What are Packs of Braiding Hair?
At some point in your life, you have walked into a beauty supply store and had to make the decision- would you purchase a bundle of hair or a pack of hair? If you have not, you are free to check out our article - What are Hair Bundles?
Depending on your budget or your style, the obvious may be to purchase a pack of hair. And of course, depending on protective style of choice, you may have to purchase several packs. Typically, many people purchase around 5-10 packs of hair. But what type of hair is sold in packs of hair?
This may be surprising, but you can purchase both human and synthetic hair in packs of hair.
Xpressions Braiding Hair - An Example of Packs of Hair
However, when many think of packs of hair - synthetic hair is the type of hair that comes to mind. Synthetic hair is made from man-made fibers like acrylic, polyester, silicone, polyvinyl chloride, silk, and vinyl. Therefore, the biggest difference between synthetic hair and human hair is that synthetic hair is man-made and human hair is donated by human donors. Hence, the cost of human hair will always cost more than synthetic hair.
Once the individual synthetic hair strands are created an alkaline substance is sprayed on the synthetic hair to preserve the quality of hair. However, in recent years, many have found that synthetic hair has caused itchy or inflamed scalp, hair breakage, damage, or worst traction alopecia. So, to combat this issue many have used an ACV treatment (Apple Cider Vinger)
Apple Cider Vinger - ACV Treatment
ACV or Apple Cider Vinger has been known to release the alkaline base of the synthetic hair, therefore, creating a healthier yet more pleasurable protective style experience. ( Please note: we never claim to be doctors, lawyers, or scientists, therefore, if you are experiencing hair breakage it may be deeper than your choice of hair, we can only advise that you speak to a Dermatologist)
In the last few years or so, some brands have taken this issue much further than cleaning synthetic hair with ACV they have chosen to create their own nontoxic - biodegradable hair product.
Here is a company that inspires us here at Insure Beauty,LLC.

As the customer, you are free to purchase packs of hair as human hair as well. Human hair packs of hair are typically non-weft human hair- which means the hair is not wefted or a tract is not attached to the top of the individual hair strands. Non-wefted hair is tied together with a band and typically 1-3 bundles are available in one pack of hair.
Think of it this way, packs of hair - is the process of how the hair is separated and distributed. The type of hair in these packs will vary and will either be synthetic hair or human hair. That is unless you purchase your hair from companies such as Rebundle and your packs of hair are formulated from banana stems.
