A lot of little friends are curious about where they spend their money on buying a wig? Why among the same real hair wig, the price can be so different? So today, I will five you an answer.
Intranet
In fact, the intranet of wigs accounts for a very low proportion of the total cost of wigs. In essence, the intranet is only a piece of cloth. Of course, here is the cost price of the intranet itself, excluding the labor cost of crocheting the intranet.
What determines the cost of the intranet is the material of the intranet itself. Silk is more expensive than ordinary ones, but they are about $5 more expensive. The cost of making the ordinary intranet factory that hand weaves the first half of the needle is about 60 yuan, and the cost of making the whole needle is about 80 yuan. The two wigs made by the Intranet can be high-end wigs with thousands of yuan, so the cost of the intranet itself is really low in the overall cost of the wig.
Labor cost
The labor cost is very high in the production of high-end real hair wigs. The inner net of hand-made real hair wigs is made by the master stitch by stitch, and the hair is also made by the master stitch by stitch. It takes 30 days for a hand-made real hair to be hooked, and even 40-45 days for a well-made wig, such as the first half or the whole.
In today’s society, the labor cost is really getting more and more expensive, and the wages of workers are getting higher and higher. If it takes one month to hook a hair, you have to pay workers one month’s wages, but you can think why the handmade wigs are not cheap. In addition, there are few masters in China and not many in North Korea for the crochet technique, which results in more expensive labor costs for the masters.
So in order to solve the problem of high labor cost, all hand-made wigs in China are basically sent to North Korea for crocheting. The labor cost in North Korea is much cheaper than that in China. If it is true that in China, the base price of a wig must be a worker’s salary for one month, it would be too expensive.
Hair raw materials
The proportion of hair raw materials in the total cost can be large or small, because the hair can be divided into several grades according to the hair quality, and the order from good to bad is along braided hair, along sliced hair, along blistered hair, sliced hair, and blistered hair. The best braided hair and the worst blistered hair have different prices. There is also super spicy chicken’s color hair. When you wash it, it will explode. When you wash it, it will fade.
For example, straight braided hair requires that the hair be never permed or dyed. Long braided hair is cut directly. But now there are fewer and fewer people who specially keep long braided hair for sale. Moreover, the growth cycle takes many years, which makes this kind of hair more and more difficult to collect. The price has also increased year by year. In October this year, the price just rose once, directly by 16%.
A small story
I remember a few years ago, I went to the minority areas with my family by train to collect my hair. At that time, the amount of hair per Jin was more than 2000, and now it has risen to more than 3000 per Jin and 4000 yuan faster. There is also that kind of super long straight braided hair, over the waist length, a Jin all want 7000, 10000. Therefore, the cost of using the highest level hair like braided hair to make wigs must be very high.
But the hair quality is very poor when you wash it twice, and the cost is very low. Because this kind of hair is basically the hair that falls off by itself without nutrition, or the hair that is collected in the barber shop. Good collection, poor hair quality, the price is naturally cheaper, the price is about 300-500 yuan per Jin.
In this way, the cost of raw materials for light hair can be 10 times lower.
So, for a wig, the hair grade and price are different; the length of needle delivery hook weaving is longer than that of ordinary hand weaving, and the labor cost is more expensive. Naturally, the wig of needle delivery technology is more expensive than that of ordinary hand weaving. But it’s true that tens of thousands of wigs are sold on the market. Unless it’s super long and straight braided hair, if other hair is not inlaid with gold wire,it can’t be made at this price.
