With the evolution of hair processing and collecting technologies, women’s needs pushed hair manufacturers to innovate even more. At first, it was all about Remy hair<\/strong><\/a>, then hair grades, and now we are entering the era of double-drawn hair extensions.<\/p>\n

1 <\/span>What is Double Drawn Hair?<\/span><\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\"What<\/p>\n

Double drawn is a type of hair wefting that makes hair ends two to three times thicker. If you\u2019ve been recently looking at our hair extensions, you may have come across terms like Remy hair, single-drawn hair, 100% human hair, double-drawn hair, and several more. You must also choose how to put these extensions into your hair, such as cold fusion, hot fusion, sewn-in, clip-in, microbeads, tape-in, and more. With all these choices, choosing the hair extensions most suitable for your real hair can be an overwhelming experience.<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s say double-drawn hair interests you the most – what is it really, and what difference does it make when added to your natural hair?<\/p>\n

2 <\/span>The Best Hair Extensions?<\/span><\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Before we dive deeper into the subject, let\u2019s first define what hair extensions are all about. <\/p>\n

The best hair extensions are those made from natural human hair<\/strong><\/a>. Factory workers process and sew hair into pieces called wefts to make hair extensions.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s worth noting that most hair extensions offered in hair & beauty salons or retail stores are single-drawn. This is due to the cost of production (which is less), resulting in a more economical option for the business.<\/p>\n

The strands of hair in a single-drawn hair extension don\u2019t always have to be the same length as shorter hairs left on the weft, which causes the ends of hair extensions to be narrower. This is a common choice for many since you can always cut off the bottom of the extensions to make it even. It\u2019s also easier to install and blend with real hair; styling it won\u2019t be such a chore. That said, why consider double-drawn hair?<\/p>\n

3 <\/span>What Does Double Drawn Hair Mean?<\/span><\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\"What<\/p>\n

To define double-drawn hair, let\u2019s first visualize single-drawn hair extensions. Single-drawn hair extensions are easy to identify because the top is thicker, but the hair thins near the bottom. This means the ends appear narrow and thin, even more so when you have been using them for a while.<\/p>\n

Enter double-drawn hair.<\/p>\n

One difference from single-drawn hair is the way companies approach it. Workers will remove shorter hairs by hand and not a machine. The ends of the human hair are cut so the thickness is equal from top to bottom. Then, they sew everything into a weft.<\/p>\n

Due to this additional process, double-drawn hair appears more voluminous, healthier, thicker, and higher in quality than single-drawn hair extensions. <\/p>\n

You can use either type, but double-drawn hair extensions are of better quality. The reason why single-drawn extensions are so common is that they involve less work in manufacturing and processing. With double-drawn hair<\/strong><\/a>, you\u2019ll have to pay more, but you get the best volume, and it tends to last longer than single drawn hair.<\/p>\n
