The Marvellous
Micro Ring
Hair Extensions!



Micro ring hair extensions also known as micro loop hair extensions are proffered as one of the safest methods of hair extensions as they don’t use glue, moulded bonds or heat to apply or remove. Here are some quick fire points about how this nifty little hair extension works!

What Are Micro Rings?

Well the name says it all, they are simply little rings attached to human hair extensions or synthetic hair extensions. They come in five sizes with the medium size usually being used on average density of hair. The smaller rings can be used near the edge of the hairline.

How Are They Attached?

The hairdresser takes a few strands of hair (think of the thickness of few millimetres) and attaches a single micro ring hair extension by drawing the growth hair through the ring using a micro ring needle or latch hook. The ring is then tightly clamped to shut the hole using micro ring pliers securing the hair extensions to the growth hair.

How Are Micro Rings Removed

Easy, the same micro ring pliers that clamped the ring shut is used to pop it open and the hair extension is extracted. Because of this method, some people use the same hair for two applications. The downside is that they do have to be removed with professional equipment. The use of nail clippers for removal can potentially cut the growth hair… and this site is all about additional length!

What Are Micro Rings Made Of?

In the olden days… 1992 … They were made of metal which as you can imagine caused a whole host of problems when the hair was washed… Fancy some rust with your conditioner?! Nowadays they are made with sophisticated mixes of plastic which mean they don’t corrode or break down if you wash hair or go swimming in a chlorine pool.
