How To Reuse Your Microlink Hair Extensions

Pre-looped microlink extensions are a truly unique type of hair extension that allows you to add length and volume in an almost invisible way. Microlink extensions, unlike other methods, do not require glue, braiding, or weaving thread for installation. They attach the extensions to small pieces of natural hair at the roots with tiny tubes or microbeads, giving a smooth, natural look that fits flawlessly with your hair. Microlink extensions are an ideal alternative to traditional installation methods because they are easy to install and maintain, and their pre-looped design can even cut installation time in half. With the benefits of reusability, it is a convenient and cost-effective alternative for those who prefer changing their hairstyles frequently.

There are 2 types of microlinks on Ywigs: i-tips and beaded wefts; each has its own unique features and advantages. I-tips are small tubes made of copper or aluminum that are bonded to short sections of natural hair at the roots with non-slip silicone. They are lightweight and flexible, making them great for hair that requires a little extra length or volume. Beaded wefts, on the other hand, use weft hair and attach it with microbeads that are even smaller than standard i-tip tubes. They are slightly heavier and more dense than i-tips, so they may be a better alternative for people seeking a fuller volume look.

One of the main advantages of installing pre-looped microlink extensions is that they can be reused numerous times, making them a simple and cost-effective option for those who change their hairstyles frequently. You are able to quickly remove and reuse your pre-looped microlink extensions by following these steps and ensuring that they last for several applications. It's an excellent choice for those who are afraid of damaging their natural hair and are concerned about the environment. Microlink extensions are a wonderful tool for those who seek a natural-looking, easy-to-maintain hairstyle alternative because of their reusability.

Step 1 : Keep Your Loops

With pre-looped microlinks, always keep the loops after the first installation, so that they can be put back again next time, creating pre-looped microlinks.

Step 2 : Gently Loosen the microlinks

Use a pilers to gently loosen the beads. Do not pull on the extensions or natural hair to avoid breakage and damage.

Step 3 : Slide Out The Extensions

Once the beads are loosened, slide the extensions out of the natural hair carefully and slowly, avoiding pulling or tugging on the hair.

Step 4 : Clean The Extensions

Thoroughly clean the extensions with a gentle shampoo and conditioner, removing any product buildup or dirt that may have accumulated while the extensions were in place. It's important to choose a gentle and sulfate-free shampoo. Sulfates can strip the extensions of their natural oils, causing them to become dry and brittle. Look for shampoos that are specifically formulated for hair extensions or for color-treated hair, as they're often gentle and moisturizing. When washing your microlinks, be sure to avoid rubbing or scrubbing too vigorously, as this can cause tangling and damage to the hair. Instead, gently massage the shampoo into the hair and use a wide-toothed comb to gently detangle any knots.

Step 5 : Store The Extensions

Store the clean and dry extensions in a cool, dry place until you are ready to reuse them. Store the microlinks in a small container, such as a jewelry box or a plastic bag with a zipper. Make sure the container is clean and dry before putting the microlinks inside. Moreover, you should store the container in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or heat. Avoid storing them in humid areas, as this can cause the microlinks to rust or deteriorate.

Step 6 : Re-loop The Extensions

When you are ready to reuse the extensions, use a specialized microlink tool to re-loop the extensions onto the loops and then onto the natural hair.
