What Are KTips Hair Extensions?
Ktips, also known as keratin bond extensions, are individual strands of hair that are attached to your natural hair using a keratin-based bond. Since keratin is a protein your hair already contains, the bond blends in naturally and feels lightweight when applied correctly. Each extension is added strand by strand, which allows for extra movement and flexibility when styling. Because they’re customized to match your hair’s color and density, ktips hair extensions are a great option for a long-lasting upgrade to your locks.

Now, before applying or removing those ktips, you’ll need to stock up on all of the essential tools and accessories. This includes the ktips hair bonds, removers for keratin tips, and a pair of extension pliers. We’re highlighting the best Big Kizzy tools for applying and removing ktips hair extensions.
