microlink extensions troubles

ive been experimenting with them over the past several months after getting my hair done by a hair stylist who did them my first time. i have a mannequin head and everything. i have noticed mine have not lasted as long as when she did them. i was wondering if any of you had any tips on this. im worried maybe im positioning them too close to my scalp or maybe there isnt enough of my hair in the tube as opposed to the extension hair.

What sort of rings do you use chick and what do you tip your hair with or what hair are you using x

aluminum mediums... & 909 i-tip point hair. thanks.

You want silicone lined mirco-links. everything else is crap

yes line silicone tubes  or threaded tubes will work best.

FYI: Silicone tubes are pretty much the best tubes that will help to pretect your hair however they are highly prone to slippage especially when wet. If you are having slippage and are not using silicone tubes, it is probably because you are not using enough of your hair in the tube to create a tight enough seal, the tubes are too large, or you are not closing the tubes completely. Once the tubes have been closed, you should use the fusion pliers to clamp them again to ensure they are sealed tight. ehairexperts2010-01-27 00:24:48
