a. Copper Rings
The Copper rings (Shells or Tubes) are for the Cylinder Extension application. Our rings do not have the flare at the bottom, are coated with a matte finish both inside and outside the tube and are made with a soft copper metal that does not corrode.
The copper rings are to be installed by pressing them flat with our Soft Tip Pliers or the Cylinder Pliers. Remove the copper shells with either the Removal Pliers or the Cylinder Pliers.
(Tip: Avoid slippage by filling the tubes both with the extension tip and the client's hair before closing. Do not leave any gaps.)
When selecting colors it is preferable that you match your client's root color or the darkest base color. Size and color chart available to our registered customers.
Available sizes:
Large (2.75mm x 6mm): Fits large tip Cylinder hair extensions
Intermediate (2.5mm x 6mm): For a looser fit on small tip Cylinder hair extensions
Small (1.8mmx5mm): Fits small tip Cylinder hair extensions
b. Cylinder Pliers
The Cylinder Pliers are for the Cylinder Extension attachment. Use them for both closing and opening the rings/tubes. The pliers are 5.5” long, 1” jaw, lightweight with a single leaf spring. Use the flat tips for closing the copper rings until flat. Use the two-sided grooves for opening the rings by placing the flattened copper ring vertically into the grooves, press gently down until the ring begins to open and revert to a rounded shape. The Cylinder pliers work on all sizes of rings and tubes.
c. Soft Tip Pliers
The Soft Tip Pliers are for the Cylinder Extension attachment. Use them for closing the rings/tubes only. These pliers are 5.5” long with a ¼” wide flat tip jaw made of polished stainless steel with PVC grips. The Soft Tip pliers have non-metal tips that will not scratch the paint finish of the copper rings/tubes.
d. Remover Pliers
The Remover Pliers are for the Cylinder Extension attachment. Use them for opening the rings/tubes only. These pliers are 5” long with 3mm groove tip jaws, a fine narrow tip for precision handling and non-slip grips. Unlike many groove tip pliers these do not have cutters and the outer or first groove is the perfect size for opening all ring sizes.
e. Drawing Cards
Drawing cards are the perfect tool for managing your bulk hair and pre-tipped hair extensions. Drawing cards have been used by wigmakers for decades as a tool to hold the bundles of loose hair. It firmly holds the loose hair, keeps the roots aligned and prevents the hairs from tangling. Made of fibrous leather - 7" x 6"
For pre-tipped hair extensions you can place your bundles of hair inside the drawing cards - with different colors together - easily and quickly pull out one strand at a time while making your attachments.
