Tips to choose the right Tape Hair Extensions

So, if you are looking to get hair extensions but with so many different products in the market how do you choose which is best for your hair that will give you the look you want. Well the newest form of hair extensions that are on the market are tape hair extensions. The good thing about the tape product is it eliminates the stringy look that single bond extensions tend to give.  

Micro rings and keratin bonds both take small sections of hair which over time can put a lot of stress on the hair. Especially as the ring on the micro ring is metal which is not good for fine hair. Keratin bonds also use heat to either melt keratin around the hair or mix into the hair.  The beauty of tape hair extensions is that there is no heat or metal loops or keratin.  The overall look is much fuller connected and looks more natural than single bonded methods. If you decide you want to give tape hair extensions a go, here are some important aspects that you need to look at before going ahead. Also let’s bust some myths about tape hair extensions.

When tape hair extensions first entered the UK market there was a lot of bad performing products that left sticky residue in the hair. This is not what you want put in your hair as it can be a nightmare to get out. You need to find a high-performance product that does not do this and if you do your research you will find them.

It’s also important to choose a high grade of hair, Russian or European is the best in the world. But there is another twist to the story there are many brands saying the hair is European and its Chinese. You will know by the quality of the hair Chinese hair is super straight and the European hair has more of a natural wave.

Also, there are some dodgy Chinese tapes out there that are super plastic where the hair Is attached. This area is thick and bulky and don’t stay in the hair they tend to keep falling out.

There are some tape products out there that are made from a silk where the hair is attached to, these are less thick and less bulky and means the product is a good quality one.

Last but not least No tapes will not damage super fine hair, when they are applied correctly they work extremely well on thin hair, but of course its always super important to find a top hair  extension expert to fit your tapes.
