Are Tape Wefts Better Than Regular Tape-In Hair Extensions?

Updated: Oct 19, 2022



Regular tape in hair extensions have been around for a while, but now a new type of tape extension has hit the US and Canada market from Brazil called Tape Weft Hair Extensions. Are they better? Well let's take a look...


Tape Weft Extensions are the same thing as regular tape in hair extensions except they are one long strip instead of small pieces. They are applied the same way: the client's hair is sandwiched between two tape panels. The hair itself costs about the same. The at home care is the same. The install lifespan is still about 6 to 8 weeks.


So what's the difference? As a hair extension specialist and hair extension tape weft user, here are 3 reasons why I love tape weft hair extensions over regular tape ins:



Blanket-Like Coverage

Because they are long strips, they give a blanket-like coverage which means instant length and mega volume. It's like regular weft hair extensions but without the chunky metals beads (that fine haired girls hate) so they lay super flat to the head. As a stylist - the after results are amazing.



Better Grow Out

Unlike the regular tape in hair extensions that tend to twist and flip outward once they have grown out (making them easily seen), tape wefts extensions don't do that. Because they are one long strip they just continue growing downward with the hair and literally can't flip or twist.



Quick and Easy

And the best part - the install time for a full head application on average is about 45-60 minutes! Which means less chair - making them more affordable than any other hair extension method type. And who doesn't love saving time and money?

They are also super easy to install (want to learn), I even some some DIY customers who buy the hair and do it themselves (for best results go to a certified professional).
