FAQ
What makes New Village Braid hair special?
New Village Braid hair is 100% PVC FREE. Other popular braiding hair extensions are made with PVC (polyvinyl chloride) which is a known human carcinogen whose building blocks and bi-products include chloride, phthalates and dioxin. These are often released over time and accelerated when the hair is heated or burned. Our hair is different. It is safe for your scalp, safe your children, and friendlier to our environment.

How do I re-cycle my used New Village Braid hair?
If you are absolutely finished with your hair, don't put it in the trash and don't put it in your residential recycling bin. Uninstall it, pack it, and ship it to us!Â
To offset your shipping cost, claim credit towards your next purchase by tagging @NewVillageBraid on Instagram with a photo of you recycling your hair!💚
Can I dip this hair in hot water to seal and relax my braided ends?
