How Our Textures Compare
Brazilian, Peruvian and Vietnamese refer to the texture and processing style of the hair β not its geographic origin. Peruvian and Vietnamese sit at the same premium quality tier. The difference between them is texture and personal preference β some customers love the silkiness of Peruvian, others prefer the extraordinary thickness of Vietnamese.
