Hair Harvested from Chinese Labor Camp Bound for American Consumer

On Wednesday, 13 tons of human hair from a Chinese labor camp was confiscated by US Border Patrol, according to recent reports. Shipping containers full of hair weaves and other beauty accessories, worth about $800,000 USD, were found in the shipment.

The hair is said to have originated from Xinjiang re-education camps, officially called Vocational Education and Training Centers by the government of the People’s Republic of China, where a number of Christians are said to be held.

Christians have often been forced to make products for the western market. In 2016, BTJ published a book called “Christmas in China”, where we shared a story of a leading Chinese pastor that remembers being forced to make Christmas lights for retail chains while he was in prison for his belief in Jesus Christ. The pastor recalled waking up in the dark and working more than 10-12 hours every day in unsafe conditions, often at the threat of being beaten if he didn’t work hard enough. The pastor found it a little ironic that China was making profit from forcing him to make decorations used to celebrated the very same God that he was being punished for serving.
