Buying blow Ruka

Co-founded by Tendai Moyo and Ugorji Agbai, Ruka Hair is a hair extensions company specifically designed with Black hair textures in mind — the extensions are made in-house by Black scientists and engineers who understand the behaviour of Black hair. As well as offering human-hair textures, the brand has released a synthetic range, named Synths 1, which is also sustainable, due to its biodegradable fibres. The ponytails reviewed in this piece are washable with synthetic hair shampoo, according to Ruka Hair and come in different lengths, ranging from 12in to 22in. The extensions can also be curled and straightened with heat-styling tools , whether from the human-hair or Synths 1 collections. Lightweight, the ponytails weigh between g. With each ponytail, we put our natural hair back in one tight, low ponytail. Our thick, coily hair was in a stretched state, similar to blowdried hair, which enhanced its length and made it easier to tie in a ponytail. We ranked the products based on their ease of application, how well they secure the hair and how they held up after applying hair products oil and heat protectant spray , washing with water only and blow drying. To test the security of each ponytail, we whipped our hair back and forth, in true Willow Smith fashion, when each ponytail was applied to our hair. We were pleasantly surprised to feel how soft the texture of this synthetic hair was. At first touch and when we ran our fingers through the hair, it did not shed. And the blow-dried texture matched our natural stretched-out hair. The drawstring is very well designed — we were able to tightly secure it to a comfortable level, and when we fervently flipped our hair to test for security, it did not shift position. However, the length of this hair 22in meant it is more prone to get tangled but only ever so slightly — when we took off the ponytail, it was easy to untangle with our fingers alone, with only minor shedding. After this, we applied jojoba oil to add extra shine to the ponytail and, although, by the end of the day, it had evaporated a little, there was still some shine left. We did notice the hair was a little easier to shed when wet, which is understandable, as it is in a more delicate state, but this was only minor. We then applied heat protection spray on the hair before blow drying it. Once again, it acted like human hair and absorbed the heat well, reverting back to the soft blow-dried state in which it arrived. This ponytail mimics the texture of straightened hair. As our natural hair was not straightened when applying the ponytail, we did find it tricky. This is because the wrap-around Velcro strap left little space to accommodate our thick hair. However, if our hair had been straightened, it would likely be easier to push through the Velcro wrap, and our hair would have matched more with the texture of the ponytail. When applying oil to the ponytail, the oil evaporated a little by the end of the day, but there was still some moisture left. This ponytail washed well and took up the heat of a hair dryer well, without leaving the hair feeling stiff. When we applied jojoba oil to the hair, the moisture stayed on pretty well throughout the day without feeling overly greasy. A few days after this, we washed the hair, applied heat protection spray and blowdried out this ponytail. The texture still felt smooth afterwards, and, when applied with the drawstring ponytail, it felt secure. There was hardly any shedding, before and after washing, either, even after running our fingers through the ponytail. This ponytail took longer to dry than the Synths 1 ponytails but it did hold in moisture from the hair oil for a longer period of time. We think the Synths 1 blow wow ponytail is the best out of the three, because of the affordability, softness, ease of application and the fact it still feels similar to human hair. For shine, smoothness and damage repair, try the best hair oils.
