Buying a hair replacement system (HRS) online often seems cheaper—but is it truly the best option? Before diving in, let’s explore some essential factors that could save you money and frustration.
Is an Online Purchase Really Cheaper?
At first glance, online prices ranging from USD $100–$300 seem appealing. However, additional costs can pile up quickly:
- Exchange Rates: For example, USD $200 converts to around SGD $272 at 1.36.
- Shipping: Add an estimated SGD $50 for delivery.
- Styling & Treatments: Professional cutting, treatments, and colouring can cost an extra SGD $200–$300.
Total? You’re looking at approximately SGD $522 or more— surpassing the price of purchasing from us.
Are You Getting What You Expect?
When buying online, photos can be misleading, particularly for critical aspects like size, colour, or dimensions. Hair colour may appear differently depending on your screen, resulting in a product that doesn’t match your expectations.
Craftsmanship Matters
Every HRS is handmade, meaning the quality depends heavily on the worker’s skill. Knotting techniques play a major role in durability and appearance:

Unfortunately, it’s hard to gauge these details from photos, which sellers may edit to enhance their appearance.
The Importance of Hair Quality
The quality of the hair in a hair replacement system depends largely on the condition of the cuticle, the outermost layer of the hair shaft. Proper chemical treatment is essential to preserve its natural properties.

- When Done Right: The cuticle lies flat, leaving the hair smooth, tangle-free, and shiny.
- When Done Poorly: The hair becomes dry, brittle, and prone to tangling due to raised or damaged cuticles.
At Aremyhair, we ensure our hair systems are crafted with properly treated hair, so you enjoy long-lasting smoothness and durability.
The Texture Factor
When buying a hair replacement system online, one of the biggest challenges is the inability to touch and feel the base material. This can make it nearly impossible to determine whether the material will meet your expectations for comfort and quality.

Take lace, for example—a commonly used base material. While it may look the same in photos, there are countless variations in lace quality. Some types are smooth and soft, offering maximum comfort, while others may feel rough or stiff against the skin. Without physically handling the material, it’s impossible to know what you’re really getting.
