Often times, we find ourselves looking in the mirror, wondering why we cut our hair so short. It's never instant regret, but when it comes to a wedding, or an event to be attended soon after going in for the chop, one can sit and wonder how it would be if they hadn't cut their hair off!

Well, lament no more! ITIPS Hair Extensions are not just a trend, but are here to stay!

Whether you are just looking to change up your look, or if you have medical conditions that prevent you from growing your hair out, Itips extensions can be the answer to all your issues. These extensions are woven into your existing hair strands using micro links or microbeads, which is why they are sometimes called micro link extensions, or micro bead extensions.

How do Itips Extensions work?

The way that the Itip extensions work is by using a hair hooking tool, micro links or beads, and your naturally growing hair.

Your stylist will first wash and prep your hair to take on this treatment, and then, using the hair hooking tool will push your hair through the beads, or links. Once pushed through, and woven into the hairline at a place where it is invisible and voluminous, the beads and links will be flattened using a hair plier.

This makes the extensions fused close to your scalp, and looks almost as natural as if it were growing out of your scalp itself. The Itips extensions create no damage to your hair and grow out with the growth of your natural hair. They need to be maintained every six to eight weeks and can be pushed back to your scalp with no effort at all.

Itips Extensions or Utips Extensions? Which to pick?

Utips extensions are a type of hair extensions that bonds to the strands of your hair. This bonding is done through a technique wherein a keratin tip at the end of the extension is heated. This creates a sealed bond which is fitted in a sectional style into your hair.

This bonded extension needs to be removed by a professional, and though it claims to not damage your hair at all, the use of heat leaves a trail of some sort for sure. Therefore, for us at knockoutvirginhair.com, Utips extensions that do not use any heat at all, will always be the preference. The reasons for this decision are:

• Works for all hair types –

Of course, hair extensions work well with thick hair that is voluminous, to begin with, but not many types of semi-permanent hair extensions work well with think hair that is stringy and not textured at all. Itips extensions are perfect for all hair types and can work with hair that is as short as two to three inches in length.

• No Hot Fusion required

Hot fusion, though infused with keratin in the guise of naturally occurring substances, can still cause damage to your hair. Utips extensions are wonderful and easy to put on but are not better than Itips extensions for sure. Removing Utip extensions can sometimes cause hair to come out in clumps from the place the fusion is done.

• Easy to remove

The micro link extensions and micro bead extensions in the name of Itip extensions can be removed very easily. This process takes a short amount of time and no effort on the part of the stylist at all. Not only can this be done quickly, but it is also completely undamaging, and leaves your hair feeling natural. The extent of the damage is only a build-up of hair products that can be washed away.

• Lifespan

The easiest part of getting Itip extensions is the maintenance of the look. Micro link extensions and micro bead extensions can easily be pushed back closer to your scalp to be refreshed and to last you longer than just three months or so. This also costs close to nothing, and can be done by professionals for the same amount! If this doesn't show you how successful these extensions are, we don't know what will!

• Can be processed

Since Itip extensions use 100% human REMY virgin hair, this hair is susceptible to styling, coloring, processing, and blending into your natural hairstyle. This will help with getting a natural and camouflaged look that other types of extensions can only dream of providing!
