Everything You Need To Know About Tape Hair Extensions
At Remi Cachet, we have a number of different methods in our Tape Hair Extension category. From Elegance Injection Tape® to Luxury Tape Hair, we have everything you need to know about the range...
What Are Tape Hair Extensions?
Tape Hair Extensions are a type of semi-permanent hair extension which consists of a specific sized weft which size differs depending on the product. These wefts are secured at the top of the extension with adhesive. Tape Hair Extensions are specifically perfect for your clients with fine hair or those who are first-time hair extension wearers that are dreaming of volume, length or a splash of colour.
Pros And Cons Of Tape Hair Extensions
The key benefits of using hair extensions as Tape Hair Extensions include:
Pros
- A great option if your clients are wanting something more permanent than Clip Ins.
- They are often favoured for the quick application process.
- They completely flat to the head for a natural look that works great in both thick and thin hair.
- Can be reused multiple times if removed correctly and re-applied with new tape.
Cons
- If you have a client that is a keen swimmer, this extension option may not be the most suitable for you as the Tape Tabs can weaken from the chemicals used in the pool. As always, speak to your stylist before making this decision.

Tape Hair Extension Maintenance
From fitting, you can expect your tape hair extensions to last for up to approximately 10 weeks before you will need to adjust and refit.
Regarding the hair itself, this depends on two things; the Tape Hair Extension product you use as each range has a different and your client’s aftercare routine.
As always, your clients following the correct aftercare advice and using the recommended products is essential to maintain the longevity of their hair extensions. For all things aftercare, our blog post summarises everything you need to know to explain to your clients so they can continue to have fabulous hair when they leave the chair.
