Are tape-in hair extensions less damaging than other types of extensions?

[annasent]

Yes, tape in hair extensions are generally considered less damaging than other types of extensions, especially when applied and removed correctly. Here’s why:

1. Minimal Strain: Tape ins are lightweight and distribute the weight of the extension evenly across the scalp, reduce strain on your natural hair.
2. No Heat or Harsh Chemicals: Unlike fusion or bonded extensions, tape-ins don’t require heat, glue, or chemicals for application, making them gentler on hair.
3. Easy Removal: The removal process involves using a special adhesive remover that prevents hair breakage.
4. Protective Application: When applied properly by a professional, they caus less damage to the natural hair.

However, not good installation, lack of maintenance, or using low-quality products can still lead to breakage or hair loss. To keep your hair healthy, follow aftercare instructions, avoid applying heavy oils near the tapes, and schedule timely reapplications.
