There are so so many myths flying about in the hair industry and online, about what exactly Raw Hair actually is. At Goddess Hair, not only do we taking pride in giving you the best Virgin Hair , but we also take pride in giving you the best info.

Raw Hair is essentially what it implies. Hair Extensions in its purest form. Raw Hair comes directly from the temples in South East Asia and is directly sourced from a single donor. One of the key benefits of raw hair, is that it has not been processed in any single way.
So can you just imagine how soft, bouncy and luscious this hair will be...well we can and we can't over emphasise just how lush it is .
The Hair industry has come a long way...we still have the itchy memories of premium too. :D.
Raw hair refers to 100% unprocessed human hair that has not been chemically altered, steamed, dyed, permed, or treated in any way. It is collected directly from donors and kept in its most natural state—with the cuticles intact and aligned in one direction. This alignment helps prevent tangling and ensures the hair remains soft, shiny, and long-lasting.
Key Features of Raw Hair:
-
Unprocessed: No chemicals or steam have been used to alter its natural texture.
-
Cuticle-aligned: The outer layer of each hair strand (the cuticle) is preserved and flows in the same direction, preventing matting and tangling.
-
Single-donor origin (often): High-quality raw hair usually comes from one donor, ensuring consistency in texture and colour.
-
Natural texture: Raw hair typically comes in natural straight, wavy, or curly patterns—based on the donor’s real hair type.
How It’s Different From Other Hair Types:
-
Versus Virgin Hair: While virgin hair is also unprocessed, it may be steam-textured to create uniform curl patterns. Raw hair, in contrast, is completely untouched, making it the most authentic.
-
Versus Remy Hair: Remy hair has aligned cuticles but may be processed to some extent. Raw hair is both Remy and unprocessed, offering the highest grade.
