In this article we will discuss the most popular textures of human hair weaves used today. Have you ever wondered what the meaning of Remy, Yaky, Virgin, Brazilian, Peruvian, Mongolian, Chinese, Italian, European, or Russian hair is?  It’s a mouth full that’s what it is!

Remy Hair has to be one of the most confusing words used in today’s market.  First off, Remy hair does not mean the hair is virgin hair.  Remy hair can be virgin, processed (colored) or unprocessed.Remy Hair is bundled in such a manner that the roots of the hair are on one side and the tip of the hair on the opposite side.   Since all the hair cuticles are placed in the same direction, the hairs remain undisturbed, making them more durable and long lasting.Let’s get one thing straight ladies Remy Hair does not always mean Virgin hair, in fact it rarely means that.   Although the two terms are used synonymously, they are completely different in meanings.

Yaki Hair:  Is called Yaki or Regular Yaki or Regular relaxed yaki.  Yaki is made to look like typical African American hair that has been relaxed and is not as silky as the Remy hair, the strands are thicker.

Virgin hair means that it’s hair so pure that it’s never been processed or treated, EVER. That means the donors have never in their lifetime gone to a salon to get their hair curled or colored!

Brazilian, Peruvian, Malaysian,Indian,Mongolian, Chinese, and Italian hair are all a form of Virgin hair.  The hair is 100% natural and not processed and free of any damage to the cuticles.   The hair usually comes from the specific country it is named after.
