Protecting crochet hair extension samples during international shipping requires two coordinated steps: verify the products before dispatch and select transportation that matches the destination, urgency, and shipment size. International express is generally suitable for samples and small orders, while air freight can serve medium shipments that need faster delivery. Before any parcel leaves the facility, the hair should be checked for specifications, appearance, construction, and finished-product quality.
Shipping protection starts before transportation. A documented pre-shipment inspection confirms that each crochet hair extension sample meets the agreed specifications. The inspection can cover the raw hair, color consistency, length, weight, texture, weft construction, lace details, and the condition of the completed product.
These checks are particularly important for samples because buyers often use them to evaluate future wholesale or customized orders. Recording the product condition before dispatch creates a clear reference and helps identify whether the sample matches the requested design before it enters the international logistics process.
DHL, FedEx, UPS, and other available international express carriers are appropriate options for samples and small orders. Depending on the destination, express shipping can provide fast transit and door-to-door delivery, making it practical when the buyer needs to review products quickly.
Air freight is better suited to medium shipments that require faster international delivery. The final choice should take cargo volume, destination, delivery expectations, and available service routes into account.
Sea freight is generally used for larger wholesale orders where shipment volume is the main consideration. Buyers may also arrange delivery to their appointed freight forwarder or warehouse in China when they provide complete receiving and logistics instructions in advance.

| Pre-shipment inspection | Product verification before dispatch | Specifications for hair, color, length, weight, texture, weft, lace, and finished goods |

International express is the listed method for samples and small orders. DHL, FedEx, UPS, or another suitable carrier may be selected according to the destination and service availability.
Which quality checks should be completed before shipping?
The inspection scope includes raw hair, color, length, weight, texture, weft, lace, finished products, and overall pre-shipment quality control.

To reduce the risk of damage or specification issues, confirm the sample requirements and complete a detailed inspection before shipment.
