What Are Tape-In Hair Extensions?

Imagine having long, flowing locks all day, every day for at least 8 weeks. No more spending 30 minutes of your morning fiddling with clip-in hair extensions, tape-In extensions offer luscious hair on a semi-permanent basis. 

How Do Tape-Ins Work?

Although you can install tape-in extensions yourself – hair extension brand, ClipHair, highly recommends getting your tape-in hair extensions installed professionally for best results. The whole process takes around two hours, but considering the results last 8-10 weeks, it’s totally worth it!

The procedure is quite simple – a professional stylist places the tape underneath a small section of your hair root and tapes in the extension. Don’t worry, the scalp is avoided to protect the hair root and to provide the utmost comfort.

Tip: If you choose Remy human hair you can curl, straighten and blow-dry the extensions just like natural hair. You can also dye (but not bleach) Remy hair if you fancy a colour refresh. We love Cliphair’s Remy tape-in hair extensions because they are easy to clean, stay soft, glossy and won’t mat.

Plus, the hair strands inRemy hair extensions have the cuticles intact, which means the extensions will mimic the flow, direction, and movement of your natural hair.
