It's been a few years since the wearing of wigs has been democratized. To change your look for an evening, to go blonde without affecting your natural color or to shorten or lengthen your hair without taking any risks, wigs and extension strips (or weaves) have become a popular new alternative.

And before embarking on the purchase of a wig, there are a few things to know, especially in terms of quality. Know that there are different types of hair, namely synthetic hair, so-called "natural" hair on which it is possible to do everything: coloring, sophisticated styling, curls, straightening. And among the "natural" hair there are also different categories. Today we are looking at the difference between hair called "Virgin Hair" (virgin hair) and hair called "Raw Hair" (raw hair).

Here is the description given by the brand Oshun Beauty, precisely specialized in "Raw Hair": Raw Hair is by definition, the premium quality of Virgin Hair. This hair is completely pure, it has not undergone any treatment. Raw means "raw", it is devoid of any manual and of course chemical manipulation. It is literally taken from the head of a single donor, then washed and then stitched straight on and ready to use. No intermediate step, so you get thicker, higher quality wicks that last longer. Raw Hair provides an undeniable natural effect. The hair moves perfectly in the same fluid and harmonious movement thanks to the aligned cuticles. Raw Hair is the one that blends most naturally with all types of hair (European, African, etc.) because it is permeable as desired.

Focus on Oshun Beauty wigs The Oshun Beauty brand has made "Raw Hair" its expertise. The hair of the wigs is taken at the source, in a workshop located in Vietnam, on a single donor who has never treated or chemically modified his hair. That's why the hair of the wigs is of superior quality, naturally soft, silky and shiny. The brand therefore offers wigs with a very natural finish but also more extravagant models allowing you to afford a new look.
