Sister's, Let's Talk About Synthetic Wig Hair Safety

Posted by Pamela Shaddock on

A recent Consumer Reports study on synthetic braiding hair has raised concerns that extend to synthetic wigs. Here's what you need to know to make informed choices.

Key Study Findings

  • Premium fibers (like Kanekalon) are safer options

  • PVC fibers are the primary concern

  • Third-party certification ensures product safety

Our Commitment

Coils to Locs wigs are made with premium Japanese fibers similar to Kanekalon. Our manufacturer uses third-party certification to verify safety standards.


 

Premium vs. Poor Quality: What to Look For

✅ PREMIUM QUALITY WIGS

❌ AVOID THESE FEATURES

✅ Made with premium Japanese fibers

❌ Plastic or artificial appearance

✅ Soft, human hair-like texture

❌ Strong chemical smell

✅ Natural-looking shine

❌ Unnaturally shiny or overly glossy

✅ No chemical odor

❌ Stiff, unnaturally hard texture

 


 

Why Choose Coils to Locs?

Our wigs meet all premium quality standards identified in the Consumer Reports study. Our wig hair is made using Japanese fiber technology that looks and feels like real hair;  not smelly, plastic, or unnatural looking. Our manufacturer has verified that they use a third-party safety certification process.

Shop with confidence. We'll continue to keep you updated as we finalize additional certifications with our manufacturer.
