Micro Bead Human Hair Extensions
Micro bead hair extensions, also known as micro ring or micro link extensions, are a type of semi-permanent real human hair extensions that use small metal beads or rings to attach the extensions to your natural hair. These extensions are popular because they do not require heat or adhesive for installation, making them a gentler option for your hair.
Here's how micro bead human hair extensions typically work:
Installation: A small section of your real hair is pulled through a tiny metal or silicone-lined bead or ring. The extension strand is then inserted through the ring, and the ring is clamped shut, holding the extension in place.
Attachment Method: The extension strand is securely held in place by the tension created when the ring is closed around your natural hair. This method allows for a secure hold without the need for heat or adhesive.
Repositioning and Maintenance: Micro bead hair extensions can be repositioned by simply opening the ring, sliding it up or down, and then re clamp it closer to the scalp. This makes them a versatile option that can be adjusted as your real hair grows. Regular maintenance appointments are recommended to ensure the extensions stay in good condition.
Advantages of micro bead hair extensions include:
Gentle on Hair: Since there is no heat or adhesive involved in the attachment process, micro bead human hair extensions are considered less damaging to your natural hair.
Versatility: Micro bead extensions can be adjusted and repositioned, allowing for flexibility as your hair grows.
Natural Look: The small rings used in micro bead extensions are typically discreet and blend well with your real hair, creating a more seamless and natural look.
Longevity: With proper care and maintenance, micro bead extensions made with human hair can last for several months.
It's important to note that micro bead human hair extensions require professional installation by a skilled stylist who has experience with this method. They will ensure that the hair extensions are placed properly, and the tension of the rings is appropriate for your hair type and texture. Regular maintenance appointments are also crucial to keep these human hair extensions in good condition and prevent damage to your natural hair.
I-Tip Extensions
I-Tip extensions have a small “I” shaped tip that is inserted into a bead or link before being clamped onto the natural hair. They offer a secure hold that lasts for several months without causing damage or discomfort. Like other types of beaded extensions, I-Tips (also known as Micro Bead Hair Extensions) come in various lengths and colours to match your natural hair. They can also be styled just like your real hair using hot tools such as curling irons or straighteners.
