 100% human to raw, and make informed choices with Leona Virtue's hair quality assurance.

100% Human Hair
Before the launch of “bundles”, the highest quality hair available was dubbed “100% human hair”, predominantly at beauty supply stores. Brands like Bobbi Boss, Sensationnel, and others marketed the quality of their products by claiming their hair lasted for 4 washes or 8 washes. In comparison to what Leona Virtue sells, this was/is low-tier hair. However, it's still available in beauty supply stores across America and online platforms like Aliexpress.

Remy Hair
This term was coined by the temples in India, identifying the hair they auctioned as Remy Single Drawn or RSD. It's hair cut directly from donors' heads at temples, with cuticles intact and aligned from root to tip. Remy hair was/is hair versatile enough to wash, bleach, curl, and use daily. Leona Virtue's commitment to authentic hair sourcing brought this quality to the market, establishing a new industry standard.

Virgin Hair
With Leona Virtue's rising fame for high-quality Remy hair, other brands began renaming their products as Remy hair. Recognizing this, Leona Virtue introduced "Virgin Hair" to the market, a term that described hair of unmatched versatility, durability, and authenticity. The premium virgin hair that Leona Virtue offers originates from the temples of India, setting the gold standard in the hair extension world.

Raw Hair
The hair naming progression has now reached raw hair. These name changes stem from the lack of regulation, pushing companies to continuously seek distinct brand identities. Yet, it's crucial to understand that a name doesn't determine the hair's quality. What's pivotal is the source. Many brands remain unaware of their hair's origin. However, Leona Virtue stands apart, consistently ensuring transparency and quality.

Leona Virtue’s Commitment to Authenticity and Quality
As the hair industry undergoes constant change, with numerous brands emerging and claiming unparalleled quality, Leona Virtue remains steadfast in its promise to clients. While the terminology around hair may evolve, Leona Virtue’s commitment to sourcing and delivering only the best has never wavered.

Transparency In Sourcing
When buying hair extensions, the primary concern for most is authenticity and longevity. Many brands claim to offer 'the best', but without proper verification, you're left in uncertainty. Leona Virtue takes pride in its transparent approach. From the temples of South India to the packaging you receive, every step is accounted for. We have rigorous quality checks, regular visits to our factories, and maintain a direct line of sourcing, ensuring that our patrons receive nothing but genuine products.

Ethical Sourcing: A Commitment to Integrity
Leona Virtue’s commitment to ethical sourcing is not just a promise but a guiding principle. The temple hair donation process is entirely voluntary, and the funds generated from the sale of hair are used to support the temple’s charitable activities, including education, healthcare, and community development. This transparent and ethical cycle ensures that the donors’ sacrifices benefit the greater good.

Unlike most other hair dealers, who blend different strands of hair together to achieve a similar length and increase the hair yield (resulting in hair coming from at least two donors), Leona Virtue promises to use only single donor hair. This ensures the integrity of the effect of dyeing or styling, as no two people have the exact same hair composition. When clients dye or style their hair at home, they will notice uniformity in results, which is not guaranteed by other vendors mixing synthetic or lower-quality hair.

Educating Our Patrons
The vast array of terms in the hair industry can indeed be baffling. Leona Virtue believes in educating its patrons—not just about our products, but about the entire landscape of hair extensions. Whether you're a first-time buyer or a seasoned stylist, understanding the nuances of Raw Hair, Virgin Hair, and Remy Hair can empower you to make informed choices.
