Who Buys K-Tip Extensions
Extension brands and fusion specialists stock K-tips for clients who want the longest wear between appointments, and brands sell them in packs of 100 so stylists can order by the full head.
How K-Tips Are Applied
- 1Separate a small section of natural hair, about the same thickness as the extension strand
- 2Place the keratin tip under the section, close to the scalp
- 3Use a heat connector or ultrasonic tool to melt the keratin around the natural hair
- 4Roll the bond flat between the fingers as it cools
- 5Repeat in rows, keeping bonds away from the parting and hairline
Removal is with a bond remover and pliers. Most salons use new strands for each install, though a stylist can re-tip removed strands with fresh keratin.
Bond Colors
Keratin bonds are tinted to match blonde or dark hair, so the tip stays hidden at the root.
Aftercare Tips for Clients
- Keep oils, conditioner and silicone products away from the bonds
- Keep straighteners and curling irons about 2 cm from the bonds, because heat softens keratin
- Separate the bonds gently with your fingers after washing so they don't mat together
Washing, drying and how long an install lasts are covered in our guide to how long hair extensions last.

K-Tip Extensions FAQ
What's the difference between K-tip and U-tip?
Both are keratin bonds. K-tips are flat and slightly smaller. U-tips are curved and wrap around the natural hair.
Do you offer custom bond colors?
Yes. Keratin bonds can be tinted to match blonde or dark hair.
How many strands for a full head?
Usually 100 to 200 strands, depending on hair density and the volume desired.
Which tools do my stylists need?
A heat connector or an ultrasonic connector to melt the bond, bond remover and removal pliers to take it out, and a heat-shield disc to protect the scalp. All are in our Extension Tools range and can ship in the same carton.
How many K-tip packs make up the MOQ?
10 packs per color, with mixed lengths allowed. At 100 to 200 strands per head, that is about 5 to 10 full heads.
