Five good reasons why you should choose the tape-in hair extension method over other hair extension methods:
Cost
Tape-in hair extensions are not as expensive as the other semi-permanent hair extension method available in the market; both buying the hair and applying it doesn’t cost much. There are so many reasons why tape-ins are not costly. Unlike other hair extension methods, tape-ins require less application time and this reduces the application cost. Also, the structure of the tape wefts makes maintenance very easy, thereby reducing maintenance cost as well.
Lastly, tape-in extensions consists of 1-inch panel of hair which makes its application easier and faster, unlike individual extensions. All these features combined make tape-ins more cheaper than fusion, micro bead, I-link, and every other hair extension method.

Low Maintenance
Tape-in hair extensions are very easy to maintain. This is because they have a slender design and a 1.5 inch width. Tape-ins are so easy to maintain that most people usually forget that they’re wearing tape-in extension until about 3 months, when it’s time for maintenance. However, it is important to note that buying low quality non-remy tape extensions will lead to a bad experience. This is because, tape extensions are worn everyday and if the quality of hair is bad, they will get spoiled quickly. Therefore, when buying tape extensions, go for the brands with higher quality. Although you may spend more in the beginning, but in the long run, you’ll save a lot of money because high quality tape extensions don’t shed or tangle and can be used more than once. With good quality tape extensions, maintenance becomes very easy.

Least-damaging
With tape-in extensions, you’re sure of not losing a great deal of hair. Out of all the hair extensions in the market, tape-ins offer the least hair damage because they are weightless and do not forcefully uproot your hair like other extensions do. For instance, clip-in hair extensions have a lot of weight, so if you wear them on a daily basis you may end up with bald spots. If you have fine hair, it is not advisable to use individual extensions like fusion and micro because they tangle a lot and you could lose a lot of hair in the process of untangling.
Tape-in hair extensions are the best. They can be worn comfortably and are very easy to remove. Therefore, if you must avoid hair loss that comes with wearing extensions, you need to choose tape-ins.

Reusable
Tape-in extensions can be used more than once; in fact, they can be worn up to 3-4 times in a year. This is a huge benefit especially if you want to customize your hair extension to a certain style or color. With tape extensions, you just have to do it once and then you can reuse it for 3-4 times before personalizing again. For repeated usage, just remove the tape, clean them, add a new tape and wear them again. Please note, reusing of tape-ins can only be enjoyed if the tape extension is of high quality. If they have bad quality, you may be forced to remove them every 4 weeks. Unlike tape extensions, individual extensions cannot be reused and clip extensions wear out within a period of 6 months. Also, it takes just 15 minutes to remove a tape extension while individual extensions require at least 2 to 3 hours of hair pulling and tugging to come off.

Invisible and Flexible
Tape-ins are clearly better than clips because unlike clips, you can do a lot of things with tape extensions.
You can wear them in super high ponytails, braids or any other type of hairstyle. They are so slender that you may not even feel them when you wash or brush your hair.
Also, tape-ins are better than individual hair extensions because they dry more easily when you wash and blow-dry your hair. Individual extension are not slender at all. They tangle a lot and this makes it very difficult to take care of them.
Tape-in hair extensions are really the best method out there in the market, that is why celebrities and fashion icons prefer to use them.

If you are looking to try out hair extensions for the first time or you’re tired of clips and individual extensions, then tape-in hair extension is the best option for you. Just make sure you get high quality tape-in extensions and you’ll enjoy every bit of using the tape-in hair extension method.
