Micro-Loop hair extensions are an individual strand extension method supplied with a pre-attached loop and micro ring. During fitting, a small section of the natural hair is passed through the loop, guided into the attached ring and secured by a professional stylist using extension pliers.
No fusion heat or adhesive is required during application. Our Micro-Loop range is made using 100% human Remy-graded hair and is available across selected lengths, strand weights and shades.
Micro-Loop extensions are individual strands with a small loop and micro ring already attached to the top of each extension. This differs from Stick-Tip extensions, where the fitter normally selects and adds a separate ring during application.
Because Micro-Loops are applied strand by strand, a professional stylist can control the placement and distribution of the extensions to suit the natural hair and desired finished result.
A small section of natural hair is placed through the pre-attached loop. The loop is then pulled so the natural hair passes through the micro ring attached to the extension strand.
Once correctly positioned, the ring is secured using professional hair extension pliers. The loop section used during application is then removed as part of the fitting process.
Our Micro-Loop range includes 0.5g and 1.0g strands across selected lengths and shades.
A 0.5g strand contains less hair per individual attachment, while a 1.0g strand provides more hair per strand. The preferred strand weight should be selected according to the natural hair, desired volume and the professional fitter's application plan.
Micro-Loop extensions are available in 14", 18", 20" and 22" lengths across selected ranges.
Shorter lengths can be useful for adding thickness, volume or subtle additional length, while longer extensions can create a more noticeable transformation. The starting length of the natural hair and the amount of blending required should also be considered.
Choosing a close colour match helps Micro-Loop extensions blend naturally with the client's own hair. Compare the available shades using our Hair Extension Colour Chart before ordering.
If you're unsure which shade to choose, use our Colour Match Guarantee for additional help before placing your order.
The amount of hair required will depend on the client's natural hair thickness, starting length and desired finished result. As a general guide, we recommend:
0.5g Micro-Loop Strands:
Half head — approximately 4 packs (100 strands)
Full head — approximately 8 packs (200 strands)
1.0g Micro-Loop Strands:
Half head — approximately 3 packs (75 strands)
Full head — approximately 6 packs (150 strands)
Each pack contains 25 individual strands. These quantities are recommendations only. The exact amount required can vary depending on the natural hair and desired volume and length, so we recommend confirming the quantity with the professional stylist carrying out the fitting.
Although the loop and ring are already attached to each strand, correct sectioning, positioning and ring tension are still important. We recommend that Micro-Loop extensions are fitted by a trained professional.
Appropriate Micro & Nano Ring Tools such as professional extension pliers may be required during fitting and maintenance.
Micro-Loop extensions should be professionally removed. The attached ring is carefully opened using suitable extension pliers so the extension and natural hair can be released without pulling or forcing the attachment.

Suitable aftercare helps maintain the appearance of the hair while also reducing unnecessary stress around the attachment areas. Brush gently from the ends upwards while supporting the roots, taking particular care around the micro rings.
Wash fitted extensions upright using suitable extension aftercare products. Keep oils, conditioners and heavy creams away from the rings and attachment areas, and ensure the hair, roots and rings are completely dry before sleeping.
Avoid concentrated heat directly on the attachment areas. We also do not recommend colouring, bleaching or toning our hair extensions, or using silver, purple, blue or other colour-depositing shampoos.
With suitable care, our human hair extensions typically have a usable lifespan of around 2–3 months, although this can vary according to fitting, maintenance, styling, aftercare and individual use. Read our complete Hair Extension Aftercare Guide for further care advice.

Micro-Loop extensions are individual strands supplied with a small application loop and micro ring already attached. The loop helps guide a section of natural hair through the ring before the ring is positioned and secured using professional extension pliers.
No fusion heat or adhesive is required for the Micro-Loop attachment method. The extension is secured using its attached micro ring.
Yes. Each Micro-Loop strand has a loop and micro ring already attached, which is one of the main differences between Micro-Loop and Stick-Tip extensions.
We recommend professional fitting. Correct sectioning, placement and ring tension are important, and a trained stylist can assess whether the method is suitable for the client's natural hair.
As a general guide, for 0.5g strands we suggest around 100 strands (4 packs) for a half head and 200 strands (8 packs) for a full head. For 1.0g strands, we suggest around 75 strands (3 packs) for a half head and 150 strands (6 packs) for a full head. The exact amount required will vary according to the natural hair and desired finished result.
The application loop and micro ring are already attached to each extension strand, but professional extension pliers are still used to correctly secure the ring. Browse our Micro & Nano Ring Tools for suitable professional accessories.
During professional removal, the micro ring is carefully opened using suitable extension pliers so the extension strand can be released from the natural hair. The extensions should never be pulled or forced out.
The usable life of the hair varies according to fitting, maintenance, styling and aftercare. With suitable care, HairXtensions human hair extensions typically have a usable lifespan of around 2–3 months. The appropriate maintenance and removal timing for the fitted extensions should be discussed with the professional stylist.
We do not recommend colouring, bleaching or toning our hair extensions. We also recommend avoiding silver, purple, blue and other colour-depositing shampoos. Choosing the closest suitable shade before ordering is the safest option.
No. Fitted extensions should not be slept in while wet or damp. Make sure the hair, roots and micro-ring attachment areas are completely dry before bed, and secure the lengths in a loose plait or low ponytail where appropriate.
