Look Fabulous With Tape In Extensions

By Maria Turner


Sometimes it can be difficult to choose the right hairstyle or color. No matter how many beauty products come on the market or a person puts in the effort, there are times when a particular style will not happen. Many people would rather try something simple, like tape in extensions, which are easy to apply and care for.

While there have been many ways to add hair over the past few decades, this method brings together the best of both worlds. The old method consisted of braiding hair to the scalp and sewing before adding the hair. This took a long time, could be painful and was expensive. This new way allows the average wearer to enjoy their new hair in a matter of minutes.

There are numerous styles that allow the wearer to go from curly to straight, or vice versa without the use of chemicals. Anyone who has had their hair colored knows there are not only risks but even a professional may find it hard to get it right. Those who have dense hair types can try the new pastel colors without having to endure bleaching or sitting under a dryer for a long time.

Hair extension tape is fairly easy to remove but it has an intense holding power that is best handled by someone with experience. An alternative would be to use an oil based remover that helps the hair slide off in a minute or less. This method of removal is also the least likely to damage hair when done right. The tape method also allows for easy reapplication.

Many people who are in front of the cameras like this method because of the maintenance and natural flow of the hair. These styles also protect their natural strands from extreme conditions that come with traveling or being on a stage. For those who have active lives, this is a better choice than a wig, which can get hot and sometimes does not look natural.

While adding hair, or changing it, can be exciting, it also calls for maintenance. People who wear any type of weave have the double duty of caring for their own hair and the newly applied mane. Those with naturally curly tresses may find that a new type of conditioner may be needed since oil tends to separate most bonding methods. There are some products on the market made especially made for diverse hair types that will not affect the weave.

Hair weaves also allow people to transition from short to long hair without struggling for styles in between. To keep the hair underneath hydrated, it is best to use a conditioning shampoo, followed by a moisturizing treatment made from light oils. Salons often have people on site that can recommend the best protocol.

More people are jumping on this new method for many reasons. Unlike the old technique, the added hair lays flat and is hard to detect. Beside that lack of discomfort, these tend to cost less than the other labor intensive method. This is better than using bonding glue alone because the look can retain its style for many weeks before another application is needed.
