You can do both ways. I prefer to separate out hair for one plug and then fold it in half to be inserted with a Rehairing tool. I use a needle with the eye snipped off at an angle, held in an xacto knife handle. I use a size 8 or 9 needle. Before inserting the hair I widen the hair plug hole a little using an awl.

I usually cut the hair into 3 parts, everything else is too long for me. Except I want a pony with pretty long hair :)
