(1)Remove old microbeads:
Apply conditioner or oil to old microbeads to help loosen the loops.
Use pliers or a microbead removal tool to gently open each microbead and carefully slide the extension out, avoiding pulling on the hair.
(2)Prepare the extensions:
Wash the extensions with a sulfate-free shampoo and conditioner to thoroughly remove any residue.
Gently comb through the ends with a wide-tooth comb, trimming split ends or damaged ends to ensure the extensions are in good condition.
(3)Install new microbeads:
Section the extensions and pass a small section of hair through the new microbead.
Use pliers or a microbead tool to clamp the microbeads to ensure the extensions are firmly fixed, repeat until all extensions are installed with new microbeads.
(4) Reinstall the extensions:
Section your natural hair and pass a small section of hair through the microbeads of the extension and clamp with pliers to secure.
Start at the neck and work your way up until all extensions are reinstalled, finishing with blending and styling the extensions with your natural hair.
