Brazilian or Peruvian Extensions?

Hair extensions come in all types of textures, from Brazilian, Peruvian, Malaysian, Indian, Romanian, Albanian, and even Cambodian. Each of these types have a different type of luster and feeling. Brazilian hair is often sourced from the rural parts of Brazil. The virgin hair is thick, soft and naturally wavy. However compared to Peruvian hair, Peruvian hair has similar characteristics to the Brazilian hair, such as the body and natural wave pattern. Peruvian hair can withstand varying degrees of temperature and tends to curl more when wet. Because of its natural fullness and body, less bundles are needed to complete a full installation. Saving you a little money.

The hair can last a long time if looked after well and doesn’t require a lot of maintenance. The hair curls well and can be used with a number of different lengths and styles.

Peruvian Hair

The population of Peru is a mix of Indian and Spanish immigrant heritage. Peruvian Hair is coarser and thicker than Brazilian hair. The thicker your hair the better it blends with Peruvian hair.  Although the waves are not as tight or curly, the Peruvian hair has a great loose wave that falls easily without losing body.

  • It grows naturally straight, wavy or very curly.

However you should be very careful when buying Peruvian Hair. If you buy too much bundles, your hair may look to full and square.

Conclusion

I personally prefer Peruvian hair because it is nice and thick. I can get a beautiful full look without spending any money on extra bundles. Also it has less luster and will look very natural. Brazilian hair is great also, at the end of the day it is all about your personal preference. Whether or not its Peruvian or Brazilian hair, human hair is always much better than synthetic hair for a myriad of reasons.
