In the past decade, hair extensions have become more accessible to women. Hair extensions are available in all kinds of textures, colours and types. One can use them to fake a bang, salvage a haircut that went wrong or elevate their daily look.

However, there have been several concerns amongst the topic of hair extensions, making some of us hold back on exploring them. 

The most common myths about hair extensions

1. Hair Extensions are Very Expensive

Many people believe those hair extensions, especially those that are made of 100% human hair, would be too expensive to be afforded by the average person. Let us assure you that this may have been true several years ago when only celebrities could afford human hair extensions. Nowadays, you don't have to rob a bank to get a reasonably priced hair extension of excellent quality. Human hair extensions may be a bit pricier than their synthetic counterparts, but they make up for it through their duration and quality. What's more, they perfectly blend with natural hair, and if taken good care of, last a long time.

2. Hair Extensions Damage Natural Hair

This is probably one of the main reasons why most women steer clear of installing hair extensions. However, professionally installed extensions don't affect your hair at all. The installation method and type of hair you go for also matters. If natural extensions are installed professionally, not only will they last longer, but they will also be comfortable and will allow your hair to grow.

3. Hair Extensions are Hard to Maintain

Hair extensions save you from the stress of having to rush to your stylist every morning. If correctly installed, your hair extensions should not require professional care regularly. They are easy to take care of. For starters, patience is vital. Once you are well knowledgeable on how to apply and take care of them after installation, maintenance is a walk in the park!

4. Questionable Source of Human Hair Extensions

For the longest time in history, people around the world have been donating their hair. Quality human hair extensions sold in reputable shops, Superior Hair included, are sourced from healthy regular people. What makes our extensions last is the fact that they aren't swept from the floors of temples and salons. Instead, they are sourced from donors with long, thick ponytails.

5. Hair Extensions Limit Your Workout Exercise

Installing hair extensions does not mean you can't lead a healthy fit life. Taking precautions such as the use of correct products and tools should have you rocking your favourite style, even to the gym! If you are looking for a carefree option, then clip-ins will be your go-to. Not only are they unbelievably easy to install, but they also come in handy when you wish to sweat it out in the gym and not have to worry about how your hair looks.

Long, healthy hair goals shouldn't be a farfetched dream anymore. Be sure to purchase your hair extensions from a trusted seller, and you can be assured of their quality. At Superior Hair, we strive to make your hair dreams a reality!

Where Does Our Human Hair Come From? Superior Hair

Where Does Our Human Hair Come From? Superior Hair

To achieve the most realistic look possible, human hair is the key, with the extensions seamlessly blending in with your natural hair. Many are reluctant when it comes to human hair, often feeling uncomfortable about not knowing where it’s come from. When you shop hair extensions with us, you can be confident in the quality and ethical sourcing of your hair. Below, we discuss where our human hair comes from and how it’s sourced.  Why is Human Hair Preferred Over Synthetic?  Human hair is the most popular choice when it comes to extensions and wigs, due to the realistic results they deliver. These results are more than the look and feel of the extensions, as you have far more freedom when it comes to styling. Heat tools can be used with care to style your long and luscious locks, without damaging the extensions. Where Do Real Human Hair Extensions Come From?  We work hard to maintain a healthy relationship with our hair suppliers and ensure they are paid fairly, and all hair is obtained ethically. Hair extensions have become more popular globally, but where do real human hair extensions come from, and how does the industry keep up with the demand? By putting our relationship with suppliers at the forefront of our business, we can ensure that they’re receiving enough money to provide them with a source of income and living wages. All our hair is sourced ethically, and we are devoted to adhering to the strict industry guidelines for hair production to keep things fair and ethical on every level of our supply chain. We do not condone the use of underage workers, underpaid workers, or unethically sourced hair that has become prevalent in the industry. The Importance of Ethical Sourcing The world is paying more attention to where their hair comes from as some of the darker aspects of the hair trade come to light. The Guardian explains that hair is generally sourced from impoverished areas, where women are offered small payments for their hair. It’s emphasised that this is not something these women are excited to participate in, usually being a last-resort option to ease their financial strain. Many women in these areas have virgin hair—never dyed, touched by heat tools, and in some cases cut at all—making it a valuable commodity on the dark side of the hair trade. There are reports of children being manipulated into shaving their heads, and even “prison hair” is rumoured to be on the market. Fortunately, as more light is shed on the issue, more effort is being put into change. We pride ourselves on our relationship with our suppliers, who all source their hair from willing donors across the world. With global standards adapting and the unethical sourcing of hair put under the microscope, we get closer to seeing a change for the better across the industry. Get Your Dream Locks with Superior Hair Extensions  What better way to feel confident in your locks than knowing they came from a willing donor? There’s no need to wonder about the circumstances that your product has come from. We are proud to have strong relationships with our international suppliers, to ensure fair treatment of workers, donors, and anybody else involved through the process. Whether you want some extra length, volume, or a bit of both, you can find the perfect hair extensions at Superior Hair.
