Hair Extentions

Tape-In Hair Extensions

When it comes to hair extensions, there are many options.  In our salon we only use 100% human hair.  You can shampoo, blow-dry and style with hot tools at 350 degrees or less.  Tape-in hair extensions are sections of hair that are pre-taped with medical-grade adhesive. This kind of install is perfect for anyone looking for extra length, fullness and maximum versatility -- along with minimal tension.

Available in a wide variety of hair textures, ranging from pin straight to tightly curled, one of the pros of getting tape-ins is that you can achieve natural-looking extensions with length and volume, minus any tension. There is no braiding, sewing, or gluing involved.  The lengths of the extensions range from 12 inches up to 24 inches.  Tape-ins really stand out because people are so intrigued by the fact that you are literally taping hair to your head.  

Extensions require a complimentary consultation where we discuss hair color and the length you are looking to achieve.  There are many different colors and styles of tape-ins.  You can become very creative with the extensions, using lighter and darker extensions can achieve the look of low-lights or highlights.  

Clients are amazed you can shampoo their hair without the extensions sliding out.   You must use a salt and sulfate-free shampoo and conditioner to maintain the longevity of the extensions.  You can also reuse the extensions for many times as long as you care for them properly.

When it comes to the cons, one of the most significant is that tape-ins are a temporary style -- and routine salon maintenance is vital. If your tape-ins are not taken care of properly, it can cause matting and breakage.

Tape-ins can last six to ten weeks with proper maintenance and at-home care. To remove, a licensed cosmetologist uses a tape-in removal spray, to loosen the adhesive and make it easy for the natural hair to be separated from the tape.
