Custom Ethnic Hair Wrap in Madras Cotton with Hand-Rolled Edge for Museum and Heritage Gift Shops

Custom Ethnic Hair Wrap — Madras Cotton with Hand-Rolled Edge

We make ethnic hair wrap built around indian block-print buta, produced in Madras Cotton with hand-rolled edge. On ethnic hair wrap the decision that matters most is opacity, so the cloth does not go sheer under strong sun, so that is fixed in the tech pack before cloth is bought — not discovered on the first bulk lot. Programmes start at 100 pieces per style per colour and ship to Los Angeles or New York.

The failures here are predictable: packaging that arrives crushed and unsellable, and inconsistent sizing between production runs. We lock the specification before bulk — cloth, trim, dye lot, hem finish and tolerance — and prepare CPSIA and California Prop 65 compliance so shipments clear instead of sitting at port while the Christmas market and holiday window passes.

Care, packing and delivery

Each piece is folded, tissue-wrapped and packed to the ratio you specify, with barcodes and hangtags applied where the retail channel needs them. Care labelling follows the destination's rules. We ship to Los Angeles or New York with the commercial invoice, packing list and certificate of origin, and hold the approved specification on file so reorders reproduce the same cloth, the same shade and the same opacity,.

How do you control colour on reorders?
