Q -What is weft?
Wefts are Strands of hair which have been sewn together along one edge to create a line of hair to either sew or bonded.
Q -What is the difference between machine and hand weft?
Machine weft, the weft is sewed with an industrial machine. Machine wefted hair is fed into a machine and weaved tightly into the seam. It’s of very high quality, solid and regular sewing; consequently you can cut the weft band without losing substantial hair. However, we do advise that minimal cutting of the hair will bring out the best results.
Hand weft is simply tied by hand, this is a completely manual process which requires custom attention to each weave. Our hand tied weaves are sold at premium prices as a result of this process. The weft of hand tied weaves cannot be cut without loosing substantial amount of hair.
Q -How is the hair sold?
We, Khairmax sell our hair in Full or half packs.
We ensure that we weigh every pack to at least 100g for a Full pack or 50g for Half pack.
Q -How many packs will it take to complete a full head?
Typicaly you will require 3-4 packs (300g - 400g) to complete a full head depending upon the look you are trying to achieve and the chosen lengths
The longer the length the more packs that will be required for a full head.
If you are using the longer lengths, i.e. 22 inches and upward, then you may require more packs This is because the longer the length of hair is, the shorter the weft is going to be. You won't be able to achieve as many "tracks" from a long length (20-30 inch) as you will from a short or medium length (10-18 inch).
