What Indique Hair does

Indique Hair is a premium virgin human hair extensions and wig company founded in 2007, headquartered in Boston, MA, and operated as a privately held, founder-owned business. The company sells 100% virgin human hair across more than 16 textures in formats including bundles, clip-ins, tape-ins, sew-in wefts, keratin-tip extensions, ponytails, braiding hair, closures and frontals, and lace front and closure wigs. Products are organized into tiered collections differentiated by origin and processing — Pure (Indian virgin, $159+), Bounce (steam-textured Indian, $179+), SEA (Southeast Asian, $79+), Remix (machine remy, $69+), Hysteria (pre-colored), Lotus (Cambodian luxury, $269+), Studio, and Keratique — plus a gray-hair line, a celebrity collaboration (Chaka by Indique), and branded hair care, tools, and accessories.

The company controls its supply chain through owned manufacturing facilities in India and Southeast Asia, sourcing hair directly from Indian temple donations and Cambodian rural villages, with single-donor cuticle-aligned processing and a proprietary steam-texturing method that produces permanent curl/wave patterns without chemical treatment. Keratique extensions use patented keratin pre-bonded tips (flat tip and i-tip) for professional fusion installation.

Indique monetizes through a multi-channel stack: direct-to-consumer e-commerce on Shopify (primary), company-owned Indique Boutique retail locations, an authorized retailer network, a Pro Stylist program, a Private Label / white-label service for salons and brands, and a $14.99/month Indique Insider subscription. Payment options include Affirm and AfterPay installment financing; shipping is global with same-day express and free shipping above $350. Customer segments span individual beauty consumers (primary), salon professionals, the bridal market, influencers, and medical-need consumers (e.g., alopecia). No revenue, headcount detail, funding history, or leadership information is publicly disclosed.
