You need the shoelace/stick hair.

The medium size microring (2mm) will provide a good, tight fit.

You will need the small threader for the medium microrings.  I made my own threader based on an illustration provided by another forum user (I used a very flexable beading wire instead of the tiger tail wire)...

In reference to not having a hair pulling hook that will fit through the tiny tubes, here is what I use (excuse the wretched ms paint example, ). An idea I got from someone here a time ago, and it's so darn easy. Just take a shrinkie or three (I actually use 3 inch industrial shrink tubing because it makes a better handle) and shrink it around a loop of plastic coated flexi wire. Tiger-Tail, the wire used commonly in beading, is perfect. If you make the loop longer than necessary you can load up half a dozen tubes at once for convenience, if you like. The wire stays flat enough to fit though anything your hair will. Easy easy.
