Cotton Hair Fibers – Description:

The hair fibers are made from 100% pure cotton.

These Hair Builder Fibers are all Cellulose "hairs’" that bind to a person’s existing hair to instantly make the hair look fuller and thicker.

These tiny fibers are treated with ‘static electric charge’, to enable them securely bind into ones’ natural existing hair and stay firm throughout the day.

Cotton fibers are stored in containers made from ‘highly advanced polymers’, which stimulate/promote static charge.

Cotton fibers are incredibly weather friendly as they can endure the strongest wind and heaviest rainfall.

CosmoTress Cotton Hair Fibers

India’s Leading Dermatologist Dr. Kamal Jhamnani has to say on CosmoTress cotton hair fibers:

Hair fibres are used to camouflage areas of hair loss and work best when the person still has decent amount of hair on the scalp for the fibres to cling on. This works well till the next wash and hence does not interfere with the treatment for hair fall in any way.

There are various hair fibre brands worldwide and the variation in the price is also tremendous. In such a situation taking a proper choice about the fibre selection is very important if you want to make the best of it.

To begin with, the most important thing is what the hair fibre is made up of – broadly speaking the commonly used hair fibre brands worldwide use mostly Keratin and some use cotton and still others use wool. Among the materials used for hair fibres – both Keratin and wool are mainly animal derived products and are widely available. Keratin is by far the commonest of the ingredients in the fibre. Pure cotton (Gossypium herbaceum) containing fibres are very few and this is precisely the agent that gives the best possible outcomes.

The commonest question is then- How does it matter if the hair fibre is made of keratin, cotton or wool. The answer is keratin containing fibres are crude and dusty with small particle size and are easily spilled/washed off. Also there is possibility of contamination with some harmful bacteria and other contaminants since the keratin is mainly derived from animal source. The wool fibres are also the same – it’s derived from wool that is sheep hair and hence the same problems apply. Also in case of both – keratin and the wool fibres – the colors used to color the fibre and chemical based and both these materials are highly resistant to coloring agents and hence stronger ones are used to color them.

The cotton fibres are on the contrary the most natural of all the fibre brands as they are derived from a variety of the cotton plant that is known to grow in arid regions of Morocco. These cotton fibres are negatively charged when compared with the positive charge of the hair and hence they have superior adhesion properties and cannot be easily removed hence the coverage is much better with this than with the keratin or the wool fibres.

Also the cotton hair fibres accept color easily and hence herbal and plant derived colors are used to color them and hence another advantage in terms of the safety of the product.

So, to summarize, the cotton fibres gives you a more natural look with better density with no animal content, no harsh artificial colors, is hypoallergenic, easy and fast to apply with more resistance to external factors like – rain, wind and sweat due to better bonding with the hair.
