Kanekalon?

Hi There, yes its a fibre hair best used for braids or dreads not left loose, i find its the best hair to use for braids as its not shiny or waxy so wont slip out.

Kanekalon is mostly used in wigs also. Most of the wigs I have are made of Kanekalon and they wear very well. The hair is shiny but not "Barbie" shiny and whatever curl it has springs right back after washing. I would not use Kanekalon for extensions tho, except for dreads. A wig you wear and take off and wash once per week, extensions you sleep in and wash more often and Kanekalon dosnt do well under that kind of stress.
