Fríðgerð Joensen introduces Faroese hair wigs processed in China

Chinese hair is known for its coarse and straight texture, while Indian hair tends to be finer yet very lustrous and dark. Both types of hair must undergo a chemical treatment before they can be used for wigs in the Faroe Islands.

This is why Fríðgerð Joensen, owner of Salon Fríðgerð, is excited to offer a new option: wigs made from Faroese hair, which she sends to China for processing.

“It’s something entirely different that I can offer my clients now,” she says.

The hair for these wigs comes from both her own clients and other hair salons.
