Tape extensions are a widely popular hair extension method known for being gentle on the hair. They're lightweight, easy to apply, and practically invisible, so no one will notice you're wearing them. Available in a variety of colours and lengths, they can also be trimmed to suit your desired style. These semi-permanent extensions are attached to the hair using tape and provide extra length and volume, giving you everyday confidence with ease.

We offer 4 different lengths: 13", 17", 21" and 25"

Tape hair extensions typically need to be refitted every 6 to 8 weeks, depending on how fast your natural hair grows and how well you care for them. As your hair grows, the extensions will move away from the roots, so regular maintenance ensures they stay secure and blend seamlessly with your natural hair.

Yes, you can swim with tape hair extensions, but it's important to take precautions to protect them. Chlorine, saltwater, and prolonged exposure to water can weaken the adhesive and cause the extensions to slip. To minimise damage:

• Wear a swim cap or tie your hair in a braid or bun to reduce exposure.
• Rinse your hair with fresh water before and after swimming to prevent chlorine or salt from soaking in.
• Use a leave-in conditioner or protective serum to create a barrier.
• Avoid vigorous rubbing or towel drying to prevent tangling.

Following these steps can help maintain the longevity of your extensions.

You should wash your tape hair extensions every 1 to 2 times per week, depending on your lifestyle and how quickly your hair gets oily or dirty. Over-washing can weaken the adhesive and cause the extensions to slip or become damaged.

When washing, follow these tips:

• Use sulfate-free, gentle shampoos and conditioners.
• Avoid applying conditioner directly to the tape bonds.
• Gently detangle your hair with a wide-tooth comb before washing.
• Pat the hair dry rather than rubbing it to prevent tangling.

Proper care will help extend the life of your extensions.

Washing and drying your tape hair extensions requires extra care to maintain their longevity and prevent damage. Here's how to do it properly:

How to Wash Tape Hair Extensions:

1. Detangle First: Gently comb through your hair with a wide-tooth comb or extension brush to remove any knots before washing.
2. Use Gentle, Sulfate-Free Shampoo: Apply shampoo to your scalp and the upper part of your natural hair. Avoid scrubbing the tape bonds directly to prevent loosening the adhesive.
3. Rinse Gently: Let the water flow from roots to ends without harsh rubbing. Make sure to rinse thoroughly.
4. Condition from Mid-Length to Ends: Apply conditioner only to the mid-lengths and ends, avoiding the tape bonds to prevent them from weakening.
5. Rinse Again: Ensure all product is rinsed out thoroughly to avoid build-up.

How to Dry Tape Hair Extensions:

1. Blot, Don’t Rub: After washing, gently blot your hair with a microfiber towel or soft cloth to remove excess water. Avoid vigorous towel drying to prevent tangling.
2. Let Air Dry When Possible: Allow your extensions to air dry naturally to reduce heat exposure.
3. Use Low Heat If Blow-Drying: If you need to blow-dry, use a cool or low heat setting, starting from the roots and working down to the ends. Be cautious near the tape bonds to avoid weakening the adhesive.
4. Avoid Heat Tools on the Bonds: Keep curling irons, straighteners, or other heat tools away from the tape bonds to maintain their hold.

Following these steps will help keep your extensions looking great and last longer.

To maintain your tape hair extensions during exercise:

1. Tie your hair up in a loose ponytail, bun, or braid to prevent tangling.
2. Wear a sweatband to absorb sweat and protect the tape bonds.
3. Rinse your hair after workouts to remove sweat buildup.
4. Use dry shampoo if you can't wash your hair immediately.
5. Air dry or gently pat your hair dry after exercising, avoiding heat tools on damp hair.

These tips will help keep your extensions secure and in good condition during workouts.

Tape hair extensions are generally considered gentle and, when applied and maintained correctly, should not cause damage to your natural hair. However, improper care or poor application can lead to potential issues. Here are some factors to consider:

When Tape Extensions May Cause Damage:

1. Incorrect Application or Removal: If the extensions are applied too close to the roots or removed improperly, they can cause stress on the hair and lead to breakage.
2. Heavy Extensions: If the extensions are too heavy for your natural hair, they can cause strain and damage.
3. Neglecting Maintenance: Not refitting the extensions every 6 to 8 weeks as your hair grows can cause matting or tangling at the roots, leading to damage.
4. Poor Aftercare: Failing to follow proper care routines, such as detangling, washing gently, and avoiding excessive heat on the bonds, can weaken your natural hair over time.

With professional application, regular maintenance, and proper care, tape extensions are a safe and non-damaging way to enhance your hair.

Removing tape hair extensions requires care to avoid damaging your natural hair. Here's the step-by-step process:

1. Apply a Tape Extension Remover

• A specially formulated adhesive remover, usually oil or alcohol-based, is applied directly to the tape bonds. This breaks down the adhesive, making it easier to slide the extensions off.

2. Gently Separate the Extensions

• Once the remover has softened the adhesive, the stylist will gently peel the tape extensions away from your natural hair. This step should be done carefully to avoid pulling or damaging the hair.

3. Comb Out Residue

• After removing the extensions, any leftover adhesive or residue is combed out from your natural hair. Additional remover may be used if needed to ensure all the adhesive is gone.

4. Wash and Condition Your Hair

• Once all the extensions are removed, your natural hair will be washed and conditioned to restore moisture and remove any remaining residue.

It’s recommended to have a professional remove your tape extensions to ensure the process is done safely without damaging your natural hair.
