Use Tape In Hair Extensions To Be Fabulous

By Christine White


There are more ways to wear cool styles without a wig or hairpieces that can be taken out easily. Weaves and extensions of today have come a long way and look more realistic than in previous generations. Wearing tape in hair extensions can lets the wearing have almost any style without pain or sitting in a salon for hours.

Anyone who chooses this application will find it presents the best of both worlds but last longer than bonding glue alone but like a lacefront wig, look very natural. This method is a great way to make it look thicker and fuller. It is also great for anyone who wants extensions that last a few weeks.

Like most weaves there are many different types of hair a person can switch from as often as they like. Once a professional removes the taped weft, the wearer can try a new style if their tresses are in good condition. Anyone who wants color can do this without dealing with mixing of chemicals and the expectations that come with using dyes.

Many people like this method because of the lasting results without a base to secure the hair. Before weaves required braiding or use of a cap to keep it in place. While this may be used with coarse or thick tresses, it may be best to use a professional for the first time or two.

One factor that may come into question is lifestyle. People who are athletic or sweat a lot may find that they have to shampoo more often than before. While dry shampoo may save some time or be done sparingly, the hair underneath will benefit from a rich lather and water. The extra time will prevent mold that can result from the excess moisture that can get trapped between the scalp and tape.

While the extensions will benefit from dry shampoo, the actual natural strands will need more attention. Anyone who washes their real hair daily and lets it air dry will be in for a big surprise. The section that is taped will need more drying time. One shortcut would be to wrap hair in a thick towel after washing or conditioning. Then create one quarter head sections and use a hand dryer on low.

People with a dry mane should be extra cautious because heavy oils may cause the extensions to separate. To retain moisture, using a lightweight moisturizer after drying will help prevent breakage. Pure coconut or jojoba oils are good for keeping strands healthy without being heavy. Hair that is dry should also take a week or two from weaves so the tresses can return to normal.

In order to stay looking good during the day, preparing for sleep time takes discipline. Placing in braids or an upward ponytail will prevent tangling that can occur while resting. Wearing a satin cap may help to keep hair from drying out.

Before making this investment, it may help to speak with a professional about the type and what is desired. For instance, a person who just wants volume may only require a few wefts but someone with a thick mane looking for length may need something different. They may have a specific directive to help the wearer get the most out of their extensions so that they will always look fabulous.
