You’ve got to admit that hair extensions have revolutionized the way we quickly have access to gorgeous, long, voluminous hair. The beauty industry has never been the same since the trend hit the runways, and tape in hair extensions have become one of the healthier ways to achieve an enviable mane and can last for up to two months or more.

We know that women fall hard for tape-ins because these hair extensions have three major benefits going for them:

1. They do not damage your real hair.
2. They are easy to install and remove.
3. They lie almost perfectly flush against your head, so they appear more natural.

Tape in hair extensions do not require any tools, sewing or glue. In fact, these one-inch wide strips come with a peel-off sticker back for quick application. However, these hair extensions still need the skilled hands of a salon pro who knows exactly how to install them for a flawless head of fantastic hair.

With tape-ins, our Twisted Sisters stylist will begin by applying a thin strip of your natural hair between the extensions. The best way to imagine the technique is to think of a sandwich. Your own hair gets taped between two strips of hair extensions.

When properly installed, the look is natural, seamless, and awesome!

Our hair extensions experts will have you in and out of the salon chair within about 45 minutes, and there is more great news.

Tape-ins are long-lasting, too, and some women have had theirs for more than two months. Just return to our Indianapolis salon for an adjustment. We will move them up because of hair growth naturally occurring every six to eight weeks.

When it comes time to remove them, our Twisted Sisters salon pros can perform the process gently and correctly. The adhesive will dissolve after we spray a unique solution at the root of the tape-ins and peel them off.

There is no damage done to your hair, and these extensions can be used again.

When it comes to caring for tape in hair extensions, we recommend only using sulfate-free hair care products to maintain their longevity and appearance. Also, use a uniquely-designed hair extensions brush to brush your mane three times a day. The protective bristles have been specially made for hair extensions.

Be gentle, and never rub your hair while shampooing. Using dry shampoo is another way to extend the life of your tape-ins.

If you are unsure about tape in or hand tied hair extensions, the first step is to set up a consultation with your stylist, whether at our Westfield salon or beyond. They will be able to evaluate your hair and let you know which is best for you.

When it comes to the hand-tied installation, these extensions are even suitable for damaged strands. Hand-tied means no tape, no glue, and no heat. Instead, we bead the natural hair, and then, we hand-tie or sew the extension weft onto your natural hair.

You can wear a high ponytail or top-knot because you’re getting a seamless blend. These extensions are only placed on a small percentage of your hair, so you’re getting impressive volume and length with the ultimate protection.

Hand-tied extensions create a long-lasting result of six months or more with the average reinstall of about 6 to 8 weeks.
