Ultra Tip vs Pro Tip Hair Extensions
It might be the unusual shape that you notice first, but there is so much more to know about our Ultra Tips and their baby sister, Pro Tips. These Pre-Bonded hair extensions have become firm favourites among stylists and clients alike and for good reason. Here's everything you need to know.
When asked to describe Ultra Tips, at Remi Cachet we always say: "Ultra Flat. Ultra Light. Ultra Coverage."
Their unique design features a thin, flexible bond that sits comfortably and discreetly in the hair, offering seamless integration and exceptional wearability.
Ultra Tips were the original innovation and remain a number one choice for professionals seeking the ultimate in pre-bonded extensions. Recognised globally by leading salons and extensionist's, Ultra Tips have earned a reputation for delivering long-lasting, natural-looking results with minimal bulk and maximum coverage. Their ultra-flat profile allows for a smooth, undetectable finish, making them ideal for building volume, adding length, or both.
Following their success, Pro Tips were introduced, the same trusted design, just smaller. While Pro Tips are perfect for finer hair types or delicate areas such as the hairline, Ultra Tips continue to be the go-to method for full-head transformations and high-impact results.
Professionals around the world trust Ultra Tips not only for their performance, but for their reliability, versatility, and client satisfaction. Whether working on editorial shoots, bridal styling, or everyday salon services, Ultra Tips deliver the standard of excellence today’s stylists demand.
Extension Tips: A Quick Comparison
Both Ultra Tips and Pro Tips are crafted using our most popular Elegance hair, renowned for lasting a minimum of 12 months with the correct aftercare. This premium quality also grants access to our full Elegance colour range, offering over 55 expertly developed shades, including a selection of beautifully blended mixed shades, where each side of the tip displays a different tone for multidimensional, natural results.
When it comes to length and volume, Ultra Tips offer the widest range of options with 12", 16", 20" and 24" lengths available, while Pro Tips are currently offered in the two most popular sizes, 16" and 20".
What truly sets Ultra Tips apart is their ultra-flat, fanned design, which distributes the hair evenly at the root for an impeccably smooth, discreet finish. This innovative construction ensures seamless blending and superior comfort. It also allows for greater customisation, giving professionals the flexibility to create bespoke results tailored to each individual client, from enhancing natural volume to full transformations.
While Pro Tips are the perfect choice for detailed work, Ultra Tips remain the professional's choice for high-impact results, versatility, and full-head applications where flawless blending is essential.
Remi Cachet’s Number One Pre-Bonded Method
At the core of Ultra Tips’ success is their industry-leading polyurethane bond, designed to lay completely flat against the client's head for maximum comfort and discretion. This unique fanned shape ensures even hair distribution, reducing bulk at the root and delivering a flawless, natural finish.
Not only is the bond completely reusable, eliminating the need for re-tipping during maintenance, it also withstands heat and product exposure, ensuring long-term durability and peace of mind for both stylist and client.
To support the flat design, Ultra Tips require a custom-fit Ultra Lock, an oval-shaped locking system developed to secure the bond effectively without causing damage. Ultra Locks are compatible with both Ultra Tips and Pro Tips, offering flexibility across applications.
Stylists choose Ultra Tips for their customisation potential, seamless integration, and proven reliability, while clients benefit from comfortable, discreet, and long-lasting transformations tailored to their exact needs.
Unique Properties Of Ultra Tips
Ultra Tips are expertly engineered with a flat, lightweight, and seamless design that ensures maximum comfort and a flawless finish. The fanned hair formation allows for even distribution, reducing bulk at the root and creating a completely natural look.
Overall, Ultra Tips feature multi-tonal blends with different shades on each side of the bond, offering dimension and depth that mimic natural hair tones effortlessly.
From their innovative structure to their professional-grade performance, Ultra Tips combine customisation, longevity, and aesthetic excellence, making them the most advanced pre-bonded extension method on the market.
Seasonal Colour Placement
As client colour trends shift with the seasons, both Ultra Tips and Pro Tips provide the ideal solution for achieving seamless autumn-inspired transitions. Whether enhancing warmth with soft coppers, golden blondes, or rich brunettes, these pre-bonded extensions allow for precise colour placement to complement and elevate the client’s natural or coloured base.
With the extensive colour range, stylists can create subtle lowlights, bold face-framing pieces, or layered dimension, perfect for replicating the richness and depth of autumn tones.
This level of versatility and precision makes these hair extension types a go-to choice for seasonal colour changes, giving clients the ability to refresh their look without committing to permanent chemical colour. Whether you're enhancing warmth or softening summer highlights, Ultra Tips and Pro Tips can support a tailored, high-impact result.
Removing Ultra Tips And Pro Tips
