Exclusive Seamless I-Tips

Our Exclusive Seamless I-Tip Hair Extensions are the most lightweight, discreet extensions designed for professional microlink installations. Made with high-quality Remy human hair, the slim attachment point helps create natural-looking length and fullness without the bulk of a traditional weft installation.

These Seamless I-Tips are especially well suited for fine to medium-density hair, shorter natural hair, and if you prefer a lightweight microlink application. Their discreet construction allows the extensions to move naturally and makes it easier to run your fingers through the hair once properly installed.

The European Medium texture is a straight hair texture with a smooth, natural finish. It is designed to blend best with naturally straight to lightly textured hair and professionally relaxed hair. The extensions can be worn straight or curled and heat styled to create your desired finished look.

Each pack contains 50 individual I-Tip strands and approximately 17–20 grams of hair. Because each strand is individually placed, your stylist can customize the installation based on your natural hair density, length, haircut, desired fullness, and areas where you may need additional coverage.

Multiple colors can be combined during installation to create highlights, lowlights, dimensional color, or a closer match to your natural hair. If you are unsure which shade to choose, you can order a hair extension color sample before purchasing your full installation.

Seamless I-Tips are reusable and can last up to 1 year with proper care. During maintenance appointments, the extensions can be removed, refreshed, and professionally reinstalled as your natural hair grows.

How Many Packs Do I Need?

The number of packs you need depends on your natural hair density, length, haircut, and desired fullness. For a full installation, we generally recommend:

• Fine Hair: 4 packs
• Medium Hair: 5–6 packs
• Coarse / High-Density Hair: 6–7 packs

Your stylist may recommend more or fewer strands depending on whether you are adding subtle fullness, additional length, or completing a full-head transformation.

The Dos and Don'ts of I-Tip Hair Extensions

Dos

1. Professional Installation

• Always have your I-tip extensions installed by a certified salon professional. Proper installation is crucial for longevity and comfort.

2. Regular Brushing

• Gently brush your hair twice a day using a wide-tooth comb or a special hair extension detangling brush. Begin at the ends of your hair and gradually work your way up to within 2 cm of the roots to prevent tangling.

3. Shampoo and Condition

• Wash your hair every 7 to 14 days using a sulfate-free shampoo and conditioner. Concentrate on cleansing the scalp and mid-lengths while avoiding direct contact with conditioner treatments at the base of the I-tips.

4. Deep Conditioning

• Apply deep conditioner away from the scalp from mid-way to the ends once a week to keep your hair hydrated and prevent dryness.

5. Heat Protection

• Use a heat protectant spray before applying any heat-styling tools. Keep temperatures between 375°F - 395°F to avoid damaging your extensions.

6. Night Care

• Braid or tie your hair in a loose ponytail before sleeping. Use SL Raw No-slip satin bonnet to prevent tangling and protect your extensions.

7. Swimming Precautions

• Wet your hair with clean water before swimming to minimize chlorine or salt absorption. Rinse thoroughly with fresh water afterward and apply a hydrating conditioner.

8. Routine Maintenance

• Visit your salon professional every 6-8 weeks for maintenance checks and reinstallation to keep your extensions in top shape.

Don'ts

1. DIY Installation/Removal

• Never attempt to install or remove I-tip extensions yourself. Always seek licensed professional help to avoid damage.

2. Excessive Pulling or Tugging

• Avoid pulling or tugging on your extensions, as this can cause damage even though they are securely installed.

3. Heat and Oils near the Base

• Keep heat tools and conditioning oils away from the base of the I-tips to prevent slippage and unraveling.

By following these guidelines, you’ll maintain the beauty and longevity of your I-tip hair extensions. Enjoy your luxurious new look, and don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions or to book a consultation with our expert stylists.
