Dos & Don'ts of Indian Hair


When people order Remy Indian Hair for the first time, sometimes they are thrown off by its appearance.

Remy hair means that it is totally unprocessed...so it requires a little work to get it to your liking...

But once you have it down...you really won't ever go back to anything else.


So...here are some dos & don'ts for taking care of Indian Hair:

1.DO gently wash Indian Hair in one direction with a detangling shampoo. We recommend Shampoos that don't contain harsh detergents such as Sodium Laureth Sulfates. We personally like Cream of Nature Shampoo, Nopu or Shampoo for Dry Hair sold at Trader Joe's

2. DO reinforce the cut edges of your hair with a small amount of nail glue to prevent shedding from the edges of the track.

3. Do use Sebastian Potion #9, a great lightweight curl refresher along with mist from a water bottle to restore wave & curl pattern in between washing your Indian hair.

4. Do use a wide-tooth comb to detangle hair after washing. Support the attachment of the weft when brushing to avoid pulling on your own hair.

5. DON'T use heavy pomades, oils or grease on Indian hair. Indian hair is not used to heavy products and the hair shaft will start to attract dust and pollens from the environment and not behave the way it should.

6.DO use moisturizing conditioners to ensure that the hair lasts long. Indian hair has been cut from the scalps natural oils and you are in a balancing act to not strip the hair of the moisture but not add to much oil to the hair.

7. Do use extreme caution when coloring the hair, although Indian Hair at Sunny's is Virgin Indian hair, you need to gently lift the color or leave the coloring to a professional colorist.
