As a distributor or reseller, you may have had experiences of importing or purchasing hair extensions in bulk from factories or trading companies in China. Today, I would love to introduce the general situation of four main manufacturing foundations of hair extensions in China for your future reference, which should be very helpful for you as a hair extensions buyer, especially for the green hand.
You can find a lot of trading companies which doing hair extension business in China, especially in Guangzhou, Shenzhen, and Qingdao these cities. Most business development letters to your mailbox probably are from these places. If you would like to directly build up business relationship with hair factories, you probably need to look around these four manufacturing foundations listed as below. If not, please skip it and keep your current way.
“All roads lead to Rome.”
- Xuchang city in Henan Province
- Taihe county in Anhui Province
- Juancheng county in Shandong Province
- Qingdao city in Shandong Province
First of all, factories in Xuchang city mostly manufacture and export low-end products (human hair or synthetic) to some underdeveloped countries and regions, such as Africa or some Latin countries. Workers here have the really high skill to process animal hair and turn it into finished goods. It is not easy for a non-expert to tell the difference between the products made with processed animal hair and the products made with real human hair without machinery test. The hair products manufactured here are sold really well in Africa.
Second, Taihe county is currently the foundation for providing raw materials to the hair extensions industry, instead of finished hair goods. Nowadays, it is hard to buy finished hair product directly from here. This city has almost completed the role transformation and currently play the role of the raw material supplier in the supply chain of hair extensions industry.
Third, factories in Juancheng city mostly produce middle-high end hair products (hair extensions & wig) and export to developed countries, like the American and European market.
Last but not least, you can find high-end hair products in Qingdao, including weave, wig, toupee both for woman and man. Most of the hand-hook hair product which requires high-skilled workers are manufactured in the factories here, where also served as the processing zone of fine hair goods.
