Human Hair vs. Synthetic Hair for Braiding: Why Loxx Hair Chooses Only Human Hair

When it comes to braiding, choosing between human hair and synthetic hair can make a significant difference in appearance, durability, and styling flexibility. At Loxx Hair, we exclusively use high-quality human hair for braiding. This choice is intentional, as human hair offers unmatched natural beauty, versatility, and longevity—qualities that align with our commitment to providing the best in braiding hair.


1. Durability and Longevity

Human hair outlasts synthetic options, especially for styles meant to last several weeks or more.

  • Human Hair: Known for its durability, human hair can be washed, conditioned, and even reused multiple times with proper care, maintaining its look and texture over the long term.
  • Synthetic Hair: While synthetic hair is more budget-friendly initially, it’s best for short-term use, as it’s more prone to frizzing and tangling, especially after washing.

Loxx Hair Insight: We believe in offering long-lasting beauty, which is why we only use human hair that retains its quality through multiple uses, perfect for those who want a style that looks fresh and realistic over time.


2. Natural Look and Feel

One of the main reasons Loxx Hair exclusively offers human hair is because of its authentic appearance and texture.

  • Human Hair: Human hair offers a soft, natural sheen that closely mimics real hair. It’s also smooth to the touch and moves naturally, providing an appearance that synthetic hair cannot fully replicate.
  • Synthetic Hair: Often has a shiny, artificial look that can make it appear less realistic, and it lacks the same movement and flexibility as human hair.

Why We Choose Human Hair: Loxx Hair prioritizes quality and authenticity, knowing that our customers want braids that look and feel just like their own hair. Human hair’s natural texture and shine enhance the realism of each style, providing a seamless blend.


3. Versatility in Styling

Human hair offers a range of styling possibilities that synthetic hair cannot match, allowing for a personalized look.

  • Human Hair: It can be heat-styled, curled, and even dyed, allowing you to change up your look without damaging the hair. Human hair is also more resistant to frizz, making it ideal for styles that require smooth finishes or updos.
  • Synthetic Hair: Synthetic hair is sensitive to heat and cannot be colored or styled with curling irons or straighteners, limiting flexibility for those who want varied styling options.

Loxx Hair’s Commitment: By offering only human hair, Loxx Hair ensures that you have complete freedom in styling, whether it’s creating intricate braids, adding highlights, or using heat tools to achieve the perfect finish.


4. Maintenance and Care

When it comes to maintenance, human hair requires regular care, but it rewards you with a look that stays beautiful over time.

  • Human Hair: Human hair can be washed, conditioned, and moisturized like natural hair, allowing it to maintain its shine and softness. This care routine makes it ideal for extended wear and for those who want braids that retain their natural look.
  • Synthetic Hair: Synthetic hair is less durable when exposed to regular washing and hair products, leading to tangling and frizz over time.

Why We Only Use Human Hair: At Loxx Hair, we value quality and longevity, which is why we choose human hair that allows for ongoing care and maintenance, helping our customers enjoy a lasting, natural look.
