Yes, our extensions are made out of 100% human hair. However, it is recommended that you select the extensions in your same hair color to begin with, in order to avoid further chemical treatment. Most hair has already been through a chemical process, so bleaching or lightening the hair can affect the condition of the hair, just like it would affect the hair still attached to your scalp. If you must dye or color hair extensions you should buy a shade closest to your own hair color and then darken it to your preference. The less chemical applied, the longer any hair extension will last.
