Add soft black length and fuller-looking results with our #1B Off Black 18 Inch 0.5g Stick-Tip (I-Tip) Hair Extensions. Made from Chinese Remy human hair, these individual extensions feature slim keratin-sealed Stick-Tip ends designed for professional fitting using suitable 4mm Micro Rings or Shrinkies.
Each strand weighs approximately 0.5g, providing approximately 12.5g of hair across 25 strands. #1B Off Black is a very dark, natural-looking black shade with subtle brunette depth, making it particularly suited to hair that appears almost black without the intensity of a true jet black.
Stick-Tip hair extensions, also known as I-Tip extensions, are individual human hair strands supplied with a slim, firm tip designed to be secured to small sections of natural hair using a suitable attachment method.
With a Micro Ring fitting, the natural hair and Stick-Tip extension are positioned through a suitable ring, which is then secured using professional smooth-jaw extension pliers. This product specifies 4mm Micro Rings for this fitting method.
Stick-Tips can also be fitted using suitable Shrinkies. With this method, controlled heat is applied using a Hair Extension Heat Connector to secure the Shrinkie around the extension and natural hair.
At approximately 0.5g per strand, these extensions provide a lightweight individual-strand option. The most appropriate fitting method, attachment size, strand quantity and placement will depend on the density and condition of the natural hair and the finished result required. Professional consultation and fitting are recommended.
These extensions are supplied in quantities of 25 strands. As a general guide, approximately 150–200 strands (6–8 bundles) may be used for a full-head application, while around 75–125 strands (3–5 bundles) may be used for a half-head application.
The exact quantity required depends on factors including your natural hair thickness, density, existing length and the amount of length or volume you want to achieve. We recommend discussing the required quantity with your hairstylist before ordering.
The attachments and tools required will depend on the fitting method being used. This product can be fitted using suitable 4mm Micro Rings with professional extension pliers, or compatible Shrinkies using controlled heat.

When fitting with Micro Rings, a suitable 4mm ring is positioned onto a small section of natural hair, the Stick-Tip extension is inserted and the ring is secured using professional extension pliers.
When fitting with Shrinkies, the extension and natural hair are positioned within the attachment before controlled heat is applied to secure it.
Correct section size, attachment selection and placement are important for a secure and comfortable fitting. View our Stick-Tip / I-Tip Hair Extension Fitting Guide for detailed application information.
Stick-Tip extensions should be removed carefully using the appropriate technique for the attachment method used. Micro Rings are opened using suitable removal pliers before the extension strand is gently released from the natural hair.
View our Stick-Tip / I-Tip Hair Extension Removal Guide for removal information.
With appropriate fitting and maintenance, these extensions can be worn for approximately 2–3 months. The human hair can be washed and styled, but correct care of both the extensions and attachment areas is important throughout wear.
Avoid applying oils, conditioners or heavy styling products directly around the attachment areas, as this may contribute to slippage. Keep direct heat away from Micro Rings, Shrinkies and other attachment points, and brush the extensions carefully while supporting the fitted areas.

#1B Off Black is a very dark, natural-looking shade that sits between true black and deep brunette. Subtle brown colouring may become more noticeable when the hair is viewed in natural daylight.
Compared with #1 Jet Black, #1B Off Black is slightly softer and less intense. #1 Jet Black is the better choice where the natural or coloured hair has a deep, solid true-black appearance.
Compared with #2 Dark Brown, #1B Off Black is darker and appears more black overall. #2 has a richer and more clearly defined dark-brunette appearance.
If your hair appears black indoors but shows subtle brunette tones in daylight, #1B Off Black may provide a closer match than #1 Jet Black.
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.
