FAQs about micro loop hair extensions
Before you begin to learn about this product, you can check out these FAQs to quickly resolve some questions.
What Are Micro Loop Hair Extensions?
Micro loop hair extensions—also called micro ring hair extensions, micro bead extensions, or micro link extensions—are a strand-by-strand installation method that uses small silicone-lined beads to attach the extension to your natural hair. Each strand arrives with a pre-attached loop and bead, allowing installation without any tools beyond a pair of pliers.
This method is especially popular among customers who prefer:
- A heat-free and glue-free attachment
- A secure hold for long-term wear
- Minimal long-term impact on natural hair
- A lighter feel compared to tape-in or sew-in wefts
Why Choose Micro Loop Hair Extensions?
1. No Glue, No Heat — Gentle on Natural Hair
One of the biggest advantages of micro loop human hair extensions is that they use no adhesive and no heating tools, reducing the risk of breakage or chemical damage.
2. Secure & Long-Lasting
The silicone lining inside each micro ring grips the hair firmly. With proper installation and maintenance, these extensions can last 6–12 months, with move-ups recommended every 6–8 weeks.
3. Natural Movement & Flexible Styling
Because each strand is attached individually, your hair moves naturally—making micro loop extensions ideal for ponytails, braids, and updos.
4. Perfect for Multiple Hair Types
Micro loop extensions are especially suitable for:
- Medium-density hair
- Healthy fine hair (more secure than nano rings for some users)
- Customers who want a balanced blend of durability and comfort

How Micro Loop Hair Extensions Are Installed
1. Sectioning the Hair
The stylist creates clean, even rows to ensure balanced placement across the head.
2. Looping & Positioning
Each micro loop extension has a built-in plastic loop. A small section of the client’s natural hair is inserted through the loop, sliding it through the bead.
3. Securing the Bead
The stylist uses pliers to compress the bead, securing both the extension strand and the natural hair.
4. Repeat Row by Row
The process continues until the desired volume, thickness, and length are achieved.
Installation typically takes 1.5–2.5 hours depending on the number of strands.
Maintenance Tips for Long-Lasting Wear
To keep your micro loop hair extensions secure and beautiful:
- Brush 2–3 times daily with an extension-safe brush
- Avoid conditioner directly on the beads
- Sleep with hair in a loose braid to prevent tangling
- Use sulfate-free shampoo and heat protectant
- Schedule maintenance every 6–8 weeks
Proper care ensures they maintain smoothness, volume, and a natural look for months.
