Features and differences of Slavic hair extensions

Nowadays, sparse hair is not a problem, at least for the female half of humanity. Hair extension technology has made great strides in the past few years. But in this matter, not only the hand of the master and high-quality material are necessary, but also your own, albeit only basic, knowledge. Luxury material for hair extensions are Slavic curls. This article will give a description of Slavic hair and tell you in detail about how they are better than other types of curls.

The so-called Slavic curls are the highest quality material for hair extensions. Such strands are carefully selected manually. Short, low-quality or gray hair does not fall into these curls. Due to the fact that each hair is laid in one direction of the scales, such curls are not confused. After selection, they are thoroughly cleaned (disinfected), and then they are painted in the required color.

The curls obtained as a result of all treatments are folded and fastened with elastic bands or tresses. As a result, it is safe to say that Slavic hair extensions are of high quality - this is the best material for extensions. The hairs in such curls are quite thin, they are not confused with each other, have a healthy shine.

Such hair undergoes minimal processing and is dyed only with gentle compounds. The "homeland" of these strands is Russia, Ukraine and Belarus, which is why such curls are most suitable for girls of Slavic appearance.

Slavic hair extensions have several key features, with which it is important to familiarize yourself before choosing for yourself this kind of artificial curls.

• Since the “Slav” is practically not processed, there is a possibility that live bacteria can remain on the hairs. This can be a risk factor for people with frequent bouts of allergies.
• The average wear period for such strands is 5 years.

• Hair can easily tolerate the effects of hot air - this is a hair dryer and hot climatic conditions.
• The weakest point is the mount. This area should not be exposed to direct and close exposure to hot air or chemicals.
• Very obedient - easy to fit, do not require long and thorough curling or other processing.

• Most often, Slavic hair is produced on ribbons, in other forms less often.
• Recently Slavic hair on hairpins has become popular, which is much easier to wear than hair extensions. They are easily removed and put on, do not require special care, and the hairpin is almost invisible.

Benefits:

• this type of hair can be worn for a long time, they do not deteriorate and do not lose their beautiful appearance;
• curls are no different from natural ones;
• can be used for overfitting;

• soft to the touch, not confused;
• there are a large number of colors;
• perfectly tolerate any building technology, including microcapsule, hot, cold, on tapes;

• good at painting and curling / straightening while wearing;
• on Slavic curls, highlighting and other types of clarification can be done (as a rule, a solution of hydrogen peroxide of not more than 1.5% is used);

• there is an opportunity to purchase both straight curls, and curled or even curly;
• with such curls you can go to the pool, bath, sauna, as they tolerate changes in temperature and humidity.

The disadvantages of this type of hair include their high price - almost 10 thousand rubles, and subtlety. The latter is inconvenient in that you need a fairly large number of curls during the extension procedure, if you want thick hair. Also, because of their high price, such curls are often faked. Asian hair, which is the cheapest material for building, is often issued by sellers for the "Slav".

Consider some features of caring for artificial curls.

• When wearing curls, you need to wash your hair several times a week with a special shampoo for hair extensions.
• Masks, balms, conditioners and oils will be a good complement to care, and nutrition for both natural and extended hairstyles.
• It is best to comb with a brush with natural bristles, since it is it that least damages the attachment points to natural hair.
• Like natural hair, hair extensions cannot be combed wet or wet - the risk of damage increases.
• It is not recommended to twist or tighten hair with an elastic band or hair clips.

Each type of hair extensions has its own characteristics, pros and cons. Most often, Slavic curls are compared with South Russian and European. Let us dwell on the differences in more detail.

• If Slavic hair can be dyed in any color, then among the South Russian curls there is no blond and some other light shades.
• Unlike the “Slav”, South Russian hair is quite hard to the touch.
• If the "Slav" is practically not confused, then South Russian strands have a slight confusion and fluffiness.

• The main difference, and, perhaps, the advantage is the much more favorable price than the "Slav", the price of South Russian hair. Given the fact that the relative level of hair quality in both species is almost the same.
• The hairs in South Russian curls are thicker and denser than in Slavic ones, which implies a much lower consumption when building. South Russian locks can add a significant amount of hairstyle even in small quantities.

But the difference between the "Slav" and European hair is noted already at the very initial stage of selection. European curls are a byproduct of combing out Slavic strands, so they are very different in quality.

The term of wear of European curls is greatly reduced in comparison with the "Slav". In addition, European curls can not be oversized. After each shampooing procedure, they can lose their attractive appearance and become very confused. The advantage is an affordable price - about 3 thousand rubles per 100 strands, which is enough for a full hair extension for one person.

In conclusion, it is worth noting that when choosing a material it is quite easy to encounter a fake. It’s worth acquiring material for building only from trusted sellers or contacting specialists in this matter. Otherwise, it’s quite possible to spend heavily on low-quality curls.
