Frequently Asked Questions our Lola's ask

Where does the hair comes from?

We called it international hair. We tested many different types of hair to choose the highest quality for LolaSilk customers. Our hair bundles went through a usage test performed by hairdressers and clients to guarantee that you only get what we all think it is the best.

What is the difference between Lolasilk and other hair in the market?

Lolasilk is the silkiest hair. Pass your fingers through the hair and you will be able to feel the difference. Apart from the silkiness, you will notice that Lolasilk is completely natural in appearance because of its healthy glow and color. Not too shiny…or dull…it’s just right.

Is Lolasilk Brazilian?

Our Classic Collection can be considered the highest quality of the category often called ‘Brazilian’. Brazilian is a type of hair that is a little bit thicker, more flexible and therefore more able to offer a variety of styles. LolaSilk’s Classic Collection has all of that, and more - our unique silkiness and natural look is unlike Brazilian hair you might find elsewhere.

Is this Peruvian hair?

Lolasilk’s Professional can be considered the highest quality of the category often called ‘Peruvian’. Peruvian is usually described as sleeker than Brazilian hair. Our Professional Collection is also sleeker than Brazilian hair, but with that unique LolaSilk silkiness that you won’t find anywhere else.

The most special part of our Professional Collection is that all the strands are aligned in the same direction, as if the hair was growing from your own scalp. This means that, after installation, this hair will give you an amazingly natural look, and will last longer than any other types of hair.

What does it mean to have the strands growing in the same direction?

All hair grows starting at the scalp and follows a natural alignment. Having an alignment following the same curve makes hair that is stronger and looks more natural.Without the friction caused by strands lying in different directions when you brush your hair, you will find that your hair lasts much longer. You can also rest assured that if you want to dye your hair, the colour will set evenly across all the strands.

Is this hair remy?

Yes. Our professional Collection is Remy hair, which means that all the strands are aligned in the same growth direction as if the hair is growing from your own scalp. For more information about it, refer to the question N5. Remy human hair is the highest quality of real, human hair. For this reason, it is the preferred choice for hair extensions, hairpieces, weaves and wigs because it achieves the most natural look.

Is this virgin hair?

Virgin hair has been misused around the world. It was once created to describe hair that hasn’t been processed or treated with chemicals. Nowadays it has been used as the same as Remy hair.In this context, Lolasilk professional is a virgin hair. If we go by the commonly understood use of the word, then yes this is Virgin hair.

How long will the hair last?

The hair longevity is completely dependent on how much it is cared for. For more information on how to take care of the hair, please refer to our Hair care pageIt is important to mention that the Professional Collection is expected to last the longest of all our Collections.

What is the difference between Professional and Classic lines?

The main difference is that, for the Professional Collection, all the strands are aligned in the same direction, as if the hair was growing from your own scalp. This is also called Remy hair.

Is LolaSilk hair shedding-free?

Our hair is considered shedding-free according to what the market classifies as shedding-free.No hair, not even your own natural hair, will be completely shedding-free every day. On a normal day, every person, independent of her type of hair will lose between 50 to 100 strands of hair*. It is a normal and natural process. If the shedding is on this range or below (where Lolasilk is), it is considered shedding-free for the hair extension market.

Our Professional Collection is always going to present the least amount of shedding because there is less friction in the strands when you brush it.Everything depends on how you care for the hair – even shedding. The more you take care of your hair, the less it will shed.If you notice that shedding happens during the night, due to the friction with your pillow, try to tie your hair up in a loose bun and sleep with a night cap. Apart from looking fabulous, you will notice the difference.

Are LolaSilk bundles tangle free?

Yes, all LolaSilk bundles are considered tangle-free. During a normal day, all hair tends to tangle, but the difference is how easy it is to untangle it. If you comb your hair with your fingers and you notice that you can untangle it, then this hair is considered tangle-free. You will notice this with LolaSilk.

If you find that your hair tangles in a way that is hard to untangle and you need to spend a lot of time trying to comb and separate all the strands, then that hair is not considered tangle-free.

How to minimize shedding and tangling?

Shedding and tangling are often connected. This is likely because the hair is getting dry and lacks proper care.The good news is: you can minimise both at the same time, by following our tips on how to take care of your hair.

Does Brazilian hair come from Brazil?

Actually, no. Brazilian, Peruvian, Malaysian etc. are just names created to try and explain the different types of hair. They are actually just different textures and qualities of hair.So, here at LolaSilk, where we have researched all types and grades of hair, we consider Brazilian, Peruvian, Malaysian etc. as categories more than origin-based products.

Does Peruvian hair comes from Peru?

Why are 24” bundles so much more expensive?

The longer the strand, the rarer it is, because there are fewer women that let their hair grow to this length. Any 24” hair that is not more expensive might not be 100% human hair.
