EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW about MICROLINKS | MICROLINK and ITIPS Q/A | Simone Sharice

[@peepla7]

For new to links...sometimes the link fails on the first go...so don't get tempted to reclamp...this will make removal nearly impossible.

[@amakatv7257]

Bet no one would see this but she’s been my biggest inspiration in starting my channel

To tighten...open the link... Slide the bead and link up further...reclamp. finish.

[@ljackson116]

I recently had microlinks w/weft installed. I had it installed at a Dominican hair salon near Philly and it turned out amazing. Reasonable price at $95 for 4 wefts. I had more of my top left out. Total time to install and style 1.5 hrs. I actually asked for a partial sew-in and the stylist told me she does the microlinks. Of course I asked her general questions before the install. Do it damage the hair?.How long can I keep it in and can I wash it? How much does it cost to take out? She replied,there's no damage when installed properly. It can last a month or more depending on how you maintenance the hair. It can be wash n re-tighten and of course the takedown is free if they are the ones installing it. The style is very versatile and looks very natural.

[@thepgprincess]

Yes, if you haven’t discovered yet, there’s a hot pot and keratin sticks (that look like glue sticks for a glue gun) that melt in the pot. You cut the hair from the weft, dip in the pot and roll, then let cool. BOOM your own i-tips.

[@peepla7]

U tip is same as I tips...the shape...forms a U. Some like to put there hair in the U so the hair is completely encased in it....then clamp. I tips cost more.

[@anitaacquah8608]

I don't believe U tips are not the same as I tips, u tip requires a heated clamp to attach the extensions to your hair. The u tip has glue on them, it can be a lot more damaging for the hair if not removed properly.

[@peepla7]

@@anitaacquah8608 both uses keratin glue is my point. The difference is the format.

[@anitaacquah8608]

Yes @peepla7 they both have glue on them but the I-tip uses the bead to attach the hair without glue on your natural hair, whilst the U-tip doesn't use the bead but instead the keratin glue is fused onto your natural hair. I'm a trained stylist with many years experience and I've worked with all forms of hair extensions. I'm not replying to discredit you but rather just giving the information I know so someone doesn't get the wrong hair and is out of pocket 🙏🏾

[@cltaylor8490]

Hi Simone, I tried itips too mostly based on your videos. You do a great job. Can you clarify when you say this is a protective style? I always thought protective styles are styles that your ends are totally put up. You are not touching or manipulating your ends. How are itips a protective style when all of your hair is out. 0% of your hair is protected, so I’m confused.

[@sasha9125]

It’s not a protective style.

[@candytoocool]

You can turn a regular weft into an itip? Can you explain how?

[@peepla7]

@@candytoocool it's easy. First get some school glue sticks...the kind that turns purple when dry. Cut the hair right at the track....fluff off the short hairs that's part of the knot...... squeeze a pinch of hair and use glue stick to go over the end and roll between fingers to make links. Now gather a pinch of you hair...slide ring thru...use the loop tool to slide the link you made thru...pull slightly to adjust so that the link is in correct position....not hanging over and not too short in the ring...once in place...clamp it. The purple glue stick is water soluble and rinses away completely on the first wash or when water is added. Also when it's time to remove the hair...hold it near top...slide the hair out after reversing the link.... making sure the hair is facing one direction so you can reuse the hair later. I know folks that use regular glue but that's messy and if you mess that up...it's a waste of the hair...which is why I use washable glue.

If you have the time and patience you can squeezed I tip bead a little bit and pull your hair and put the tip up but that's going to take so long but if your hair has grown out that much then you should just get it maintenance I do my own installation and when they grow out too far I just pay the money for the maintenance
