Add long, soft-black length and fuller-looking results with our #1B Off Black 22 Inch 1.0g Micro-Loop Hair Extensions. Made from Chinese Remy human hair, each individual strand comes with a pre-attached loop and Micro Ring, making the extensions ready for professional Micro-Loop fitting.
Each extension weighs approximately 1.0g, with 25 strands providing approximately 25g of hair. At approximately 22 inches / 56cm in length, these extensions provide substantial length while the 1.0g strand weight gives each individual extension a fuller amount of hair than our lighter 0.5g option.
#1B Off Black is a softer black shade than #1 Jet Black and can reveal subtle brunette depth in natural daylight. It is particularly suited to very dark hair that appears black overall without having the intensity of a true jet-black shade.
Micro-Loop hair extensions are individual Remy human hair strands supplied with their own pre-attached loop and Micro Ring. Because the attachment is already positioned on each extension, there is no need to add a separate Micro Ring before fitting.
During application, a small section of natural hair is passed through the pre-attached loop. Pulling the loop guides the natural hair into the attached Micro Ring before the ring is positioned and secured using suitable professional extension pliers.
The Micro-Loop fitting method does not require heat, glue or bonding adhesive. Correct section size, attachment positioning and ring tension remain important for a secure and comfortable professional application.
At approximately 1.0g per strand, these extensions contain a fuller amount of hair within each individual strand than our lighter 0.5g option. The appropriate strand weight and placement should therefore be selected according to the natural hair and desired finished result.
Professional consultation and fitting are recommended to determine whether the 1.0g strand weight, quantity and placement are appropriate for the natural hair.
These extensions are supplied in quantities of 25 strands. For this product, the recommended guide is approximately 100–125 strands (4–5 bundles) for a full-head application and around 50–75 strands (2–3 bundles) for a half-head application.
The exact quantity required will depend on your natural hair thickness, density, existing length and the amount of additional length or volume you want to achieve. Shorter or particularly thick natural hair may require additional extension hair. We recommend discussing the required quantity with your hairstylist before ordering.
As the loop and Micro Ring are already attached to each extension strand, fitting primarily requires suitable professional extension pliers. The attached Micro Ring is secured once the natural hair has been guided through the pre-attached loop and positioned correctly.

A small section of natural hair is passed through the pre-attached loop. The loop is then pulled to guide the natural hair into the attached Micro Ring. Once correctly positioned, the ring is secured using suitable professional extension pliers.
No heat or glue is required during application. Correct section size, attachment positioning and ring tension should be selected according to the density and condition of the natural hair.
View our Micro-Loop Hair Extension Fitting & Removal Guide for detailed application information.
Micro-Loop extensions help streamline strand-by-strand fitting because the loop and Micro Ring are already attached to each extension. Correct section size, strand placement and ring positioning remain important throughout professional application.
Micro-Loop extensions should be removed carefully by reopening the attached Micro Ring with suitable removal pliers before gently releasing the extension strand from the natural hair.
The Micro Ring should not be pulled or forced from the natural hair while closed. Professional removal is recommended to help minimise unnecessary tension around the fitted areas.

With appropriate fitting, care and maintenance, these Chinese Remy human hair extensions can be worn for approximately 2–3 months. The hair can be washed, curled, straightened and blow-dried, but correct care of both the extension hair and Micro Ring attachment areas is important throughout wear.
Always use a suitable heat-protection product when using heated styling tools on the extension hair. Avoid applying direct heat to the Micro Rings or attachment areas.
Oils, conditioners and heavy styling products should be kept away from the fitted points, as these may contribute to slippage. Brush the extensions carefully while supporting the attachment areas.

#1B Off Black is a deep, softer black shade that can reveal subtle brunette depth in natural daylight. It is particularly suited to very dark hair that appears black overall but does not have the intensity of a true jet-black colour.
Compared with #1 Jet Black, #1B Off Black is slightly softer and less intense. #1 provides the deepest true-black appearance within the range, whereas #1B introduces subtle brunette character.
Compared with #2 Dark Brown, #1B Off Black remains darker and closer to black. #2 has a clearer deep-brunette appearance, whereas #1B sits between true black and very dark brown.
If your hair appears black indoors but reveals a slight brunette or brown tone in natural daylight, #1B Off Black may provide the closer match. If it remains distinctly true black, #1 Jet Black may be more appropriate.
For the best colour comparison, check the extensions against the mid-lengths and ends of your natural hair in good natural daylight rather than matching only against the roots.
