___ ___ ___
Not necessarily. Below is a list of pros and cons.
Cons

If a retailer offers cuticle-aligned virgin hair at an inexpensive price, chances are that the hair has been chemically or mechanically treated or the product includes fallen hair. If price is a critical consideration, you may want to explore options other than virgin hair.
2. Virgin hair patterns vary. Just as no two hair donors are the same, their hair patterns differ as well. If consistent hair pattern and performance is a critical consideration, you may want to explore options other than virgin hair.
3. Virgin hair can be difficult to blend with your own hair. Hair that isn't virgin can be chemically processed to mimic any hair type. Although virgin hair is available in a variety of hair patterns, textures and lusters, certain hair types can be scarce. If immediate availability of a certain hair type is of critical consideration, you may want to explore options other than virgin hair.
Pros
1. Virgin hair, when properly cared for, can last for a year or longer. Because virgin hair is generally healthier hair, it has the ability to withstand chemical applications and mechanical treatments. For many, the longevity of the hair proves a worthwhile investment that results in cost savings over time. If quality is a critical consideration, virgin hair may be your best option.
2. Virgin hair is more versatile. Unlike hair patterns that have been chemically or mechanically induced, virgin hair can be straightened using repeated heat applications and the natural hair pattern is not diminished. If flexibility is a critical consideration, virgin hair may be your best option.
3. Virgin hair acts and looks like real hair. Because it is. If natural looking hair extensions is a critical consideration, virgin hair may be your best option.
