Many of us do our hair ourselves. For a detailed discussion of schrinkies and extentubes see "bridget your question is here" But in general extentubes/mocrorings are small rings of metal (~1/8 " long and 1/8" in diameter) that you pull a section of your hair through and then push the extension hair into. Then you clamp them closed. Shrinkies are 1/8" diameter and somewhat longer depends on the brand. You push and pull similarly and then use a heat wand to shrink them down tight. |
