TAPE-IN EXTENSIONS

Everything you need to know about tape-in ​​extensions!
What are tape-in ​​extensions?

Tape-in ​​extensions are a special form of permanent hair extension. The name originally comes from English, with "tape" being best translated as "adhesive strip". With the help of adhesive strips or tape-ins, the strands are attached to the hair using a sandwich method. The tape-in ​​method is considered to be particularly gentle on the hair, as no heat needs to be applied and the extensions can be easily removed at any time using a special tape remover (also called tape-in ​​remover). Tape-in ​​hair extensions are also known as tape-on, tape extensions or tape hair.

Where do tape-in ​​hair extensions come from?

The history of tape-in ​​extensions takes us back to ancient Egypt. At that time, they were a sign of wealth and were often made of sheep's wool, but sometimes also of real hair. Different colors were sometimes used to dye hair, including blue, gold and red. Unfortunately, it is not known when and how exactly tape-ins were invented. What is known, however, is that resin or beeswax in the hair was used as extension glue. Fortunately, the process has improved greatly since then. Nowadays, of course, we no longer have to scrape beeswax out of our hair. And our high-quality ruby ​​tape-in ​​extensions also meet the highest Swiss quality standards.

How are tape-in ​​extensions applied?

Our adhesive extensions made of real hair are glued into the hair with invisible adhesive strips. Here you can find our step-by-step instructions for applying tape-in ​​extensions. They show you how you can apply your tape-in ​​extensions quickly and easily at home.

IMPORTANT: After applying them, you should ideally not shower or exercise for 48 hours in order to avoid sweating as little as possible.

Who are tape-in ​​extensions suitable for?

Tape-in ​​extensions made of real hair are perfect for anyone who wants a little change. This method is also suitable for people who suffer from fine and thin hair. It is considered one of the most gentle methods of hair extension and hair thickening.

Tape-in ​​hair extensions are suitable for every occasion. You can easily do sports with them or meet up with your friends for brunch. And in the evening, without batting an eyelid, you can turn everyone's head at the hot party with your trendy look.

Where can I find tape-in ​​extensions of the highest durability and quality?

Our high-quality tape-in ​​extensions last many times longer than competing products of inferior quality. Rubin tape-in ​​extensions meet the highest Swiss quality criteria because we only use real hair of the best Remy quality. Remy quality means that the real hair contains an intact cuticle layer and has not been chemically bleached. Due to its origin, it no longer needs to be adjusted through stressful color treatments. With this quality level, we ensure that the hair stays healthy and vital for longer. On top of that, it feels even softer and silkier. If you plan to wear your extensions for a long time and like a natural look, this quality is definitely worth it.

Since we know that not all customers have the same budget or the same preferences and requirements, we offer three different tape-in ​​extensions product lines in different price categories. What they all have in common is that they are made of 100% real hair in Remy quality and, if well cared for, can be reused with new adhesive strips when they have grown out after six to twelve weeks.

Tape-in ​​Hair Extensions Care

As our tape-in ​​extensions are real hair products, proper and thorough care is very important. Real hair pieces need gentle treatment. This is essential for healthy, shiny and long-lasting hair extensions. It is particularly important NOT to use silicones or hair oils when caring for them. These can dissolve the adhesive and permanently damage the product. Otherwise, the same extension care instructions apply as for our other extension products.

With our specially developed hair extensions care series, you can enjoy your new dream mane for noticeably longer! Thanks to their help, your extensions will last significantly longer than with conventional products. Glue-on extensions made of real hair are not connected to the scalp like your own hair. Therefore, they are not supplied with essential oils. Our care line therefore contains the highest quality and best possible ingredients
