Hair Extension LingoVirgin: The gold standard of hair extensions, virgin hair has never been chemically processed or dyed. It's typically more expensive than any other hair extension types and comes in natural, darker hair colors. Though this is considered the best quality, virgin hair may sometimes come from multiple donors, which would decrease its quality -- so be sure to check first.
Remy: Remy grades come from the same hair donor, and provide the most natural look. The hair's cuticles (the outermost protective layer of hair) are kept intact and are not stripped, which means hair will be at its healthiest and shiniest, so there's very little tangling. Remy-grade hair isn't necessarily virgin. If you're looking for a long-lasting style with a ton of mileage, opt for a hair type that is both remy and virgin hair grade.
