Tape-In Extensions: 7 Things You Should Know Before Booking
Tape-in extensions are one of the most requested hair extension methods—but they’re not one-size-fits-all. Before booking your appointment, here are seven things you should know to make sure tape-ins are right for you.
1. Tape-ins work best on fine to medium hair
They lay flat and create a natural blend without adding unnecessary bulk.
2. Maintenance matters
Tape-ins require maintenance every 6–8 weeks to keep them looking seamless and to protect your natural hair.
3. Oil placement is crucial
Applying oils too close to the adhesive can cause slipping. Proper aftercare is non-negotiable.
4. They’re lightweight—but not invisible on everyone
If your hairline is fragile or very sparse, another method may be better.
5. Styling is flexible
You can curl, straighten, and style freely when installed correctly.
6. Quality hair makes the difference
Luxury hair lasts longer, blends better, and minimizes matting.
7. Professional installation is key
Poor placement can lead to tension or visibility.
At our Williamsburg, Brooklyn salon, tape-ins are installed with hair health as the priority—not speed or shortcuts. Always book a consultation before committing to this method.
If you’re ready to stop guessing and start working with structure, education paired with the right service plan makes all the difference.
