What is virgin dark hair?

Published in Hair Care 1 min read

Virgin dark hair is natural hair that has never been chemically processed (dyed, bleached, permed, relaxed, etc.) and is naturally dark in color, typically ranging from dark brown to black.

Here's a breakdown:

  • Virgin Hair: This means the hair has not been subjected to any chemical treatments. This includes:
    • Dyes (permanent, semi-permanent, or temporary)
    • Bleach or lighteners
    • Perms (chemical waves or curls)
    • Relaxers (chemical straightening)
    • Keratin treatments (if they contain formaldehyde or similar chemicals)
  • Dark Hair: This indicates the hair's natural color is within the darker end of the hair color spectrum. This generally includes:
    • Dark Brown
    • Medium Brown
    • Black

Therefore, virgin dark hair is the healthiest, most natural state of dark hair, retaining its original texture and color without any chemical alterations. It is often sought after for hair extensions and wigs because of its quality and unprocessed nature.
