Copper hair extension locks

[charlene1983]

I've been using the 3mm copper tubes for fitting tiny tip extensions, sometimes I find the mini tip is the same size as the copper tube so by the time the hair is threaded through its almost impossible to fit.

But the next size up with the little rim are designed for regular stick tip extensions.

I find I'm having to take smaller sections of hair which isn't really practical.

I've attached the pictures to show what I mean. What does everyone else use to fit the tiny tip extensions. And where do you buy them from?

That's why I always have two sizes of the tubes 3mm and 4mm. I apply smaller rings at the top of the head.

Hi iv been doing extensions for just over a year now and iv started using the mini locks but I'm finding my clients are getting a lot of slippage .. is this down to the size of the sections I'm taking ? and what is the standard amount for people to lose ?

I found the pliers I was using was the reason for the slippage, my clients now lost up to 6 strands before maintenance. Are u using stainless Steel pliers?

I find nipping the bottom of the bead horizontal at the bottom helps them hold.
