What is Raw Hair?
Raw hair refers to 100% natural, unprocessed human hair that has not been chemically treated, dyed, or altered in any way. It is collected directly from donors, often in its natural state, meaning it retains its cuticle layer (the outer protective layer of the hair). This ensures that the hair remains intact, with its natural texture, shine, and strength.
Key characteristics of raw hair:
-
Unprocessed: The hair has not undergone any chemical treatments such as coloring, perming, or relaxing.
-
Cuticle intact: The cuticle is the protective outer layer of the hair, and when left intact, it helps the hair remain smooth and shiny.
-
Natural texture: Raw hair comes in its natural state, whether it's straight, wavy, or curly, offering a more authentic, realistic look when installed.
-
Durability: Since raw hair is not chemically altered, it tends to be stronger and more durable, lasting longer with proper care.
Raw hair is highly prized in the beauty industry because of its high quality, versatility, and ability to blend seamlessly with natural hair for a more flawless, realistic appearance. It also offers the flexibility to be styled, dyed, or customized without the fear of damage that often comes with processed hair.
How long does it last?
Raw hair can last anywhere from 2 to 5 years, or even longer, depending on how well it is cared for. Since it is unprocessed and retains its natural cuticle layer, it is more durable than processed hair. With proper maintenance, raw hair bundles can withstand regular washing, styling, and heat treatment without significant damage.
Here are some key factors that influence the lifespan of raw hair:
-
Proper care and maintenance: Regular washing with sulfate-free shampoos, conditioning, and moisturizing are essential to maintain the hair's texture and prevent dryness or tangling.
-
Minimal heat styling: While raw hair can handle heat better than processed hair, excessive heat can cause damage over time. Using heat protectant products and limiting heat styling can help extend its life.
-
Protective styles: Keeping the hair in protective styles or minimizing daily manipulation helps reduce wear and tear.
-
Storage: When not in use, storing the hair properly (such as in a dry, cool place) can help maintain its quality.
With proper care, raw hair can retain its softness, texture, and shine, making it a long-term investment for anyone looking for durable, high-quality hair.

Should I wash it before my install?
​​
Absolutely! Washing the hair before you install it hels remove any oils that may effect styling and give you a blank canvas to work with.
​
How to wash raw hair:
-
Use a gentle, sulfate-free shampoo to avoid stripping the hair of its natural moisture.
-
Condition thoroughly to maintain softness and reduce tangling.
-
Let it air dry or gently towel dry to avoid causing any heat damage.
