Different Grades of Hair

People often wonder how you can tell the difference between Grades A, B, C & D human hair. Clip in hair extensions can be made of any grade hair. Being satisfied with grade C hair is unlikely. The hair will feel different, not last very long and dry up easily. Grade A hair still has its cuticle in place. A clip in hair extension made with grade A hair will look and feel thick, smooth and soft.

Here is a break up showing you the differences in grades of clip in hair extensions -

Examples talk of 18inch clip in hair -

Our Hair is true -

Grade A - 100% Human hair, hand selected remi, cuticle in place and aligned. 95% of the hair is 18inches in length. Which means that the ends of the hair extensions are as thick as the middle and top? This type of hair is perfect for clip in hair extensions.

Grade B - 100% Human Hair, remi, cuticle sometimes in place and sometimes non-aligned - causes tangles. 70% of the hair is 18inches in length. This means 30% of the hair on the extension may only be 10inches, leaving a thinner end, the hair is sometimes stretched to make it appear longer, this is unacceptable for hair extensions.

Grade C - 100% Human Hair, non remi, no cuticle. 40% of the hair is 18inches in length. The hair is sometimes 'stretched' to make it appear longer. This means very thin ends!

Grade D - Yaki hair, synthetic and human mixed. 40% of the hair is 18inches in length. Thin ends and poor texture.

A good check idea is to ask a supplier to explain what makes their grade A clip ins 'grade A.’ Ask for all the details about width as well as length. A great supplier will always be happy to give you all the information you require.
