Do Tape-in Hair Extensions Really Damage Your Hair?
Hair extensions have been around for years, but what are they and can they work for you? Picking the right kind of extensions can be overwhelming with so many options. However, taking time to consider your hair type, lifestyle and the look you are going for will help find the right one.
What is tape in hair extensions?

With a medical-grade adhesive and pre-taped wefts made of human or Remy hair, tape-in extensions are convenient for those who want to try out the look without making a long-term commitment.
How long do tape in extensions last?
Tape-in hair extensions are semi-permanent. If you take good care of them and your hair grows fast, they will last around 4 to 8 weeks before they need to be replaced.
Do tape-in hair extensions cause damage?

Correct application of tape-in hair extensions can significantly reduce damage to the natural hair. However, permanent hair extensions may cause some damage. Thin-haired women who are looking to hide any damage from coloring and other chemical processes may find that using just a few tape-ins can give them a fuller look. Because the wefts are only an inch wide, they tend to be lighter and more comfortable than wider wefts. However, if hair wraps are overused or misused, they can cause breakage and damage to natural hair. Ensure the hair is healthy enough to hold or bond with the adhesive before application, and first-time wearers should do a full inspection after the first removal to check for any damage.
One of the most common mistakes people make is trying to apply or remove tape-in hair extensions on their own. This is hard to do correctly, and doing it improperly can pull out your natural hair or break your best human hair extensions bonds, leaving you with little or no hair left.
So, who should wear tape-in hair extensions?
