Djibouti | Mannequin heads commonly used in hair salons

Hair salon mannequins are commonly categorized into three types: all-natural hair, mixed hair, and synthetic hair, each suitable for different practice needs.

1. All-natural Hair Mannequin: Closest to Real Hair Experience

Features: Made of 100% real human hair, with intact cuticle structure; can be permed, dyed, cut, and bleached; reacts almost identically to real hair.

Suitable Scenarios: Advanced technique practice such as color mixing, hair dyeing, and precision cutting training.

2. Mixed Hair Mannequin: Cost-Effective Choice

Features: A blend of real human hair and high-temperature fiber (e.g., 50% real human hair + 50% synthetic fiber), retaining a certain degree of realism; heat-resistant; can be repeatedly styled.

Suitable Scenarios: Daily braiding, updos, and curling iron styling practice; suitable for beginners as a transitional use.

3. Synthetic Hair Mannequin: First Choice for Beginners

Features: Made entirely of synthetic fiber; low cost; rich colors; cannot be dyed but can be permed and cut.
