Here in this post, we list out the most frequently asked questions about clip-in extensions we've received. Keep scrolling, you will know all you want to know.
Q: How do microlink extensions work?
A: Microlinks extensions come with small beads or tubes on the top, which are used to attach natural hair strand by strand by clamping with a hair plier.
Q: Do microlink extensions damage hair?
A: The installation process of micro links requires no braid, no glue, and no heat. It's generally considered a relatively safe and healthy way to add hair length and volume. Microlink extensions never damage natural hair with proper installation and maintenance.
Q: Can you feel microlink extensions?
A: Microlinks is a relatively safe way to attach hair extensions to natural hair. You may feel a little weird when you first try them on. But when your scalp adjusts to the weight of the microlinks, you will not feel uncomfortable with them on.
Q: Can you swim with microlink extensions?
A: We suggest not to do so. Although the microlinks we offer can be washed. The chlorine in the pool can make your hair extensions unbearable dry and easy to get tangled. If it's necessary for you to dive in the pool with your extensions on, you'd better put up a swim cap to protect your hair, and make a deep condition after swimming.
Q: How many micro links for a full head?
A: One bundle of microlinks contains 100 strands (about 100 grams). We recommend you go for 2 bundles (about 200 grams) for a natural glam hair look or 3 bundles (300 grams) for an ultra full hair look.
Q: How much do micro link extensions cost?
A: Microlinks must be attached to your natural hair strand by strand, so installing them is not an easy task. The cost of microlinks is more expensive than other hair extensions. The charge for installing microlinks typically ranges from $300-$500 and varies in the area you are in.
Q: How long do microlinks take to install?
A: Since the microlinks are attached to natural hair small strand by small strand, it takes longer to install than other hair extensions. Typically, the whole installation process takes about 2-3 hours. If you want a thick and full appearance, the installation may take up to 5-8 hours.
Q: How long do microlink extensions last?
A: Typically, with proper installation and maintenance, microlink extensions can last for about 8-12 weeks for one application. We recommend you return to the salon every two to three weeks to do some upkeep and reposition the beads every six to eight weeks.
Q: Can Microlinks get wet?
A: Yes, microlinks that are made with 100% human hair can get wet and be washed. But we recommend you wash the extensions as little as possible. As an alternative to getting wet extensions, you can pick up a great dry shampoo.
Q: Can clip-in extensions be reused?
A: Yes, clip-in human hair extensions can last for more than 1 year with proper care. And the extensions can be reused for about 4-5 applications with suitable maintenance.
Q: How to sleep with microlink extensions?
A: Detangle your hair with a comb. Remember to do this gently and avoid moving the beads or the tubes. And then pull all your hair extensions into a loose ponytail and use a silk scarf to wrap the hair before bed. What's more, never go sleeping with wet hair extensions!
Q: How often do you need to tighten the microlinks?
A: It's recommended for you to go back to the salon and make some upkeep or retighten your clip-in hair extensions every 2-3 months.
Q: Can you work out with microlink extensions on your head?
