Kinky Curly Tape-In Hair

Yes! It is possible for kinky curly tape-ins to blend with your natural hair, but it may take some effort to achieve a seamless look. There are some variables to consider: Like your hair type, hair color and texture, application technique, and blending technqiue. It is always a good idea to consult with a professional stylist before purchasing and installing any type of hair extensions.

Kinky and curly tape-in extensions may require similar levels of maintenance as curly hair or your natural kinky hair texture. Both types of extensions are prone to tangling and may require regular detangling to keep them looking smooth and healthy. To care for your kinky or curly tape-in extensions, it is important to use a sulfate-free hair care product line. You should also avoid using hot water when washing your hair and avoid brushing your hair. Avoid using heat styling tools and avoid sleeping with your hair wet or in a ponytail. It is also a good idea to use a leave-in conditioner or hair oil to keep the hair hydrated and reduce tangling. You can also use a wide-tooth comb or a detangling brush to gently comb through your hair and remove any tangles.

Okay, here we go! Are you ready to give your hair extensions a brand new lease on life with some fresh tape? First, let's tackle the old tape. Gently grasp the end of the tape and give it a firm, yet careful, tug. Yes, that's it! Keep going until you've removed every last inch of that old tape. Good work!

Now it's time to get out your new tape and get ready to give your extensions a fresh, secure hold. Cut a strip of tape to the perfect size and carefully position it into the extension. Smooth out any wrinkles or bubbles, making sure that the tape is laying flat and secure.

Now it's time to attach the extension to your own hair. Press it firmly into place, running a comb or brush through your locks to blend the extension in with your natural hair. And just like that, you're done! Your extensions are reinstalled and ready to go, giving you the beautiful, full head of hair you've always dreamed of.

Please note, these steps should only be performed by your hair stylist or hair professional.

We only recommend using very low heat to heat style your kinky tape-ins. They should retain the curl pattern, however curls will loosen if repeatedly using heat. To revive the curls, wash with sulfate-free curl care shampoo and conditioner, and use a deep conditioner for added bounce.

Sleeping

It is generally not recommended to sleep with kinky curly tape-in extensions. When you sleep, your hair rubs against your pillow, which can cause the extensions to become tangled and damaged. To protect your extensions, it is best to sleep with your hair in a loose braid or ponytail.

Swimming

It is generally not recommended to swim with kinky curly tape-in extensions. The chlorine in pool water can damage the hair fibers and cause the extensions to become dry and brittle. If you want to go swimming with your extensions, it is best to wear a swim cap or tie your hair up in a bun to keep it out of the water.
