Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) | Monia Extensions

What is Raw Hair?

  • Raw Hair is 100% unprocessed human hair from one donor, all cuticles are intact and aligned in one direction. Raw Hair comes in different textures: Straight, Wavy and Curly. Since your bundles are single donor, no one bundle will be the same and will vary in its characteristics but the differences will not be noticeable enough for the hair not to blend.

What's the difference between Raw Hair and Virgin Hair?

  • Unlike Raw Hair, Virgin Hair has been chemically processed to achieve specific patterns and colors. Virgin Hair has been mixed with numerous hair donors which can cause tangling and matting with long term wear. Due to the hair being highly processed, it will not last as long as Raw Hair.

How long does Raw Hair last?

  • Raw Hair will last you more than 3 years, when it is properly maintained.

How often should I wash my hair?

  • You should co-wash your hair 2-3 times a week. By using the conditioner-wash method, this will ensure that your hair extensions retain moisture. You should continually on a weekly basis cleanse your extensions so that you can avoid matting and tangling from product build up.

Can I bleach/dye the hair?

  • Yes, you can bleach the hair to 613. Raw hair is unprocessed human hair so it can be dyed or bleached to any color you'd like.

How many bundles do I need?

  • For a full head, you will need 2-3 bundles but it will depend on the lengths that you purchase. If you purchase longer lengths such as 24" or longer you may need 4 bundles for a fuller look.
