There are almost 6 to 7 different grades of quality within human-hair wigs. We used 100% Human Hair in our wigs, which is sourced from the temples in South India. This is one of the most pure sources of Human Hair and also one of the costliest but for a reason.

Ladies Wig as a product is supposed to be used by those who have total or close to total baldness. A wig covers your entire scalp and so, there is no question of merging your existing hair with the hair on the wig. However, a Hair Patch or a Hair Replacement System for women is a product which is meant for those who are suffering from partial baldness or hair thinning in the crown area. In this, we customize a Hair Patch / Hair System only for your bald and thin area and we match the Hair Texture, Hair Color and Style of your original hair to the hair on this system. This process is much more sophisticated and requires much more skill because unless we merge the hair on the patch with your original hair perfectly, this will not look natural.
No. The wig is an external thing. The hairs are knotted on the base material of the wig in the factory. Every wig has a life. It usually lasts for around 12 to 15 months on daily use for 8-9 hours. If you are going to use a wig whenever you want to meet people and when you want to be socially interactive, then it may last more than 18 months too depending on your use.
Ladies Wigs are absolutely safe. We are going to give you a wig which is to be worn externally, just like a cap. Nothing goes inside your head while doing so. Hence our wigs are safe. It is also very easy to wear and remove, whenever you want, hence they are self reliant too. All physical activities can be done while wearing a wig like walking, jogging, bike riding etc. Wigs also don’t interfere with the underneath scalp or hair growth too
We provide human hair wigs as well as synthetic hair wigs.
Glad you asked! You will hear a lot of traders and online shops saying that they sell 100% Human Hair Wigs. However, did you know – there are almost 6 to 7 different grades of quality even within Human Hair. There is hair that is collected from Parlors, from Combs and even fallen hair is collected from villages and slums in order to make wigs. There are also instances when animal fibers and synthetic hair fibers are mixed with human hair to make them cheap. We used 100% Human Hair in our wigs, which is sourced from the temples in South India. This is one of the most pure sources of Human Hair and also one of the costliest but for a reason. The other most important part in wig making is the base material. Even if you use the highest grade of hair in a cheap quality base material, the wigs don’t look and feel good. It is important to look at the knotting quality and comfort as well while buying wigs. The higher the amount of hand knotted work, the higher the price and comfort. We have wigs that range from hand knotting work done only in the crown area to fully hand woven wigs! Thus, the Papillon Wigs – look the best, feel the best and are also among the most durable ones.
