They don’t hate India no that’s … atleast the toilets will be cleaner unclogged if hair lol
Here in Africa, Indian hair is loved but guess what 😮 ! It doesn't come from India but China. What India should do is just help people make money out of it. It's a hotcake here not only in China.
Yes, you self-hating Africans hate your hair and skin color.
You people look good hair or no hair 🙏
Synthetic is more affordable and most popular but then after Brazillian hair is more popular than Indian hair in Africa/other countries but if any one has a problem with reselling their hair,they should keep it or destroy it or discard it well after a hair cut not whine about it
In India women are crazy about lightening creams,in the west,alotbof women do plastic surgery,women all over the world spend a fortune for looks and that will not stop any time soon

Indian entrepreneurs should take a note and start making wigs at home it’s a great revenue stream!!

But in India very few people bold so no demand and no business
But we can export those wigs to other countries to develop our secondary sector market@@ketikteks

The whole issue is not hair smuggling, it was unwanted stuff to begin with. However when someone found a use for them , suddenly the Indian authorities want to place a tax on them being exported out. If you make wigs in India for export. Greedy people will still want to tax you (maybe a larger amount because it is finished product) no matter what because they can't bear to see others make money!
My hair was sold by my barber for 2 times than what I paid him for cutting. So unfair
haha smart barber
why we pay for hair cutting ??
It's not barbers it's form temples. Especially South India where women shave their hair for some mannat Or religious reason..
LOL...Finally, you guys got around to this. What is Tirupati famous for??? nah not the temple, it's the hair...
Next time when they cut your hair, you should carry you cut hair home . Then throw it on the trash at home 😅
Not only China, here in Indonesia, I have friend that import hair from India to produce hair accessories and wig.
Because not many country can supply Long Hair with large quantity.

China makes wigs from this hair and exports it world over for many times the value of hair. Even though most of the hair comes from India, the wig making industry here is highly unorganized. An area where govt should support and develop the sector
We are bhedbakris. We can't even do simple wig making from raw hairs and that too with 10x returns. We deserve to be looted, just like Manchester cloth, please colonise us. We are bhedbakris.

In Rajasthan villages, villagers are paid 1000 rupees per kg of hair by agents who go collecting hair door to door. The people do not throw away hair but everyday after sweeping floors, keep them in a bag hung away in a corner of the house.
In Andhra Pradesh 100gms is 1000/- I'm not exaggerating
It's ₹2000 per kg now in kota, Rajasthan
I've not seen it in Haryana. But, isn't it cool to do so ? This way, we can even give wigs for cancer patients. ☺️
Even in Maharashtra's villages.
We get ₹10000/kg

I disagree. Japanese people have really good hair especially the women.

I had initially planned to retire at 62, work part-time, and save money, but the impact of high prices on various goods and services has significantly disrupted my retirement plan. I'm worried about whether those who experienced the 2008 financial crisis had it easier than I currently am. The volatility of the stock market is a concern as my income has decreased, and I fear that I won't be able to contribute as much as before, potentially jeopardizing my retirement savings.
This is precisely why I like having a portfolio coach guide my day-to-day market decisions: with their extensive knowledge of going long and short at the same time, using risk for its asymmetrical upside and laying it off as a hedge against the inevitable downward turns, their skillset makes it nearly impossible for them to underperform. I've been utilizing a portfolio coach for more than two years, and I've made over $800,000.
Mind if I ask you to recommend this particular coach to you using their service?

Thank you for the lead. I searched her up, and I sent her an email. I hope she gets back to me soon.
Many may not be aware that Chinese smuggle hair from India and sell most of those wigs back to Indians at double or 4 times the price.

Come on, India, we can do it! 😂
The difference btn China and India is that Chinese see an opportunity at took it, while Indian see opportunity and asked themselves if that opportunity will also benefit China, and if it benefits China they are ready to sacrifice it.
That's why China GDP is 5 times that of India. And Indian per capital GDP is the lowest in G20, actually it equals to that of Congo DRC which has been in civil wars since 1990's 😂

Ofcourse i called the main office and created a scene. They refunded my amount and promised that they would "safely dispose
Hair". They also told me that they fire the receptionist (but not the one who cut my hair). Wondering how long this hair smuggling was happening.

Because indian women widely known for thick black shiny long hair.

Maybe you are right and something like that is going on, l personally feel, Indians reflect the energy given to them.
Yes Indians and Pakistanis and even Indians and Latinos get along pretty well. Same with Indians and South East Asians. But Chinese culture is too different especially the food habits and materialism@@DoctorJaneDoe
we also know that black african women around the world are the number 1 clients.

Yes, many Chinese men and women seem to have rather sparse hair as they age. Alopecia may be some mild form of lupus, which is a genetically inherited disease. Lupus is called the "disease with a 1000 faces". Indian hair wigs are popular in Africa too.
@MariAmmaSar
Indian hair wigs are also popular in Europe and in the United states too.
What a day is come in era, People are smuggling or hoarding a bundle of cuted hair from barber shop and salon to export other countries. Let me remind a moment to my late grandmother to collect her aging and dying hair to sell their hair from street hawkers and they return them from snacks, toys and etables for their grandchildren.
Hair is a good source of DNA 🧬
I was also thinking that
Yeah so if someone from China wears a wig made from my hair and commits a crime, and officials find my hair at the scene of the crime, will they be able to track me down?
Ny african american friends always tells me give me this indian hair.
Look at Palki's long shiny hairs, you will understand that.😂😂😂😂
🙄 Because Indian women leave their hair long. So you can buy more. How many Indian women do you know that have short hair?

but yeah i thought the same, her hair does seem to be nice
this is a billion USD industry annually. i have a good knowledge of this commerce through a first hand experience.
The mere idea of using the hair of others, who are not even immediate family members, on one's head is so so so revolting.
We need to change this and crack down on hair smuggling and hair export. Invite those wig-making companies so India can supply finished products, not raw materials.

From my observations threw out the years men and woman from India have the best hair, thick pitch black , envious
This is incredible because most Indians about 60-70% indians are suffering from hairfall. We should require these hair more

Chinese have ancient medicine but it was not effective.
It's a flaw at India's part because if we can make quality products and have an easy export system we will be selling it(wig) directly.
