Where Did Always Best Hair Come From?
2013 — It Started in a Salon
ABH began not in a boardroom, but behind a styling chair. In 2013, Jimmy Zhang and his wife Cathrine opened a hair salon with a simple but urgent mission: make high-quality hair extensions accessible to everyone who needs them. Their clients ranged from women wanting fuller, longer hair to cancer patients navigating chemotherapy-related hair loss. What united them was the same need — hair that looked and felt real, at a price that didn't feel exploitative.
At the time, the salon struggled to source extensions that met their standards. Most suppliers offered inconsistent quality, questionable sourcing, or prices inflated by layers of middlemen. Jimmy and Cathrine realized the only way to guarantee quality was to control production themselves.
2017 — We Built Our Own Factory
In 2017, ABH established its own production facility in Juancheng, Shandong Province — a city with a century-long heritage in human hair craftsmanship. By owning the factory, ABH gained full control over every step: raw hair sourcing, minimal chemical processing, double-drawing to eliminate shedding, and final quality inspection before shipping.
Today, ABH products ship directly from our factory to salons and customers in over 30 countries. No distributor takes a cut. No warehouse middleman adds delay. What you pay reflects the actual cost of making exceptional hair — not a chain of markups.
What ABH Stands For
1. Quality Without Shortcuts
Every bundle of ABH hair is 100% REMY human hair — cuticle intact, all strands aligned root-to-tip. Double-drawn for zero shedding. Built to last 8–12 months with proper care.
2. Ethical Sourcing, Full Transparency
Every donor is a consenting adult paid at top market value. Our supply chain is traceable from donor to doorstep. Our factory doors are open to salon partners and wholesale buyers — come see how we work.
3. Factory-Direct Pricing
Most hair extension brands are middlemen — they buy from factories, rebrand, and resell at 3–5× markup. ABH is the factory. When you buy from us, you pay for the hair and the craftsmanship — not a chain of wholesalers.
4. Customer-Driven Innovation
Everything we develop — from our Butterfly Invisi Tape Weft to the XO Invisible Weft — comes from listening to stylists and customers. We solve real problems: lighter wefts, faster installs, less damage, better color matching.
5. Hair for Everyone
From fine hair to thick, from chemotherapy recovery to wedding day glamour, ABH exists to give every person access to the hair they want. We design specifically for fragile hair, thinning hair, and sensitive scalps — not just the "ideal" customer.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is ABH hair really 100% human hair?
Yes. Every strand is 100% REMY human hair — no synthetic fibers, no animal hair, no non-REMY blends.
Where does ABH source its hair?
We source exclusively from consenting adult donors in India, Central Asia, Southeast Asia, and the North China border region. All donors are paid at top market value. We never purchase hair of uncertain origin.
How long do ABH extensions last?
8–12 months with proper care. Tape-ins can be reinstalled up to 6 times (every 4–6 weeks) with fresh replacement tape.
Can I color or heat-style ABH hair?
Yes. ABH REMY hair can be colored, bleached, curled, and straightened. We recommend professional color for light blonde shades. Always test a small section first.
How is ABH different from other hair extension brands?
Three things: (1) We own our factory — most brands are resellers. (2) We use double-drawn REMY hair exclusively. (3) We sell direct — factory-to-you pricing without distributor markup.
Do you offer wholesale or salon pricing?
Yes. Contact us at dedemahair@gmail.com for wholesale inquiries. Salon partners receive volume pricing and early access to new products.
What is your return policy?
30-day returns on unworn, unwashed hair in original packaging. Color match guarantee: if the shade doesn't blend with your natural hair, we'll help you exchange it.
How fast is shipping?
Orders ship within 1–2 business days. USA/Canada 5–10 days, UK/Europe 5–12 days, Australia/NZ 7–14 days, Asia 3–7 days. Free standard shipping worldwide.
