I-Tip / Microbead Hair Extensions
Versatile, reusable volume and length with strand-by-strand microbeads (no heat). Precise placement and a clear maintenance plan for a natural finish.
What it is and how it works
I-Tip / Microbead extensions attach each strand with a small bead gently closed with a pro tool—no heat or adhesives. After a technical consult and color match, we set grams, length, and zoned placement to respect natural fall and day-to-day comfort. Move-ups reposition strands as your hair grows. You’ll leave with at-home care education and a check-in schedule to keep everything secure and discreet.
