Synthetic fiber is used for several reasons: it provides thebest appearance for those with gray hair or very high gray percentages. Its very light weight and one can have the appearance of a lot of hair withoutheaviness that you get with human hair.  Synthetic fiber usually maintainsvery good style retention as the fiber is heat set to a specific curl patternthat will stay intact provided the fiber is not exposed to a higher heat thanthe curl was set at. The variety of color availability of synthetic fiberprovides for the best bet for a color match to the existing hair and the newsynthetic fibers have excellent color retention and won't fade or oxidize asquickly as human hair can.  Synthetic fiber has the appearance of humanhair, can easily be blended into the growing hair and takes much longer for thehair style to go flat unlike human hair, it dries quickly when wet or washedand always goes back to the original hair style and curl pattern it came inwith.

Once a hair wearer gets used to wearing and working with syntheticfiber in their systems they understand and appreciate the benefits thatsynthetic fiber has to offer.
