Wholesale hair extensions

Made in our own workshop, not bought in and rebadged

PLUCHARM manufactures human hair extensions in Juancheng, Heze, Shandong, and
sells wholesale hair extensions direct from that workshop. Every method on this
page is produced by us. That single fact changes what you can actually buy:
specifications are yours to set, colours are matched to your ring rather than to
ours, and a quality problem is fixed at the source instead of being argued about
through a middleman who never touched the hair.

Thirteen methods on one quality standard

We build wefts, tapes and strand methods on the same 12A grade, cuticle-aligned
hair, all colour-matched to a single shade ring. That matters commercially: an
account can order across several methods and the colours will match, so a client
can have tape-in volume plus a weft row and not see a difference under salon
lighting.

What wholesale pricing means here

Wholesale hair extensions normally pass through several hands before they reach
a salon. We sell from the point of manufacture, which takes the distributor margin
out of your cost. Our published single-set prices run from $176 to $272
per 100 g set depending on the method; trade orders are quoted per
account, because the real trade price depends on the method mix, the quantity and
whether you need custom colour or custom packaging.

If you want to know what a specific specification costs, send the method, the
lengths, the shades and the quantity, and we will quote it. There is no reason to
guess, and no reason for us to make you sit through a call to find out.

Minimum order and lead time

MOQ is the first question every new buyer asks, and the honest answer is that it
depends on what you are ordering. In-stock shades in a standard method can be
ordered in small quantities — deliberately, because we would rather you test the
grade on a small order than commit to a large one and discover it is not what your
clients want. Custom colour, custom length and private label carry a higher
minimum, because those goods are made to your specification and cannot be sold to
another account.

Typical lead time is 5–10 days for in-stock tape and machine wefts, 7–12 days
for hand-tied wefts and strand methods, and 2–3 weeks for moulded or fully custom work.
Repeat runs are faster once your specification is on file.

Freight to the United States and Europe

We ship to the United States and to every country in Europe on a weight-based
ladder rather than a flat rate, so you pay for the weight you actually order:

A single 100 g set therefore ships for $35. A three-set order at 480 g
chargeable weight ships for $55. There is no free-shipping threshold and no
inflated flat rate, which matters when you are comparing landed cost
between suppliers rather than headline price. Buyers in the United States should
also factor in whatever import duty their market applies to the origin of
shipment, and we are happy to give you the paperwork your forwarder needs.

Private label, OEM and ODM

If you sell under your own brand, we manufacture to your specification rather
than ours: your method, your lengths, your shades matched to your existing colour
ring, your tags, your packaging, your barcode. OEM means you bring the
specification and we make to it. ODM means you bring the market position and we
develop the specification with you.

Most brands start OEM on one proven method and move to ODM once they know which
specifications their customers reorder — doing it in that order de-risks the first
run. The full process, including sample approval, is set out on
private label hair extensions.

What “12A cuticle-aligned” actually means

Grade numbers are used loosely in this trade, so it is worth saying what ours
means in practice. Cuticle-aligned means every strand runs the same direction,
root to tip, with the cuticle layer left intact and pointing the same way. That is
what stops hair tangling: cuticles that run in opposite directions catch on each
other, and cuticles that have been stripped away chemically leave a lighter bundle
that mats within weeks.

Aligning the cuticle is slower and costs more, which is why stripped hair is
common in the lower price bands. It also means the hair takes colour evenly and
tolerates heat styling, because the protective layer is still there. The 12A grade
refers to the density and length consistency of the bundle — how much of the
weight is long hair and how much is shorter hair that was drawn to the same
length. A bundle that is “single drawn” carries more short hair for the same
weight; ours is drawn to keep the ends thick.

Where the hair comes from, and why it is not the only question

Our processing is in Shandong, where Chinese hair processing has been
concentrated for decades. Buyers often ask whether Vietnamese, Indian or Chinese
hair is “better”, and the truthful answer is that origin determines the natural
characteristics — texture, thickness, how the hair responds to colour — while the
grade and the cuticle treatment determine whether it lasts. Two bundles from the
same origin can differ more than two bundles from different origins.

So the useful questions are about the process, not the passport: is the cuticle
intact and aligned, how is the bundle drawn, is the colour ring physically
matched, and what happens if a batch does not meet the specification. Those are the
questions we answer with a sample rather than a claim.

Who we supply

Three kinds of account buy wholesale hair extensions from us, and they need
different things. Salons install themselves, so they care about
installation time per client and how much of a pack gets wasted on a shorter
install — which is why cut-anywhere wefts matter to them.
Hair brands need a manufacturer behind their label, consistent
specifications across repeat runs, and packaging that matches their brand, which is
why private label is usually where the relationship starts.
Distributors and salon networks buy across several methods and
need one colour standard to hold across every location they supply.

Buying direct, or through a distributor

Both routes are legitimate, and the right one depends on what you are actually
buying. The mistake is choosing on unit price alone, because the two routes are not
selling the same thing.

What a distributor adds. A good distributor holds stock in your
market, so you can reorder in days rather than weeks. They will sell in small
quantities, which suits a salon testing a new shade. They may extend credit terms,
and they absorb the import process — duty, clearance and the paperwork are their
problem rather than yours. For a buyer whose constraint is cash flow or speed, that
is worth paying for.

What that margin buys and costs. The distributor’s margin sits
between the factory price and your cost. More importantly, a distributor cannot
change a specification: the method, the weight tolerance and the shade reference are
set upstream, and a trader is relaying your request rather than making the goods. If
a lot is wrong, the distributor can replace it but cannot tell you why it happened,
because the answer is on a production floor they do not own.

When buying direct makes sense. If you need a specification that
does not exist in a catalogue — your lengths, your shades matched to your existing
colour ring, your packaging, your tags — direct is the only route that can deliver
it, because those are manufacturing decisions. It also becomes the cheaper route
once volume is steady, since the distributor margin comes out of your cost.

What you take on by buying direct. You become the importer. Freight,
duty, clearance and the receiving inspection are yours. Lead time is measured in
production runs rather than in stock on a shelf. Those are real costs, and a supplier
who does not mention them is selling you a comparison you cannot use.

A practical test: ask both routes for landed cost on the same specification,
including freight and duty, and ask what each will do if the lot does not match it.
The answers separate the routes faster than any price list.

A first import, step by step

The first order is where most of the risk sits, and almost all of it is
sequencing. This is the order we run it in, and why each step exists.

  1. Fix the specification before you ask for a price. Method, length,
    shade, weight per set and packaging. A price given against a vague brief is not a
    price, it is a placeholder, and it is the reason quotes from different suppliers
    cannot be compared.
  2. Get a physical sample. Photographs are retouched and colour reads
    differently on every screen. A sample is also the only way to wash and heat-test the
    hair before you are committed. How we handle that is set out on our
    sample
    evaluation page    .
  3. Confirm quantity and lead time in writing. In-stock shades in a
    standard method can be ordered in small quantities. Custom colour, custom length and
    private label carry a higher minimum, because those goods are made to your
    specification and cannot be sold to another account. Typical lead time is 5–10 days
    for in-stock tape and machine wefts, 7–12 days for hand-tied wefts and strand
    methods, and 2–3 weeks for moulded or fully custom work.
  4. Budget freight on weight, not on a flat rate. We charge US$35 for
    the first 300 g and US$20 for each further 300 g. A single 100 g set therefore ships
    for $35; a three-set order at 480 g chargeable weight ships for $55.
  5. Establish who is the importer of record. Buying direct means the
    duty and clearance in your market are yours to handle, and the rate depends on the
    origin of shipment rather than on the supplier’s preference. We provide the commercial
    invoice and packing list your forwarder needs, and the market pages set out the
    current position: USA,
    UK, Germany,
    France.
  6. Inspect on arrival, before you install anything. Check the weight
    per set against the specification, check the shade against the approved reference, and
    check the seam on a sample piece. Installing, cutting or colouring the goods is what
    closes the claim window, because after that the consignment can no longer be assessed
    as delivered.

Four of those six steps are about information rather than money. A first order that
goes wrong is usually one where the specification was never written down.

When a bulk order arrives wrong

Any supplier can promise quality. The question worth asking is what happens on the
day a delivery does not match the specification, and who pays for it. Ours is
deliberately unglamorous.

Report within 7 days of delivery. The window runs from the delivery
date recorded by the carrier, not from the order or dispatch date, and it is counted in
calendar days. If the seventh day falls on a day our office is closed, contact us on the
next working day and the claim is still inside the window. This is the single deadline
that matters: raised inside it, every remedy is available; raised after it, the
consignment can no longer be assessed as delivered, so the options narrow.

Do not install, cut, colour or wash the goods first. A defect that
has been through a colour service or a fitting cannot be separated from what the
service did to it. Keep the packaging, keep the batch and shade reference from the
pack, and photograph the issue in daylight before anything is altered.

Tell us the three things we will ask for. Which set or sets are
affected — with the batch reference if it is on the pack. What the deviation is:
weight short of specification, shade off the approved reference, seam failure,
shedding, or matting after the first wash. And what you want: replacement of the
affected sets, a credit against them, or a return. Being specific shortens this from a
correspondence into a decision.

Return freight is paid by the customer. That covers sending the
goods back from your premises, plus any duty or handling on the return leg. Outbound
freight is a separate charge under the shipping policy. We state this plainly because
it is a term, not a penalty — and because a supplier who hides it has simply moved the
cost into the unit price.

What we will not do is promise a blanket replacement in advance. A
claim is an assessment of a specific lot against a specific written specification, and
the specification is what makes the assessment possible. Where an order was never
specified in writing, the first job is to establish what the agreed standard actually
was — which is why we ask for the specification to be fixed before production rather
than after a dispute.

How to choose a wholesale hair extensions supplier

Most buying mistakes in this trade come from comparing the wrong number. Five
things worth checking before you place a first order:

Before any first order, run the same checks we expect buyers to run on us: how to verify a hair extension supplier — contracting party, bank account name, paid sample, written specification.

Frequently asked

What is the minimum order for wholesale hair extensions?

It depends on the method and whether you need a custom colour. In-stock shades
can be ordered in small quantities so you can test the grade; custom production
runs carry a higher minimum because they are made to order and cannot be resold to
another account.

Can you match my existing colour ring?

Yes. Send us your ring or a physical sample and we match to it rather than to
our own standard shade numbers, so your existing shade numbering stays intact.

Do you supply salons directly, or only distributors?

Both. A single salon and a national distributor are quoted on the same price
logic — the difference is volume, not channel.

How much does shipping cost?

Freight is charged on chargeable weight: US$35 for the first 300 g and US$20 for
each further 300 g, to the United States and to every country in Europe. A 100 g
set ships for $35.

How long does an order take?

5–10 days for in-stock tape and machine wefts, 7–12 days for hand-tied wefts and
strand methods, 2–3 weeks for moulded or fully custom work. Repeat runs are faster.

Can I order a sample before committing?

Yes, and we would rather you did. Samples are how you verify the grade and the
colour before a production run, and in-stock shades can be ordered in small
quantities precisely so that first order does not have to be a large one.

What grade is the hair?

12A, cuticle-aligned and cut single-direction, colour-matched to one physical
shade ring across all thirteen methods.

What happens if a bulk order arrives defective?

Report it within 7 days of the delivery date recorded by the carrier, before the goods are installed, cut, coloured or washed, and keep the packaging and the batch reference. Tell us which sets are affected, what the deviation is against the written specification, and whether you want replacement, credit or a return. Return freight is paid by the customer; outbound freight is a separate charge.

How do I know you are a factory and not a trader?

Ask for the things a trader cannot produce: a written specification they can hold a tolerance against, a batch or shade reference that ties a delivery back to a production run, and a named person who can answer why a specific lot deviated. A trader relays your request upstream. Our inspection points and what is checked at each one are set out on the factory quality control page.

Can I import without a freight forwarder?

On small orders, often yes — the shipment moves on a courier service and you clear it as the importer of record. As weight rises, a forwarder usually pays for itself in clearance and duty handling. Either way the commercial invoice and packing list have to match the goods, and we provide both.

How are payment terms set for a first order?

The terms that apply to your order are confirmed in writing on the quotation and on the order confirmation, and they are confirmed before you pay rather than after. We do not take payment against a verbal agreement, and we would rather spend the extra message setting out what is included than leave a term to be assumed. If a term matters to your accounting — who pays freight, what the claim window is, what happens on a return — ask for it to be stated on the document that governs the order.

Talk to a person, not a form

Tell us the method, the lengths, the shades and the quantity you need, and we
will quote it and send a sample if you want one. If you are still deciding which
method suits your clients, say so — the process pages above explain what each one
is actually good at, which is a more useful starting point than a price list.
Contact us, or go straight to
private label hair extensions if you already know you want your
own brand on the pack.

Where we ship, and what it costs to land

Freight is charged on chargeable weight — US$35 for the first 300 g and US$20 for each further 300 g — to the United States and to every country in Europe. What differs by market is the import tax treatment, because the US, UK and EU regimes are not the same. Each market page sets out the current position and what to budget for:
