TAPE INS ARE A GREAT OPTION FOR THOSE WITH FINER HAIR BECAUSE THEY LAY EXTREMELY FLAT TO THE HEAD. WITH THE TAPE IN METHOD, YOUR HAIR IS FACING IN A DOWNWARD NATURAL DIRECTION, MEANING IT WILL LAY FLAT AND GROW DOWNWARD. BECAUSE THE TIGHTENING PROCESS IS MORE LABOR INTENSIVE THAN THE INSTALL, MAINTENANCE APPOINTMENTS MAY TAKE LONGER THAN THE FIRST INSTALL APPOINTMENT. TAPE INS ARE MORE DELICATE THAN OTHER METHODS BECAUSE OF THE GLUE. DO NOT APPLY DIRECT HEAT TO GLUED AREAS WHEN STYLING. THIS METHOD WORKS BEST WITH FINE TO MEDIUM HAIR.
TAPE IN MAINTENANCE
8-12 WEEKS
THE PROCESS OF TIGHTENING TAPE IN EXTENSIONS IS ACTUALLY MORE INVOLVED THAN THE INSTALLATION PROCESS.
IF YOU PLAN ON KEEPING YOUR EXTENSIONS LONG TERM, MAKE SURE YOU GET THEM TIGHTENED EVERY 8-12 WEEKS. ON AVERAGE, HUMANS LOSE 50-150 STRANDS OF HAIR PER DAY. TIGHTENINGS ARE ESPECIALLY IMPORTANT BECAUSE HAIR THAT HAS ALREADY NATURALLY SHED WILL BE STUCK IN THE TAPE GLUE UNTIL I HAVE A CHANCE TO BRUSH THEM OUT. THE LONGER ONE WAITS, MORE HAIR WILL BE STUCK IN THE TAPE. WAITING LONG PERIODS OF TIME IN BETWEEN TIGHTENING CAN CAUSE TANGLING, MATTING, AND STRESS TO THE NATURAL HAIR. EVEN IF THEY FEEL FINE, IT'S WISE TO BOOK AN APPOINTMENT SO WE CAN MAKE SURE THERE IS NO TANGLING OR OTHER PROBLEMS THAT YOU MAY NOT BE ABLE TO SEE ON YOUR OWN.

CONS
- HAVE A TENDENCY TO SLIP DUE TO THE GLUE
