Micro bead extensions, also known as micro link or micro loop extensions, are a popular method for adding length and volume to your hair without using glue or heat. Here’s what you need to know about them:

Features:

1. Installation: Small beads (or links) are used to attach individual strands of extension hair to your natural hair. This is done by threading the natural hair through the bead, adding the extension, and then clamping the bead to secure it.
2. Variety: Available in various lengths, colors, and textures, making it easy to find a match for your natural hair.
3. Reusability: High-quality micro bead extensions can be reused multiple times with proper care and maintenance.

Benefits:

• No Damage: Since they don’t use heat or adhesive, they are less likely to damage your natural hair compared to other methods.
• Natural Movement: The extensions blend well with your hair, allowing for a natural look and movement.
• Adjustable: Easier to adjust and reposition as your natural hair grows.

Care Tips:

• Washing: Use sulfate-free shampoos and conditioners, and avoid applying products directly to the beads to maintain their grip.
• Brushing: Use a loop brush or a wide-tooth comb to detangle gently, especially around the beads.
• Regular Maintenance: It’s recommended to have them checked and moved up every 6-8 weeks to prevent tension on the natural hair.

Styling:

• Versatile: Can be styled just like your natural hair. You can curl, straighten, and braid them, but always use a heat protectant.
• Updos: Great for creating a variety of hairstyles, from loose waves to elegant updos.

Considerations:

• Professional Installation: For the best results, it’s advisable to have micro bead extensions installed by a professional stylist who has experience with this method.
• Cost: While they can be more expensive upfront due to the installation process, they may be a cost-effective option over time since they are reusable.
