Hair FAQs

WHAT IS VIRGIN HAIR?
 

Virgin hair refers to hair that is undamaged, unprocessed, and completely intact. The hair needs to meet specific standards including no previous bleach, color, dye, or chemical processing. ALL HAIR SOLD BY HiTrust Hair is 100% virgin hair.
 

CAN THE HAIR BE STRAIGHTENED OR CURLED?
 

Your new virgin hair extensions can be styled like your own hair. You are able to use accessories such as a straightener, and blow dryer, to straighten, curl, crimp, etc hair. Keep in mind the hair does NOT have all the nutrients that a strand growing from your scalp. Heat damage can cause breakage, dryness, and destroy the natural state of the bundles. It is both RECOMMENDED and SUGGESTED THAT CLIENTS always co-wash their hair before installation, use a heat-protecting product, and protect it during sleep hours with preferably a silk bonnet.
 

CAN I DYE MY BUNDLES?
 

ANY chemical process should be done by a professional. This purchase is an investment and chemically altering the hair can possibly damage it. Although our virgin hair extensions can handle a coloring process very well, please be cautious. Once the hair is chemically-altered incorrectly, the cuticle can become damaged and overexposed, causing fraying, breakage, dryness, and tangling. This in turn will affect the overall look and feel of your hair. Chemical damage has no BACK button, and we will not be held liable for any damages.
 

WHAT DOES CO-WASH MEAN?
 

Co-washing simply means washing with conditioner. It is a key task in extending the life of your extensions and keeping them healthy. We recommend a co-wash once a week with a moisturizing conditioner to ensure your hair gets the nutrients and moisture it needs. When you first receive your extensions, it is important to co-wash the hair, as it has been through the fulfillment department's hands, the manufacturer's hands, packaging, etc. *PLEASE KEEP IN MIND* Shampooing the hair can strip the hair entirely too much of its moisture. Always use WARM water, as hot water will overexpose the cuticle of the hair.

 

HOW SHOULD I CARE FOR MY HAIR?
 

All virgin hair reacts differently to products and regimens. Please be mindful to stay away from ingredients that can strip your extensions of moisture such as parabens, sulfate, and silicone. These products usually tend to have a high alcohol content which dehydrates the hair follicle of its nutrients and natural state. We recommend co-washing your bundles weekly and shampooing them bi-weekly to rid your bundles of any excess product. Deep conditioning can be done as needed or when necessary.

Can I shampoo my hair with the extensions installed?

For Lace Wigs: It is best to remove your wig before shampooing and reapply after. Shampooing your unit once a month is recommended.

How Long Does The Hair Last?
 

Virgin Hair Bundles: Can be used consecutively for 1 year.

Closures and Frontals: 2-4 Months based on care.

 

HOW MANY BUNDLES SHOULD I ORDER?
 

How many bundles to purchase depends on the lengths you want for the desired hairstyle. For a full sew-in, we recommend 3-4 bundles of hair. For lengths over 18'', we recommend ordering 4-5 bundles of hair. If you desire an install with a lot of volumes, you will need 4-5 bundles or 4 bundles with a closure. A closure is a great addition to your installation, as you will have no leave-out. This is considered a full protective style, and none of your hair will be exposed.
