PROCURING TEMPLE HAIR ISN'T AN EASY JOB

To auction temple hair, you have to be a big company and should be able to risk huge amount of money. Average "cost of auction" for a temple can easily cross half a million US dollars. So not every company in India has wholesale access to this grade of Indian human hair.

Most of the companies do procure non remy hair which is very cheap;1/10th of the cost of temple hair. Most importantly, it can be bought in very small quantities and the risk factor is very low. So most of the hair companies in India sell cheap non remy hair.

And the case with China is pretty simple. 100% of hair from China is non remy / synthetic / processed animal hair / a mix of them. They have no access to temple hair.

PRESERVING THE HAIR QUALITY IS MUCH MORE COMPLEX

Procuring temple hair is tough yet maintaining the hair quality until it's shipped is much more complex as well.

The recent trend across the hair industry is to do chemical processing all through the steps. For example, nit and lice picking is done using chemicals and it oddly takes minutes to remove nits from 10 Kilo/100 bundles of hair. But the use of chemical spoils the hair and makes it brittle and rough. Moreover, the chemicals damage the cuticles and the shine and beauty of natural hair is lost.

But we at DHWARAK HAIR use painstaking and time consuming manual process; on an average, a person picks 7 to 10 hair bundles per day. So it takes a minimum of 10 man-days to pick 10 Kilo/ 100 bundles of hair whilst the chemical processing does it in minutes. We have no chemical approach at our factory to preserve the natural shine and look. And this is why our bundles look full and healthy.
