Taking Care of Tape-In Hair Extensions: Practical Tips

Tape-In Hair Extensions are an exceptional way to add length, volume, and highlights to your natural hair. As chic and convenient as they are, it’s imperative to know how to care for them properly, to make the most of your new locks. This guide delivers practical tips on the application, washing, styling, and even nighttime care of Tape-In Hair Extensions.

How to Apply Your Tape-In Extensions

Attach the bottom extension under the thin section of hair by lifting it slightly. Peel off the adhesive strip and press the bottom extension beneath the lifted strand.

Secure the top extension by removing the tape cover and pressing it onto the strand. Use pliers to press both extensions together for a few seconds to ensure a secure bond.

If the tape-in hair extensions don't stick, you may have used too much hair in your strand. Brush off excess hair gently from the bottom extension.

Repeat the process along your side part, adding extensions until you cover the desired area. The number of extensions depends on your head size, typically using about 5 rows or more for the desired volume.Fullshine Tape-in Hair Extensions

Washing Tips for Tape-In Extensions

Once your extensions are secure, it's important to learn how to properly cleanse them. Avoid washing your hair for 48 hours after the installation to allow the adhesive to cure properly. Before shampooing, brush your hair to prevent matting, using the recommended Wet Brush. When it comes to shampooing, opt for a sulfate-free shampoo, focusing on cleaning your scalp more than the extensions themselves.

Blow Dry & Curling Tips for Tape-In Extensions

After washing, you can go ahead and dry your hair. Maximize air drying, employing a hair towel wrap for moisture absorption post-wash. Avoid using a high heat setting as it can melt the adhesive on your extensions, Keep the temperature below 160℃. Use a soft bristle brush to gently detangle your extensions while blow-drying them. Enhance protection by applying heat protectant and leave-in conditioner to both your natural hair and extensions. If you desire curls, use a lower heat setting on your curling iron and always use a heat protecting spray.

Tips on How to Sleep With Tape-In Hair Extensions

Invest in Silk Pillowcases:

Upgrade your sleep experience by opting for silk pillowcases. Their smooth texture reduces friction, preventing tangling and breakage, ensuring your hair extensions stay intact.

Choose the Right Detangling Brush:

Select a high-quality detangling brush to gently manage your hair extensions before bedtime. This minimizes knots and tangles, making your morning routine smoother.

Low Ponytail:

Keep your hair extensions secure by tying them into a low-positioned ponytail. This reduces movement during sleep, minimizing the risk of tangles and damage.

Sleeping Bonnet:

Utilize a sleeping bonnet to provide an extra layer of protection for your hair extensions. This helps to maintain their sleekness and minimizes friction with bedding.

Silk Scarf:

For added care, tie your hair extensions with a silk scarf. This gentle method ensures your extensions stay in place while you enjoy a comfortable night's sleep.

Caring for your Tape-In Hair Extensions and implementing these practices into your hair care routine ensures prolonged wear, maintains its quality, and achieves the best look possible. With the right care, your tape-in extensions can be a beautiful addition to your daily look and a fantastic booster to your confidence. Always remember: the better care you take of your extensions, the longer they will last.
