Title: How to identify hair crystals
introduction
As a natural crystal, hair crystal is loved for its unique "hair" effect wrapped inside. In recent years, Fajing's popularity in the jewelry market and collection industry has continued to rise, but the market is also full of artificial synthetic or imitation products. This article will combine popular topics and hot contents on the Internet for the past 10 days to provide you with a structured guide to identifying hair crystals to help you easily identify real wigs.
1. Basic characteristics of crystallization
Hair crystal is a type of crystal that contains rutile, tourmaline or other needle-like mineral inclusions. The "hair" of natural hair crystals usually has natural distribution and diverse colors, with common ones including gold, red, black, etc. The following are the main categories of hair crystals:
type | feature | Common colors |
---|---|---|
Blonde crystal | Contains rutile, fine hair | Gold, light yellow |
Red hair crystal | Hematite or goiterite | Red, brown and red |
Black hair crystal | Contains black stone | Black, dark green |
2. How to identify real wig crystals
Common imitations on the market include glass products, synthetic hair crystals, etc. Here are several ways to identify real wig crystals:
1. Observe the hair distribution
The hairs of natural hair crystals are naturally distributed and have different directions, and the roots of the hairs are thicker and the tails are thinner. Artificially synthesized hair crystals are arranged too neatly, and even have a "brush-like" distribution.
2. Check the internal inclusions
There may be bubbles, cracks or other mineral inclusions inside natural hair crystals, while artificially synthesized hair crystals are usually too clean and lack natural characteristics.
3. Test hardness
The Mohs hardness of the hair crystal is 7, and you can use a knife to gently scratch the surface, so the authentic product will not leave any traces. Glass or plastic imitations are prone to scratches.
4. Translucency test
Natural hair crystals have better light transmission under strong light, and the hair will show a three-dimensional feeling. The imitation products have poor light transmission and are dull.
How to identify | Natural crystalline characteristics | Features of imitation products |
---|---|---|
Hair distribution | Nature, different directions | Neat and obvious artificial traces |
Internal inclusion | There are bubbles or cracks | Too clean |
Hardness test | Mohs hardness 7, not easy to scratch | Easy to scratch (such as glass) |
Light transmittance | Good light transmittance, three-dimensional hair | Poor light transmittance, dull hair |
3. Popular topics recently
According to the hot topics of the entire network for the past 10 days, the discussions related to Fajing mainly focus on the following aspects:
1. Dispute on the efficacy of the crystal
Some netizens believe that the crystal has the effects of "sucking wealth" and "repelling evil", but the scientific community has no conclusion yet. It is recommended to look at it rationally and avoid blind consumption.
2. Fajing collection value
High-quality hair crystals (such as dense hair and bright colors) are highly sought after in the collection market, and prices are rising year by year.
3. Artificial synthesis technology upgrade
Recently, there have been reports that some merchants use new technologies to synthesize crystals, with extremely high simulation, and consumers need to be more cautious.
4. Purchase suggestions
1. Choose a reputable merchant and ask for an appraisal certificate (such as CMA, GIA, etc.).
2. Avoid greed for cheapness. Most of the hair crystals that are too low are imitations.
3. Compare the actual items more frequently before purchasing and observe the details of the hair.
