What Makes Our Hair Different ?
The Process
At Jadore, we always make sure that we provide superior hair extensions for our customers. In fact, we have spent over eight years researching our hair extension supplies to make sure we only offer the best. To achieve this, we source our hair from women around the world who purposely grow their hair for selling to the hair extension industry.
Sourcing
Jadore has our own expert hair selectors so we can be confident that our hair is selected ethically from ponytail hair that is of the finest quality. This means hair that is healthy, never been coloured or bleached (virgin hair) and has the structure that can be coloured whilst maintaining softness and a long wear time.
Only ponytail hair is used for our tape, weft and i-tip hair extensions to ensure the hair cuticles are intact and running in the one direction (Remy hair) which prevents tangling over time and ensures the hair will last 9-12 months with good home care.
This process is done in an ethical way where our donors are paid a fair amount of money and we ensure this process occurs with visits to our production team.
Assessment
Once the hair is selected, it is then assessed before processing. Temporary coloured thread is placed at the top and bottom of each ponytail to ensure it remains aligned in the direction of growth during the colouring process.
Colouring
Our colouring process is done slowly and carefully to maintain the integrity of the hair. This is done by our highly experienced expert colour technicians who use our colour swatches each time they produce our products to ensure there is as much consistency as possible. Of course this is still a human product so variations can occur.
Draw/Ratio
A special tool is then used to remove any shorter or inconsistent hairs from the ponytails before being made into the desired method. We perform this process multiple times to ensure our hair extensions are very full towards the ends of the hair, meaning a thick look for less amount of extensions.
Making of the extensions
Once the hair has been cleaned, lifted, coloured, and sorted it is then ready to be made into the desired method. The extensions are then hand-made into either tape, weft or microbead applications. Our technicians are experienced and highly skilled in the art of manufacturing hair extensions. The final product is then packaged and then checked by our offshore quality control team before being shipped to our warehouse in Australia.
Colour Analysis
Once received in Australia, each batch is assessed by our Australian quality control team. The colours are compared to a master sample (a control), and against previous batches to ensure consistency. Each batch of hair is lifted from between a 5-7 level to an 8-9 then coloured to the desired shade. This helps us to get more accurate and consistent colours.
Length Analysis
A sample of each batch is also measured to make sure it is the required length or more.
Draw/Ratio Analysis
The draw/ratio is then checked a second time to make sure it meets our standards.
Wash & Wear Test
The hair is then deep cleansed to remove the anti static moisture treatment that is applied prior to packaging. This allows our Australian team to truly test the cuticle direction, the strength, softness of the hair, as well as how well the colour will hold over time.
Final Approval
Once the hair has been approved through all of these checkpoints it is then made available for purchase. We are incredibly proud of the process Jadore has in place and it has taken over 10 years of trade to perfect the system that we use.
