Safety Information

To ensure safety and prevent damage to the product and your hair, keep the hair extensions away from naked flames or direct heat sources when not in use or during styling.

Setup and Installation

Smartinnov I-Tip extensions utilize a cold fusion method, which means no heat is required for application, minimizing potential damage to your natural hair and scalp. They are applied using micro beads, rings, or links.

Recommended Application Method:

1. Prepare Hair: Ensure your natural hair is clean, dry, and detangled before beginning the installation process.
2. Section Hair: Create clean, horizontal sections of your natural hair where the extensions will be applied.
3. Attach Micro Bead: Thread a micro bead (recommended size: 5mm x 3mm x 3mm) onto a small section of your natural hair using a looping tool.
4. Insert I-Tip: Insert the keratin-tipped end of the extension strand into the micro bead, ensuring it sits securely with your natural hair.
5. Secure Bead: Using a pair of pliers specifically designed for hair extensions, gently but firmly clamp the micro bead flat to secure the I-tip extension to your natural hair. Ensure the bead is flat and comfortable against the scalp.
6. Repeat: Continue this process section by section until the desired volume and length are achieved.

Silicone micro beads are recommended for their non-slip properties, firmer hold, and comfort, which also helps prevent damage to your natural hair.

Operating Instructions (Styling)

Your Smartinnov I-Tip extensions are made from 100% human hair, allowing for versatile styling options similar to your natural hair.

• Heat Styling: The extensions can be flat ironed straight or curled using heat styling tools. Always use a heat protectant spray to prevent damage.
• Coloring: While the hair can be colored, it is highly recommended to consult with a professional stylist for any chemical treatments to ensure optimal results and prevent damage.
• Perming: The extensions can be permed, but professional assistance is advised.

Maintenance

Proper maintenance is crucial for extending the life and maintaining the quality of your Smartinnov I-Tip extensions.

• Washing: Gently wash your hair and extensions with a sulfate-free shampoo and conditioner. Avoid scrubbing vigorously at the roots where the beads are attached. Rinse thoroughly.
• Drying: Pat hair gently with a towel to remove excess water. Air drying is recommended, or use a low heat setting on a blow dryer with a heat protectant.
• Brushing: Use a wide-tooth comb or a brush specifically designed for extensions. Start brushing from the ends and work your way up to the roots, holding the roots to prevent tension on the beads.
• Re-flattening Beads: After a week of wear, or due to daily activities like combing and sleeping, the micro beads may become loose. It is recommended to re-flatten the beads every 2-3 weeks to ensure a secure hold and extend the wear time of your extensions.
• Sleeping: Braid your hair loosely or tie it in a silk scarf or bonnet before sleeping to prevent tangling.
