How to install curly tape in extensions

Just wash and condition your curly hair and allow your hair air dry without heat. You can braid natural hair into 2 or more braids to make it dry overnight.

Section your hair from ear to ear in half up half down way and work on the front section at first.

Do a middle part and 2 side parts and leave out your perimeter.

Part out a row of hair between your half up and half down and leave them for covering the tapes later. Make sure you leave out enough hair so that they will cover tapes seamlessly and they won’t be exposed when you taking activities.

Use your finger or a comb to make a horizontal part about an inch away from the nape of your neck. The curly tape in extensions will be applied along the boundary and upper hair will hide the tracks.

  • You can use a hair tie or hair clips to clip the left curly hair out of the way or just braid them layer by layer, securing all the hair above the dividing line. Make sure it's completely cleared in case of any hair falling down sticking to the tapes while you're installing curly extensions.

Take two wefts curly tape ins and prepare to attach them. Basically there comes each weft with a blue tape. Peel off the little blue sticker and sandwich your natural hair between two wefts of tape in extensions. Mind to apply the curly tape ins evenly aligned with your roots but avoid hairline.

Put one weft above your curly hair and the other underneath the hair. But don't apply it too close to your scalp otherwise your hair will be stiff and you can not make much hairstyles any more.

Make sure that when you stick two pieces together it can freely flip upwards and downwards without tension on any of your hair. Literally press them together.

  • It’s alternative for you to use a flat iron on the tapes in medium heat and clamp the 2 stickers for 1-2 seconds after installing the tape in extensions which is conducive to attaching the extensions stronger and more flexible.

When you finish applying that first layer of tape extensions, hold the hair up and then clip them up out of the way. Sandwich the wefts layer by layer and turn to to the side parts to continue.

Release the leave out and blend your curly hair with the tape ins.

Spray some water and apply some curl cream to define your curls.

If you've never applied hair extensions before, it's also a good idea to go to a salon with your tape in hair extensions exactly. It’s incredibly quick, easy and pain-free.
