Installation Steps:

Preparation -

Start with clean, dry, and product-free hair. Wash and dry your hair before installing the extensions.

Section your hair horizontally, starting from the nape of your neck and working your way up. Use sectioning clips to keep the rest of your hair out of the way.

Measuring and Placement:

Take the shorter piece of tape-in hair weft extension and measure it against the sectioned hair. Trim the extension if needed to match the width of the section.

If you get a friend to help you install the tapes, you can hold the sides of the hair on each side, in front of you, this allow the tape to stay firm in place.

Application:

Before removing the tape adhesive , use your tail comb to take a small section of hair from above the tape, this is the hair that will be used to sandwich the tapes together. Clip the hair above the tape.

Ensure that there's a small gap about 2 cm between the wefts to allow for natural movement.

Remove the tape adhesive starting from one side, while you do this release the hair to be used to sandwich the tapes together and place straight on the tape , make sure hair is being place straight to allow easy movement of hair afterwards.

As out peel the tape across, place all hair on it, then press firm with your tail comb.

Place the section tape over this to complete your weft.

Repeat the process, sandwiching the natural hair between two tape wefts.

Press and Secure:

Press the extension firmly to ensure a strong bond. Use a tail comb or your fingers to smooth out any air bubbles and ensure proper adhesion Use a hair dryer on a low heat setting to gently warm the adhesive and help it bond better.

Repeat:

Continue with the second tape, this is the largest tape in your pack. Make sure it is placed 5cm wider than the last one. You should know have 2 layers of tape weft .

For the sides, you will continue to place two layers, making sure they are placed 3 cm from your hair line, this enables you to put your hair up without seeing the tapes.

The tapes should be placed in horizontal sections, going down the head. Be mindful of the placement, ensuring that the extensions are evenly distributed and positioned securely.

Styling and Blending:

Once all the extensions are applied, style your hair as desired. Use a hairbrush or wide-tooth comb to blend your natural hair with the extensions for a seamless look.

Finishing Touches:

Trim and layer the extensions if necessary to create a natural, blended appearance.
