WHAT SORT OF HAIR DO WE USE?
There are lots of different grades of human hair used within the hair extension and hair replacement industry, so it’s important to know what you’re looking for and their individual qualities. At CrownCouture, our owners Nikki and Lorraine travel across the world to personally source and quality check the human hair that’s used for our hair extension, wig, hair clip-in and hair piece products.
All the hair used for our hair extension service is 100% human hair – and we have various products and prices to choose from. Our Russian Mongolian cuticle hair is soft and silky, while our Virgin Brazilian is known for its incredible texture, and strength and durability – perfect for waves and curls. Our Pure Mongolian hair sits right in the middle, and is silky, smooth and wonderfully voluminous.
All of our human hair is specially processed to ensure that all the cuticles remain intact and face the same direction from root to tip. This is classed as ‘remy hair’ and ultimately helps prevent the hair extensions from matting or tangling while being installed.
We offer all our human hair products in our Edinburgh salon, as well as supplying other well-known salons, hair technicians, session stylists, celebrity stylists and consumers around the world. Purchase today via our online store.
HAIR TYPES
Russian/Mongolian
hair
Our most popular hair is our double drawn Russian Mongolian cuticle hair. Selecting raw hair from Russia and Mongolia, we blended them together to exploit the individual strengths of each race of hair. This hair is silky soft like typical Russian hair yet strong and durable like typical Mongolian hair.
The hairs are sourced from young healthy donors. The hair is then processed slowly to maintain a beautiful, soft and shiny hair that will retain its vitality for up to a year and beyond.
This hair is thick from root to tip giving the client a fuller finish.
Virgin Brazilian
hair
Our Double Drawn Virgin Brazilian hair is sourced direct from the North of Brazil. The ethnic diversity of Brazil provides us with great variation in the texture of hair – straight, wavy and molado (curly).
Brazilian hair is renowned for its full body and special texture as well as its strength and durability. Our Brazilian hair comes in its natural state, uncoloured and untreated as Virgin hair.
The hair is double-drawn (meaning that it is very thick from root to tip). If cared for correctly, this hair can be used time and time again.
Mongolian
hair
Based on the success of our Russian Mongolian range, we have introduced a PURE Mongolian hair to our hair collections.
Mongolian hair is fast becoming one of the most in demand hairs on the market today.
This hair is a perfect balance between our Russian Mongolian and Brazilian hairs, both of which are reusable, offering client’s silky soft, smooth, and voluminous hair.
Our Mongolian hair is double drawn, meaning the hair will give more body and volume to any look.
