There is a lot of decision making when it comes to choosing your perfect set of hair extensions. One of them is deciding what kind of hair will last the longest and stay in the best condition. I am sure most women on the hair extension hunt have come across the term Indian hair extensions and European hair extensions.

We personally think girls like the idea of European hair more than understanding the term itself. What do you really know about the hair types? This blog by ZALA will explain the benefits of Indian hair extensions.

Five benefits of Indian hair extensions

Indian Hair vs. European Hair

Indian hair extensions are commonly thought to be of a lesser grade than European Hair. This is simply not true. Women often think of European as a designer and high class, however, this theory does not always relate to hair extensions. Some brands have been known to advertise their Indian Remy grade hair extensions as European. This is simply because they believe customers will think Indian hair extensions are of lower quality but the European image attracts more customers.
