Tea Cakes (#8/9) - Hand Tied Tape-In Extensions

1. Section clean hair horizontally.
2. Place one tape weft under a thin slice of hair, close to the root.
3. Press a second tape weft directly on top, sandwiching the hair between.
4. Gently use the Tape Clamp Tool to seal the bond, then continue row by row for a smooth, natural finish.

Daily Care

Brush 2-3 times daily with a soft-bristle brush, starting at the ends to avoid stressing the adhesive bonds. Secure hair in a loose braid or low ponytail with a satin scrunchie and sleep on a silk pillowcase to reduce friction.

Washing

Wash every 2-3 days with sulfate-free shampoo and conditioner. Apply shampoo to the scalp, rinsing through the lengths, and condition from mid-lengths to ends, avoiding the tape bonds. Pat dry with a microfiber towel and air dry or use a low-heat blow dryer.

Maintenance

Rinse after swimming or sweating to remove chlorine or salt. Visit a certified stylist every 6-8 weeks to reposition tape-ins as hair grows. Professional removal with an extension-safe adhesive remover is required.

Styling

Use heat tools up to 350°F with a heat-protectant spray. Apply a lightweight leave-in conditioner to mid-lengths and ends, avoiding bonds, and treat weekly with a nourishing hair mask for lasting softness.
