How Tape-In Hair Extensions Work

Tape-in hair extensions work by securing human hair sections between adhesive strips and your natural hair. They offer an immediate boost in volume and length. The adhesive generally loses its effectiveness after 4 to 8 weeks, and the extensions can be either removed or replaced using a gentle solvent, but it is advised not to remove them before the 4-week mark.
