What Are K-Tip Hair Extensions?

A semi-permanent hair extension that uses a keratin-based bond to attach individual strands of extension hair to small sections of your natural hair.

  • Each K-Tip extension is installed by a keratin tip, which has been custom cut to match your hair density, around a small section of your hair. This creates a secure install that doesn’t require any glue, tape, or sewing. The process is done with precision and care, ensuring even distribution and a seamless blend with your natural hair.

  • K-Tips are the most lightweight, discreet, and versatile extension methods available. Unlike tape-ins or wefts, K-Tips are installed in small sections throughout the hair, allowing for maximum movement and styling flexibility. This also allows us to put hair in areas other methods can not go; the nape of the neck, the crown area, and even fill in bangs. They don’t require tightening or salon maintenance between installs, making them a great low-maintenance option.

  • Yes—when installed and removed by a certified professional, K-Tips are safe and gentle on your natural hair. They don’t require glue or chemicals, and the keratin used expands and breathes with our natural hair. Proper aftercare is key to maintaining the health of your hair during wear.

  • • Fullness & Volume: Boost body and thickness

    • Length: Add instant inches

    • Balanced Shape: Even out uneven layers or simply fill in areas where your natural hair is thinner

  • These are considered a “no-maintenance ” extension. There are no salon move-ups needed between install and removal. You’ll just need to:

    • Brush gently from roots to ends daily

    • Avoid oil-based products near the root

    • Sleep with your hair loosely tied or braided

    • Use sulfate-free, extension-safe products

  • K-Tips typically last 3 to 6 months, depending on your hair type, lifestyle, and how well you care for them.

  • K-Tips are removed using a tool that breaks down the keratin tip without pulling or damaging your natural hair. Once the tip is softened, the extension strand easily slides out. The removal process is pain-free and should always be done by a trained stylist to protect the health of your hair.
