So When the Pro-Tac Dries...

I've found that using conditioner on the tapes doesn't diminish their
wear-time one bit. If anything it contributes to the shininess and
smoothness of the dried hair and helps to wash out the stickiness that
accumulates.

The thing I find works best to combat the stickiness that gets worse
through the weeks of Protac wear is keeping the bonds very clean. Every
time I wash my hair I shampoo both sides of the tape right to the root of
the hair, then rinse rinse rinse until everything is really clean. I notice less
itchiness this way as well, and also less tangling. Initially I was trying to
keep the shampoo off the bonds. In about two weeks they were nasty
sticky, especially in the hair right under the tape. So I gave them a good
wash and a TON of the stickiness came off, but got stuck in the hair and
made some nasty tangles. Now I clean them well every other day when I
shampoo and have no sticky problem, whether I blowdry or airdry my
hair.

...it becomes less sticky?

I washed the weft for the first time tonight and it's a little sticky as it dries. Seems like it's no big deal and will just get pretty dry again, but I didn't want to blow-dry the roots because I'm wearing PH, etc.

In other words, it's cool to just air-dry this stuff?
