Hair extensions have come a veryyy long way from the synthetic, clip-on ponytails I once wore in middle school (it was a dark time). These days, if you’re looking to add some subtle thickness to your hair or if you want to experiment with a longer length for a while, you have a variety of quality options to choose from. There are clip-in extensions, sew-ins, and tape-ins, though few are as versatile as K-tip hair extensions.
If you’ve been paying any attention to hair trends that have gone viral within the last several years, then you’ve likely heard mention of K-tips at least once or twice. “These are individual keratin bond extensions that are fused to the natural hair using a heat tool,” says New Jersey-based hairstylist and salon owner Jennifer Korab. “They’re great for anyone looking for a seamless, natural-looking blend and full movement.”
