Step 1: Sourcing
We are a family owned and run manufacturing company based in the Philadelphia area with Distributors in New York & Washington DC commited to ethical sourcing of our hair and avoiding the use of unscrupulous hair dealers. Unlike many companies that have no active involement with the dourcing of their hair and rather leave it to third parties, many of which they have never met, we employ our own prcourement team, giving us more control over the quality and sourcing of our hair. Our reputation for properly sourcing the best Remy Human hair on the market coupled with our professional U.S. based business operations, leads us to be frequently asked by other manufacturers to act as the supplier for their bulk hair needs.
Step 2: Manufacturing
Selection & Initial Inspection
The hair begins its journey into our extensions at one of 6 Indian Temples, most notably the famous Tirumala Venkateswara Temple (known for its ethical use of funds raised in its hair auction for the betterment of the surrounding community). The hair is hand selected by our own "Acquisition Team" accompanied by a senior principal, then transported to our manufacturing and inspection facilities where it is inspected for any knits, inverted cuticles, henna and other foreign substances that could impact the integrity of our extensions and their versatility. As good as our Acquisition Department is, as much as 25% or more of the hair is still, upon closer inspection, deemed "unfit" for RC Extensions and re-sold into the market for those with lower standards.
Washing, Wefting & Colring
Once the hair has passed the initial inspection process, it is sorted into two categories: Remy Human Hair and Virgin Remy Human hair, the former being used for our ProLine™ and the latter our RC Pure™. Both are then gently hand washed and conditioned. The RC PURE™ hair is then wefted while the ProLine™ hair is gently colored and textured into one of more than 50 combinations.
Final Inspection
Following the manufacturing process, both our ProLine™ and RC PURE™ extensions are once again inspected by hand at a separate facility to ensure no impurities exist in the hair, nor defects in the craftsmanship. After passing this second inspection the hair is packaged in a protective tissue paper and placed in our velvet product bags the same day the extensions are shipped to our customers. This process ensures that the extensions are left to breath up until the day they shipped to the customer.
This is a very detailed and time-consuming process because every little detail makes a difference between average hair extensions and RC's Extensions. It is this rigorous inspection process that ensures the quality of the product you see does not change, month after month, year after year.
