for Inserting
UnCut Rooting Needles
into our Hollow Handled Hair Rooting
Tool
Dis-assemble Hair Rooting
Tool to get the small screw on metal cap… and the longer
metal collette that holds the needle for
insertion.
Take the needle and feed it
carefully through the very center of the empty
collette.. feed it in on the side with the opening, not
the one with the more closed ‘x’ side
If you feed needle directly
through the center of the collette it will go in easily
and stop itself actually with about ¾ inch or 2 cm of
the needle’s barbed tip showing thru the other side and
about the same equal amount on the base side (using our
3 inch rooting needles we sell at Bloomers*n*Bows)… do
not insert any further, if the collette is centered on
the length of the needle then the rest will work out
fine… this way you’ll have about ¾ of an inch of tip on
the more closed side of collette … this is the part of
the needle you will root the baby’s hair with and ¾ inch
of the base of the needle with the L shape coming out
the other end of the collette…
Now you take the collette
with the needle in it and tip sticking out the top and
insert the L shaped bottom of needle and all into the
empty base of the holder… you have to push a little but
it does go in and will actually ‘click’ into place once
it’s fully inserted… it takes a little pressure to push
it in but it will go… I have tried this myself several
times and it does go in and the only problems many
people have are because they feed all the needle into
the tool and leave too much sticking out of the top… it
spreads the metal collette and makes it too fat to go
into the holder base…
Remember if the needle
is passed right thru the very center of the collette, it
goes in really easy with no resistance and then it even
stops itself once the tip is about ¾ of an inch out…
this way the length of the needle is centered on the
collette and there is about ¾ of an inch of
tail sticking out when you go to put it in the holder..
the base of the needle is not flush against the bottom
of the collette.. this will now work this way… it is
finicky like that…Once it clicks into the base, the
metal tip is easy to place on the top and does screw on
to tighten the needle tip further into place.
By the way, either collette
that comes with the tool will work with the needles..
one is wider on the inside than the other so when you
put the needle thru the center of the wider one you’ll
have to remember to allow about ¾ of an inch of tip to
stick out and then keep it like that and place in the
holder… firm even pressure will work it into the holder
base… once I put it in a couple of times I knew how to
work with it and swapping out the needles was not very
time consuming or difficult to do.
