Hair Extension Tools FAQ
Which pliers do I need for I-tips and nano rings?
I-tips need closing pliers to flatten the micro ring and opening pliers to release it at the move-up. Nano rings are smaller, so they use fine flat pliers. Tape-ins only need flat pliers to press the tabs. Each kit in the table above has the right set.
Can you match ring colors to my extension shades?
Yes. Micro and nano rings come in shades matched to our extension color range.
