The Battle To Give Life. Have Gone Tru It Twice Already.

God bless kids.

One such lady, a 40 yr old housewife, has been walking to the temple for over 30 hours in her bare feet. This is the fifth time that Pujari Aruna has given up her hair and she is with her family of 25 members and friends who are also there to get their heads shaved.

She said, “Offering your hair to the god is a symbolic gesture of surrendering one’s ego and a way of giving thanks for your blessings.” Aruna is thankful because her husband, Pujari Nagraja, 45, made a swift recovery after an accident.

Although she does not know exactly what the temple will do with her hair, she has a rough idea, “I don’t know what temple staff will do with it but I am sure they sell it to someone.”



The hair is removed by shaving and takes a few seconds with the average woman’s head yielding around 10oz of hair, worth about £210 in extensions.

The candidates usually tie their hair back into ponytails to make it easier for the six hundred and fifty so barbers to shave it quickly where it is put into a basket and then washed.

The temple at Tirumala Venkateswara attracts many tens of thousands of pilgrims in a single day and although it has 18 massive shaving halls, the crowds are so big that women and young girls can wait in the queue for up to five hours.

Mayoor Balsara, chief executive of India’s largest exporter of human hair, Sona Devi Trading Company, says, “For poor rural women, their hair is their only vanity.

They have saved up to make a once-in-a-lifetime journey. Thousands have made an oath to their gods they may have asked to be blessed with a child or for a good harvest.

Should their wish be fulfilled, they offer their most precious possession as a sign of gratitude.”



Temple hair is much sought after as it has typically never been processed, is stronger and more healthy, has never been dyed or washed with any substance more abrasive than coconut oil and herbal soap and often you will find it has not been cut. And as once where Russian hair was the gold standard of hair extensions, now Indian hair is making its mark as clients are finding that European hair is too thin in diameter for the process whilst Chinese hair, in the meantime, is simply too thick and rigid for use with European clients.

Officials who run the temple argue that the hair would be thrown away if not used and some profit from selling the hair is paid back into the community by way of funding orphanages and hospitals, with an estimated £70 million a year being spent. As for women such as Aruna, they would never dream of asking for money for their hair. A simple blessing is enough.

If you are thinking of getting hair extensions always ask your hair consultant if they have been ethically sourced.

Seen...

By the way, could it be that they've been bringing fakes here? This is cos we mostly don't get to buy them that expensive... Is 40k to 150k up to that plenty pounds mentioned? Maybe ours are goat hair

Whew

May be they've been mixed, not pure human hair. They will prefer taking the pure hair to countries where they can have more buyers. How many Nigerians will spend almost 100k buying an extension that will be used for just 2weeks?

Funjosh:
Head shaved in a Temple to collect the hair then offered to gods and later sold to ladies. May be this is the reason why some ladies like hitting their head once they have it on. Hindu gods are having meeting

Lol....offered to gods.

Or in Africa hair market or salon.

Finally they end up in salons in Britain, pictured, with the average client paying between £790 and £1,200 for them depending on length and volume.

The next part is soaking the hair. The cheaper waste is soaked in acid to remove germs.

High- quality hair is placed in an osmosis bath, the exact composition of which is a closely guarded secret.

A mixture of chemicals slowly removes dark pigments without damaging the cuticles (the outer part of the hair shaft), which would otherwise leave it dry and brittle.

The locks, pictured, are then soaked in a mixture of chemicals making them shiny, elastic and ready to be dyed, with up to 20 days needed to achieve the right colour.

Washing the hair.
