U Tip Human Hair Extension Balayage Brown #2/6/18

What are U Tip Hair Extensions?

U-tip hair extensions, also known as nail tip or fusion hair extensions, are semi-permanent hair extensions attached to natural hair using a keratin bond. The “U-tip” name comes from the U-shaped keratin tip at the top of the extension hair.

The process involves melting the keratin tip with a heated tool and wrapping it around a small section of natural hair. This creates a secure bond that attaches the extension to the hair, offering a durable and long-lasting solution compared to clip-in or tape-in extensions. With proper care, they can remain in place for several months.

How to Install Remy U Tip Hair Extensions

1. Prepare Your Hair: Section your hair horizontally about an inch above the nape of your neck using a tail comb. Clip the upper sections away with sectioning clips.
2. Create a Small Section of Hair: Take a small section of natural hair matching the width of the U-tip extension, slightly smaller than the U-tip itself.
3. Apply Heat Protectant Spray: Spray a heat protectant product on the small section of hair to shield it from heat damage.
4. Place the U-tip Extension: Position the U-shaped bond at the root of the small hair section, leaving a small gap to avoid tension.
5. Apply Heat: Use a heat fusion tool to apply heat to the bond, following the manufacturer’s instructions for temperature and duration.
6. Fuse the Bond: Hold the heated bond in place for a few seconds to allow the keratin adhesive to melt and bond with your natural hair.
7. Repeat the Process: Continue sectioning and attaching extensions, leaving enough space between each to avoid scalp tension.
