Just like a makeup artist relies on quality brushes for a smooth finish, hair stylists — and even DIY users — depend on hair extension tools to get consistent and safe results. These tools are especially designed to allow you to have full control as you apply, adjust, and remove extensions without causing damage to the natural hair.
But exactly which ones should you buy? In this article, we list 3 of the must-have hair extension tools for professionals.
Nano ring opener plier tool
Use the nano ring opener plier tool when working with nano or micro ring extensions. It's built with three grooves to open rings cleanly and comes with a soft-grip handle that reduces strain during long appointments. The 5-inch size gives you better control in tight areas.
Wooden pulling needle tool.
You can use this wooden pulling needle tool to pull the client's natural hair through the beads when installing micro rings. The hooked end makes threading faster, while the wooden handle gives you a solid grip. This is especially useful when working quickly across multiple rows.
You'll notice fewer snags and cleaner sections. It's light in the hand and strong enough to hold up over time, even with regular use.
