Presoak In Woolite?

You will find nits in many containers from overseas.

In large amounts, the goods are cheaper but you have to take the dead nits included.

To prevent nits attachment, batteries, and salt violation is 1 of the reasons that some hair is coated with silicone or feel oily when shipped. Remember that most of the hair comes from abroad.

 

If you buy from your local dealer, then you will find no nits. As it is checked by the dealer.

 

If you wash the extensions or any hair you buy (wash out the silicone with shampoo), 24 hours before an install, you will see if it’s crappy or good quality. Ask your dealer to including a shampoo for the hair.

A good quality means that it can be premed or dyed before an install.

If you want to dye it, first wash, because most silicone coated hair will not absorb the pigment.

I have never heard that before for human hair.  A lot of people recommend Woolite and then a soak in fabric softener for synthetic hair though.

Yes...this is real human hair on the mannequins...not synth.

In school we have to work with the dreaded mannequin heads and I always have one or two riding with me in the front seat of my car.  The first week of class our teacher had us soak the heads overnight in Woolite.  Even though they are 100% human hair, they are kind of nasty to work with and they all have nits in them.  The Woolite helps remove the nits.
