Micro Links system with the I tip hair

Prepare client's hair for installation by using a detoxifying or clarifying shampoo making sure no conditioner or any other product is used after rinsing.

Sectioning

(1) To determine where the partings will start, take a comb and place it at the top back of the head. Where the comb leaves the head is where the parting will start.
(2) Make a parting from that point to the top back of the ear.
(3) Determine where you want your first track to go. The first row is usually from the back of the middle of the ear all the way across to the back of the middle of the ear.
(4) There are many invariable in installing the strands. If the hair is thin and shorter you may want to "pack them in" the first 2-3 rows; this describes installing the extensions right next to each other across the row and section the next row right above the previous row leaving no hair out of the extensions.
(5) After establishing weight for the first 2-3 rows, you can now "brick row" the extensions; this described installing the extensions on every other piece of hair and on the next row above the row you've just installed you will install an extension above an strand there there is an empty space with no extension installed there. The effect will be like a checker board; every other strand will be installed above every other but moved over by one space.
(6) Continue up the head until you reach the top leaving enough hair at the top to cover the last row of extensions.

Now that you are finished with the back you can start work on the sides in front.
Make sure all the rows follow the curve of the head.
You will install about 3-4 rows of "packed in" extensions on the sides in front making sure you do not go all the way to the front hairline.
Start the first row in the front side just above the corner of the eye matching it up to the corner of a track coming from the back.

Inserting I tipped hair extension into installed link

Rest one hand on the client's head holding the sectioned off hair strand with the link now installed, with the free hand insert the pre-bonded hair strand into the link and hold with the hand resting on the client's head.
Enough hair must be sectioned off to fill the link. Once the pre-tipped hair extension is inserted into the link joining the client's natural hair, the link must be filled entirely and there should not be any gaps. If the link is not fully filled, you may experience slipping.

The link & extension have now been installed making sure that the link is not installed too close to the top of the client's natural sectioned hair strand and that the link & extension are installed straight up and down, not pulled out and away from the head. The bond of the pre-tipped extension should be fully covered by the link, the hair extension tip should not be poking out of the top or bottom. It may be necessary to trim the bond on the pre-tipped extension prior to installation.
