Human Hair FAQs

Human hair wigs are made from real, natural hair and offer a more realistic look and feel. They can be heat-styled, dyed, and washed just like your own hair. Synthetic wigs, while more affordable, typically have a shorter lifespan and cannot withstand heat styling unless specified. If you’re looking for versatility and longevity, human hair is the superior choice.

With proper care, a high-quality human hair wig can last1 to 3 years or more. Longevity depends on how often you wear it, how it's maintained, and how it's stored. Using gentle, sulphate-free products and heat protection can significantly extend its life.

While you can technically sleep in a human hair wig, it's not recommended. Sleeping in your wig can cause tangling, matting, and unnecessary stress on the lace. Instead, store it on a wig stand overnight and wear a silk or satin bonnet if needed.

Ethically sourced hair means the hair is collected with full consent from the donor, under fair and transparent conditions.

Donors are paid and treated respectfully, and the sourcing process avoids exploitative or deceptive practices. This ensures dignity and integrity throughout the supply chain.

Our wigs are made using premium-grade human hair, sourced from reputable suppliers in regions such as Brazil, Peru, and Southeast Asia. We only work with partners who meet strict ethical standards for donor transparency, working conditions, and traceability

We prioritise working with vetted manufacturers who comply with ethical sourcing policies. While the global hair industry lacks universal regulation, we choose suppliers who provide documentation, donor agreements, and follow responsible collection practices.

Not necessarily. "Remy" refers to hair with cuticles intact and aligned, while "Virgin" means the hair is unprocessed. Ethics depends on how the hair is collected and how donors are treated—not just the hair’s physical quality. That said, higher-end Remy and Virgin hair often comes from more reputable sources due to the demand for quality assurance.

Ethical sourcing involves fair compensation, clean collection practices, and better working conditions—all of which cost more to maintain. You’re not just paying for premium hair quality but for ethical responsibility and peace of mind.
