Virgin Russian hair extensions are widely known as the most superior product available on the market. From this reputation countless suppliers and salons are sprouting to cash in on using the “Russian hair” buzzword. Unfortunately in an unregulated industry, unscrupulous businesses and individuals can sell at the worst level chinese and indian hair that has been chemically striped down and recoated with a plastic silicon layer that temporarily mimic’s Russian hair. Unlike Russian hair that can last for years, the inferior fake product only last months to even weeks once the silicon coating has been washed away.
