If you’re looking for a way to add length and volume to your hair without glue or heavy wefts, micro link hair extensions could be a great option. This method gives a natural look and allows your hair to move freely. At Hair Weaves and Extensions MD, we offer microlinks and other extension types to help you get the style you want while keeping your natural hair healthy.
Microlink extensions—also called microbead or I-tip extensions—use small, silicone-lined beads to attach extension strands to your natural hair. Your stylist will pull a small section of your hair through a bead, insert the extension, and clamp the bead shut to hold it in place. There’s no glue, no sewing, and no braids involved. The result is a lightweight, flexible style that blends in well with your own hair.
When choosing between microlinks and sew-in extensions, it helps to understand how each method works and what kind of maintenance is needed.
Microlinks are ideal for those with healthy, medium to thick hair. They allow for a lot of movement and flexibility—you can wear your hair up or down without revealing the extensions. However, they do require regular upkeep to make sure the beads don’t slip or tangle.
Sew-in extensions involve braiding your natural hair and sewing hair wefts into the braids. This is a great option if you want a protective style or if your hair is thick and strong. Sew-ins are more stable and usually need less frequent adjustments than microlinks, but they may feel heavier and offer less flexibility in styling.
Not sure which is right for you? The team at Hair Weaves and Extensions MD can help you decide based on your hair type, lifestyle, and how long you want the style to last.
Microlinks can last for weeks with proper care. Here are a few basic tips to keep them looking their best:
Use a loop brush or a wide-tooth comb to avoid tugging at the beads.
Wash your hair gently with sulfate-free shampoo. Focus on your scalp and let the shampoo rinse through the ends.
Avoid applying heavy oils or conditioners at the roots to prevent bead slippage.
Dry your hair completely after washing to avoid buildup and mildew near the beads.
Visit your stylist every few weeks to check for loose beads and detangle any matting.
Whether you're interested in microlinks, sew-ins, clip-ins, fusion extensions, or custom wigs, we have a solution that works for you. We use 100% human hair and take care to make sure your extensions look natural and feel comfortable.
