If you're looking to add length and volume to your hair in a way that's both seamless and natural, tape-in extensions might be the perfect solution. At Philocaly Hair, we offer high-quality Invisible Tape-In Extensions that blend flawlessly with your natural hair.



Here’s everything you need to know about tape-in extensions, from application to maintenance.

What Are Invisible Tape-In Extensions?


Invisible tape-in extensions are a popular method of semi-permanent hair extensions made from the highest quality Remy human hair. These extensions are designed to mimic hair growing from the scalp, providing natural and undetectable results. Available in 35 stunning shades, Philocaly's Invisible Tape-In Extensions are known for their ease of application and realistic appearance.


Benefits of Invisible Tape-In Extensions

Natural Look and Feel

Invisible tape-in extensions lie flat against the scalp, creating a natural look and feel that blends seamlessly with your hair.


Quick and Easy Application

The straightforward application process makes them a popular choice among stylists. Tape-in extensions cover a large area in a short amount of time compared to single strand methods.


Reusable

With proper care, these extensions can be reused several times. The adhesive tape can be replaced, allowing you to reapply the extensions.


Scalp-Like Appearance

Designed to mimic hair growing from the scalp, Invisible tape-ins are realistic and undetectable.


Safe Removal

Philocaly tape-in extensions leave no sticky residue on your client's hair, ensuring fast and safe removal.


High-Quality Hair

Each package is made from 100% single donor Remy hair with the cuticle intact, ensuring natural flow, movement, and longevity.

Application Process

Step-by-Step Guide:

Prepare Your Client’s Hair

Start with clean, dry, and tangle-free hair. Washing your client’s hair with a clarifying shampoo can help remove any product buildup.


Section Your Hair

Divide your client’s hair into horizontal sections, starting from the nape of the neck and working your way up.


Apply the Extensions

Take a small section of your client’s natural hair and sandwich it between two tape-in wefts. Press the tapes together firmly to ensure a secure hold.


Continue Upwards

Continue applying the extensions in sections, moving upwards towards the crown of your client’s head. Ensure the tapes are placed flat and close to the scalp for the best blend.


Style as Desired

Once all the extensions are in place, style your client’s hair as desired. You can cut, curl, or straighten your extensions to match your client’s natural hair.

Maintenance Tips

To keep your tape-in extensions looking their best, follow these maintenance tips:


Avoid Oily Products

Use sulfate-free and oil-free shampoos and conditioners to prevent the adhesive from breaking down.


Brush Gently

Use a wide-tooth comb or a brush designed for extensions to detangle your hair. Start from the ends and work your way up.


Wash Carefully

When washing your hair, avoid scrubbing the tapes. Instead, gently massage the shampoo into your scalp and let it run through the lengths of your hair.


Dry with Care

Pat your hair dry with a towel and avoid rubbing. If using a blow dryer, use a low heat setting.


Avoid Heat on Tapes

When styling with heat tools, avoid applying direct heat to the tapes to prevent weakening the adhesive.

Removal and Reapplication

When it’s time to remove your tape-in extensions, it’s best to visit a professional stylist to ensure the process is done safely and effectively. They will use a special adhesive remover to gently break down the tape, allowing the extensions to slide out without damaging your natural hair. The wefts can then be cleaned, re-taped, and reapplied. Visit our salon locator to find a verified-Philocaly stylist near you.
