Are Tape Extensions For Me?

One thing I think we will all agree on is we want good hair days everyday!

How we achieve that is very personal - a good hair mask, regular hair cuts and of course, for some of us, the use of hair extensions to enhance what we already have.

There are so many different methods to choose from and one of them is now the tape extension or tape weft as it is sometimes referred to. This method has taken the hair extension world by storm but for those not familiar with this method it is not always an obvious choice, when making your mind up about which hair extension type to go for.

If you are wondering how these extensions are applied let me explain. Your natural hair is placed between two tape wefts and the tape is sealed at the top with very strong tape that will not come away. 

So lets take a closer look at tapes and go through the pros and cons.

Pros:

• They are great for fine hair, with no need for heated tools or glue
• They don't take long at all to put in so those long sessions in the chair are a thing of the past
• They are very discreet with the tapes lying flat on the head
• You can barely feel them in your hair - my clients will often tell me how surprised they are at how light they feel
• You can create lots of volume with only a couple of packs of hair
• Hair is reusable
• Removal is quick with no damage to your own hair 

Cons:

• Regular maintenance is a must - tapes will need to be moved back up from anywhere between 6-10 weeks
• This method may not be suitable for those with very oily hair

Trying something new can be daunting but as a tape extension wearer myself and from the feedback I have had from clients this is definitely a method worth trying!
