FAQs
WHAT IS REMY HUMAN HAIR?
Remy human hair is the highest grade of real, human hair available on the market and is a preferred choice for hair extensions, hairpieces and wigs because it achieves the most natural look.
Remy Hair is considered to be the finest quality of human hair because the cuticles are kept intact and not stripped or shaved, like in most other non-Remy hair extensions. This is important because the cuticle protects the inner structure of the hair and is the first-line defense against all forms of damage to the hair. With Remy hair, the cuticles (the outermost layer of the hair strand) are all layered in the same direction, thus creating extensions that have a very natural appearance. This process ensures that the hair remains super soft, shiny, and tangle-free and therefore the extensions last longer than a non-Remy human hair.
GL hair extensions use only the finest quality Remy Human Hair, which means that the hair has been carefully sorted after collecting from the hair donor to ensure all the cuticles are of the same length. It is by far the best quality of clip-in human hair extensions on the market because of the care that is required and the time it takes to sort the hair so meticulously.
WHAT QUALITY SHOULD I LOOK FOR WHEN BUYING HAIR EXTENSIONS?
Remy Human Hair Extensions — Remy hair is produced using only the finest quality of human hair available. Our Remy hair is 100% cuticle correct (root to tip) and has been processed leaving the cuticle intact to prolong the life of the hair. Silky and resistant to tangling, Remy hair is an excellent choice when shopping for hair extensions.
Golden Lush utilizes “BRAID" hair signifying that the cuticle layers are all facing the same direction from root to end, therefore, do not tangle. This also ensures that the extensions behave exactly like your hair, blending in superbly with yours and looking super natural!
Our hair quality is rated from 5A+ to 6A+ (the higher the better).
WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SYNTHETIC AND HUMAN HAIR EXTENSIONS?
Hair extensions made from human hair can be dyed, heated (curled or straightened), styled, washed, and treated like your own natural hair. Hair extensions made from synthetic hair are sensitive to the sun, don’t last as long as human hair, are difficult to style, and cannot blend in as well with your real hair. Human hair has a natural feel and styling versatility as compared to synthetic hair that does not change its present shape. 2. Synthetic hair extensions and pieces cannot be dyed or color treated. ... Synthetic hair is poor heat resistant and can melt near heated areas like fireplaces etc
Expect to pay anywhere from $20-$45/bundle for synthetic hair extensions, and real human hair based on the grade. Prices may vary. Golden Lush Extensions can take up to 470 degrees C in heat.
IS THE TAPE MADE OF HYPOALLERGENIC TAPE OR A "GEL" TAPE ADHESIVE?
This is a very common question that everyone wants to know. When it comes to tape extensions, you want a hypoallergenic regular tape adhesive. This type of tape adhesive is the best as it is strong, durable and waterproof but it doesn't rip out your hair or causes irritation to your scalp. Some other tape brands are made with a very (read: too) strong adhesive. It is called a gel-based tape extension. Yes, this type of hair extension is STRONG and lasts...until the very end when you go to take your hair out. It's impossible and you lose a lot of hair. The downside: Your hair rips out at a time of removal. YOU DO NOT want this type of tape extension. The best type of tape extension is one that is strong but not gel based. Flatiron to apply the tape extensions to seal the tape adhesive properly! The whole point of tape extensions is to have a damage-free semi-permanent hair extension method. Be sure to know your tape before it goes into your hair!
HOW MANY ARE PIECES RECOMMENDED FOR A FULL HEAD? (For tape hair) or (20pcs/50g for other types of hair)
Here are the following details of how many pieces that are recommended when purchasing the following tape hair.
20 pieces pack:
Many people often inquire about 20 pieces packs as this is the cheapest available pack. These are ONLY considered a ‘booster’ pack for those who already have tape extensions and want a few new pieces or need extra volume. A 20 piece pack will NOT be enough for any hair type as this will only make ten sandwiches of hair. (When applying for tape extensions, two pieces are sandwiched at the root over sections of your hair) As you can probably imagine, a 20 piece set will not be enough for a full head of hair.
40 pieces pack:
The least amount of pieces we recommend for all customers is our 40 piece packs. This pack is enough for thin to normal hair types and is ideal for ladies with fine hair. A 40 piece pack is considered a standard amount of tape hair extensions, as many people find they use between 30-40 pieces. This, of course, creates 20 sandwiches of hair for a full volume. If your own hair is shorter than shoulders length, we do recommend more than 40 pieces.
60 pieces pack:
Finally, the 60 piece pack. This amount is perfect for those with thick hair or wants to add a lot of overall volumes. For those whose natural hair is medium/thick or have quite a coarse hair type, this pack is perfect. We usually recommend this option when we get asked how many pieces of tape hair extensions for a full head of hair. This will create 30 sandwiches which are a lot to hold if your hair is not super thick. Our 60 piece sets will create a full overall look with extra thickness and super volume. We do not recommend more than 60 pieces and will not tolerate neglect of overuse.
Your hairstyle and cut are very important when blending tape hair extensions. It does not only depend on how many pieces you purchase for a full head. If you are struggling to make your extensions blend, your hair should usually always be thinned out towards the ends. This can be achieved with the use of layers or specific cutting techniques. Having thinner ends in your natural hair will create a seamless blend and no harsh lines where your natural hair ends.
IMPORTANT NOTICE: Please test out one piece/sandwich before continues. If you felt, the tape was not strong enough/weakening that might cause sliding after the first wash, you must stop immediately and contact Golden Lush Extensions.
CAN I COLOR GL HAIR EXTENSIONS?
Yes. Hair extensions have already undergone a chemical process and are designed to accept color change. We recommend having your hair extensions professionally colored by a hairstylist who preferably has experience with coloring hair extensions. We advise that a test sample is colored first on the smallest hair extension weft to make sure you obtain your desired color results. We also recommend using a semi-permanent color as it is much gentler and less damaging to the hair extensions.
IMPORTANT: We do not recommend lightening your hair extensions, especially with bleach. We recommend that if you have two or more colors in your own hair, to get hair extensions that match your lightest color and have them darkened, instead of getting the darker shade and having it lightened.
CAN I STRAIGHTEN GL HAIR EXTENSIONS?
Yes. You can straighten, blow-dry, curl, and style human hair extensions, just as you would your own hair.
NOTE: We also do not recommend that you go to sleep or bed with your hair extensions being wet or damp.
CAN I WEAR HAIR EXTENSIONS TO THE BEACH OR POOL? WILL THEY GET RUINED IF THEY GET WET?
You can definitely wear Hair Extensions to the beach or by the pool, however, we would not recommend getting in the water with them (unless you have your hair up and it will not get wet). Golden Lush Hair Extensions are made from real human hair, so they won't get ruined if they get wet, however, when wet, they might get very tangled with your own hair and that would be damaging to both your own hair and the extensions.
WHAT PRODUCTS CAN BE USED ON GOLDEN LUSH HAIR EXTENSIONS?
Choose high quality products, specifically the protective formula is free from harsh sulfates, gluten and parabens as they will keep strands healthy and nourished for daily use. Heat protectant sprays, serums and any other leave-in conditioners or treatments are also very beneficial and will prolong the life of your GL hair extensions.
