I cleared my cache, sorry I see them now. Yeah that looks like some straight up "Brazilian straight" which is just basically Chinese straight hair. Maybe they thought you wouldn't know any better? A lot of this hair does look alike I'll say that much but I just don't believe they're buying "Russian" hair because they don't sell the wavy/curly that's what seems off to me and makes me think they're just getting pre-packaged hair like all their other hair. Oh well I guess we have to appreciate the little victories with these scammers. At least you got your money back for the most part.

It's all Asian hair. We told y'all that last year before all these companies jumped on these bandwagons. Some of it's virgin, some processed, some nicely, properly processed but it's allllllll Asian.

You could've bought a spot during the Superbowl to announce this and there will still be people who buy into the hype. Russian isn't a new origin by a long shot. And there are plenty of Russian hair scammers selling Asian and other Eastern European origins hoping to cash into naivety. Just like with the Peruvian/Brazilian/Cambodian/Burmese/whateverthehellelse. I'm not even sure of why this origin is even remotely interesting to Black folks, its not like it even looks like our hair. Yt chicks only want it because they want virgin blonde hair, the black is considered the chaff lol.

I kind if figures this would be the case with them because the last time I checked their website they didn't have varying degrees of coarseness for you to choose from. Which most of the more reputable Russian Hair companies do have. This lets me know that they could be sending out their Brazilian hair claiming that it is Russian hair but its just the satin soft texture which pretty much looks identical to Brazilian IMO.

Good catch RetiredYoung. PHS needs to be placed on the Do Not Use list.

I had the same expereince with PHS...the cutomer service was great but the hair was crap. Listening to these so-called gurus on YT was a big mistake. I wish I had discovered BHM before I wasted my money and that wild beast...oooppss I mean hair...if you can even call it that.
I purchased the Malaysian curly and it tangled and matted like no other.  I am still having bad dreams about that hair. It's for damn sure not virgin....maybe its an old Vegas whore...cause its definitely not a virgin.

Thanks for sharing. I was eyeing their site a few years ago but never purchased.
