Removing Tape in Extensions

Step 1: Prepare Your Hair
Brush out tangles and section hair for easier removal.
Step 2: Apply Adhesive Remover
Spray or apply remover to saturate the tape tabs. Wait 3-5 minutes to soften the adhesive.


Step 3: Gently Remove Extensions
Peel apart the extensions slowly, starting from the edges. Avoid pulling—reapply remover if needed.
Step 4: Clean Residue
Use remover or natural oil (like coconut oil) to rub off leftover adhesive.


Step 5: Wash & Condition
Use a clarifying shampoo, then deep condition to restore moisture.
Tips for Easier Removal:
- Don’t rush: Take your time to avoid damaging your hair.
- Use high-quality products
- Seek professional help
What to Avoid
Pulling or ripping the extensions: This can cause breakage and damage to your natural hair.
Using harsh chemicals: Avoid acetone or alcohol-based products, as they can dry out and damage your hair.
Skipping aftercare: Always wash and condition your hair after removal to keep it healthy.
By following these steps, you can safely and effectively remove your tape-in extensions without causing harm to your natural hair. If you encounter any difficulties or have concerns, don’t hesitate to reach out to your hairstylist for professional guidance.
