I have thinning hair. Can I use U-Tip (Nail) Extensions?<\/p>\n
Yes, absolutely! They are great because they can be cut into smaller extension pieces and applied to a smaller area. This method is called micro bonding.<\/p>\n
If I cut the U-Tip (Nail) Extensions for micro bonds, how small can I go?<\/p>\n

Troubleshooting with U-Tip (Nail) Extensions<\/p>\n
Are you experiencing an issue with your hair? Here are some common scenarios and why they may be happening.<\/p>\n
Scenario 1: Tangling or scalp irritation<\/p>\n
Some possible causes include:<\/p>\n
– Bonds are too close to the head, causing the natural hair to be pulled.<\/p>\n
– The sections are not cleanly parted and straight, causing tension with the small hair strands.<\/p>\n
– Not shampooing the scalp and extensions well enough is creating build up.<\/p>\n
– Not brushing enough or not brushing between the rows of the Kera-Links to brush out the natural shedding could be causing tangling.<\/p>\n
– Sleeping with wet hair can cause the hair to get matted and tangled.<\/p>\n
Work with your stylist. Talk about your maintenance and aftercare habits and if there\u2019s anything you need to adjust in the way you take care of your hair.<\/p>\n
Also, remember that your U-Tip (Nail) Extensions are installed securely. You can wash and brush them, and don\u2019t be afraid to get in between the rows to remove any tangling.<\/p>\n

Scenario 2: Extensions are slipping<\/p>\n
Possible causes:<\/p>\n
– The Melting Connector heat may have been too low during installation.<\/p>\n
– The heat may not have been applied for long enough allowing the U-Tip (Nail) Extensions to be fully workable for the sealing process.<\/p>\n
– Bonds may not have been properly sealed all the way around the section of natural hair.<\/p>\n
– Too much or too little hair may have been used in the section of natural hair.<\/p>\n
– Applying heat directly to the attachment points may reheat the keratin bonds and cause premature slippage.<\/p>\n
– If you’re using conditioner on the roots instead of midshaft down, it can cause slippage.<\/p>\n
– If you’re using a product on the bonds that has a high alcohol content it may be causing the bonds to break down.<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”||||false|false” custom_padding=”5px||5px||true|false” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”||||false|false” custom_padding=”10px||10px||true|false” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/reddmoon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/w18-1-scaled.jpg” title_text=”w18″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content” sticky_enabled=”0″][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”||||false|false” custom_padding=”5px||5px||true|false” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_section]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
