It has pores and looks like it grows. 3-9 hairs can grow in one hair follicle. In addition, furs are usually spliced, not whole pieces. Look at the interface, which is the interface between one piece of skin and another piece of skin. Then compare the color, length of hair, and the number and thickness of each pore. These are places where artificial fur cannot be faked.
Method 2: At first glance, artificial fur is either too bright and has distorted gloss, or the hair is tangled and untidy. Artificial fur that imitates animal patterns, the patterns are the same as other textiles, usually repeat regularly and in an orderly manner, and look perfect. Real animal fur patterns cannot be so perfect. Moreover, a jacket usually requires multiple pieces of fur to be spliced together, so it is impossible to be as harmonious as artificial fur in terms of the uniformity of color and pattern.

If it feels rough and lacks three-dimensional, it is obviously not a high-quality fur. However, the price of high-quality fur is also often very expensive.
