INSTALL METHODS AND KITS
MONDAY: I-Tip & K-Tip Methods
The I-Tip Method, also known as the Strand By Strand Micro Link Method, uses small sections of hair held together by keratin, shaped like a shoestring. These tiny extensions are added to the client's hair using a threading method. This involves looping the hair into a threader tool and pulling it through a small cylinder bead. The I-Tip extension is then positioned inside the bead along with the client's hair and secured with pliers.
The I-Tip 1 on 1 Training Course includes a Full Kit. This kit contains all the I-Tip Tools necessary for the class, your model, and future clients.
The kit includes 200 grams (pieces) of 18” I-Tip Hair for use on the model. Any hair that is not used is yours to keep!
The K-Tip method, also known as Keratin Bond Extensions or Fusions, uses small sections of hair, bonded together in a flat shape using keratin glue. This leads to the term "Flat Tip Hair," , due to the flat shape of the hair pieces. The Flat Tip hair is attached to the client's hair using low heat, which softens the keratin glue. Once softened, the extension is shaped into a thin, shoestring-like form and bonded to the clients hair. Unlike its counterpart, I-Tips, K-Tips do not use beads. They are small, unnoticeable, and extremely flexible, making them virtually invisible when installed.
The K-Tip 1 on 1 Training Course includes a Full Kit. This kit contains all the K-Tip Tools necessary for the class, your model, and future clients.
The kit includes 200 grams (pieces) of 18” K-Tip Hair for use on the model. Any hair that is not used is yours to keep!
The Micro Link Method, also known as the Invisible Bead Technique, uses only a weft, a bead, and the client's hair. Unlike a braid-less sew-in, there is no thread used to attach the weft to the client's hair. True to its name, the bead in a Micro Link install is hidden from the naked eye, creating the illusion of not wearing extensions. This method offers a more natural, flat, seamless appearance for clients wearing extensions.
The Micro Link 1 on 1 Training Course includes a Full Kit. This kit contains all the Micro Link Tools necessary for the class, your model, and future clients.
The kit includes 200 grams (2 bundles) of 18” Weft Hair for use on the model. Any hair that is not used is yours to keep!
The goal of FTG's 1 on 1 training is to provide you with hands-on experience in installing the technique on a live model. While practicing the skill on a mannequin is useful, it does not fully capture the essence of the technique. The hands-on portion of the training is the key to truly mastering the technique!
We will conduct hands-on training on both Monday and Tuesday between 1pm and 6pm.
Since we are discussing two methods on Monday, your first model will undergo a "Hybrid Install".
A Hybrid Install is an install that alternates between both install types on different rows.You'll apply the first install type to one row, and the second install type, to the next row.
This alternating pattern continues around the head, allowing you to experience both types of installs on all sections of the head.
When selecting your model for Monday, please inform them that they will have two different types of installs.
Install Type Schedule:
Monday: I-Tips/ K-Tips
Tuesday: Micro Links
By the end of this two-day course, you will have accomplished full installations using all three techniques on a live model.
Density affects How long it takes and how much hair we Use. How Long it Takes: We have 5 hours to complete an entire install. The more hair they have the longer it takes.
How Much Hair We Use: Your Kit comes with 200 grams that is more than enough to finish a dow density client.
Length affects Placement and the Seamless Look Placement: We need enough length to b able to create some versatility. If the hair is too short we can't.
Seamless Look: Your Kit comes with 18" Hair, your clients hair can't be too long or short to create the look.
Color affects The Blend and The Finish Look. The Blend: The Extensions in your Kit are a 1B so your client needs to be 1B as well.
The Finish Look: This is will be your first model to show potential clients. If the color doesn't match it won't work.
