Difference Between Raw Hair vs Remy Hair

We understand that the various terms used to describe hair quality can be confusing, so we aim to make it easier for our valued clients to know exactly what they are purchasing.

There are two main categories that determine human hair quality: Raw Hair and Remy Hair. We’ll explain these categories in detail below.

After covering these categories, we’ll dive into the different hair grades, how terms like “Brazilian” and “Peruvian” fit in, and why understanding Hair Density is important.

Please note that HazuHair’s two most popular hair collections are Raw Hair and Remy Hair, both of which can be ordered based on your specific needs.

What is Raw Hair

Raw hair refers to human hair that has not undergone any form of chemical or steam processing. It is collected directly from individual donors, with all strands aligned in the same direction and the cuticles intact, which helps prevent tangling. This type of hair can be dyed to any color, including bleach blonde (color 613).

Due to its premium quality, raw hair is quite expensive. For example, an 18-inch bundle can cost anywhere between R2000 and R4000, and raw hair is primarily purchased by European and American markets because of its high cost. In South Africa, raw hair is rarely sold, and a wig made from raw hair could cost between R12,000 and R15,000.

While raw hair offers exceptional quality, the high cost may not justify the investment for most clients. However, if budget is not a concern, raw hair is an excellent option for those seeking the best in luxury hair.

What is Remy Hair

Remy hair refers to high-quality human hair with the cuticles intact and aligned in the same direction, which ensures a natural look and minimizes tangling. While Remy hair may have undergone some processing, such as dyeing, perming, or slight chemical treatments, the cuticle integrity is maintained, providing a smooth, natural appearance.

It’s important to note that while all virgin hair is considered Remy, not all Remy hair is virgin. The majority of Remy hair available in South Africa has undergone some level of processing, making it more affordable compared to virgin hair. While Remy hair can typically be dyed, it often cannot achieve blonde shades and is better suited for brown tones.

In terms of value for money and quality, Remy hair offers an excellent balance. It is one of the most popular choices for women globally when purchasing human hair extensions.

Choosing the Right Option

The decision between raw hair and remy hair comes down to your personal preferences and styling needs. Here are a few factors to consider:

• Texture: If you prefer a more natural, varied texture, raw hair is the ideal choice. However, if you want a consistent texture that closely resembles your natural hair, remy hair may suit you better.
• Color: For those who want extensions that can be dyed and styled to their preference, raw hair offers more flexibility. On the other hand, if you’re looking for extensions that match your current hair color, remy hair could be the easier option.
• Longevity: Both raw and remy hair can last with proper care, but raw hair tends to last much longer—up to 4 years or more—compared to remy hair, which typically lasts 1-2 years. Raw hair also offers the freedom to bleach and change colors easily, while remy hair has more limitations in this area.

Consider your styling goals and how long you plan to use the extensions when making your choice.

Both raw hair and remy hair offer fantastic options to help you achieve the hairstyle you’ve always desired. Each type comes with its own distinct qualities, and your choice will depend on your personal style, preferences, and budget. Whether you embrace the natural variety of raw hair or the smooth consistency of remy hair, investing in high-quality extensions will elevate your look and boost your confidence. Make the right choice, and get ready to showcase your dream hairstyle!
