Hello Plant-Based Hair Extensions!
Let’s be real, we love a cute hairstyle on our little ones. From braids with bright beads to colourful twists that bring all the joy, there’s something so special about watching our children wear their crowns with pride. But there’s one thing we often don’t talk about.. what their hair extensions are actually made of.Most of the synthetic hair on the market today is made from plastic-based fibres, including acrylic, kanekalon, or toyokalon and unfortunately, that comes with more harm than we think, especially for delicate little scalps.
What’s Wrong with Synthetic Hair?
1. It’s loaded with chemicals. Synthetic extensions are often coated in toxic chemicals like flame retardants or alkaline solutions to reduce flammability and improve texture. These can cause itchiness, rashes, and scalp irritation especially for children with sensitive skin.
2. It traps heat. Synthetic fibres don’t breathe well. That means heat builds up, and children can quickly feel uncomfortable, sweaty, or itchy.
3. It contributes to waste. These plastic fibres are non biodegradable, and once tossed out, they sit in landfills for hundreds of years. And let’s face it…we switch styles often!
4. It can cause tension and breakage. Many synthetic extensions are heavier and less flexible than natural fibres, which can put strain on young hairlines and delicate baby hairs.
So What’s the Alternative? Plant-Based Hair Extensions!
At 𝐁𝐚𝐦𝐁𝐚𝐦 𝐂𝐚𝐫𝐞™, we believe our children deserve better. That’s why we’ve created plant-based hair extensions made from fibres like plantain and banana stems...yes real plants!
