Hey everybody,I was just wondering what tape seems to hold the best and look the most natural (protac, prostick,supertape, etc)? And what method works the best? Like where to put glue and such? thanks.

Welcome pltnmblondelife. If you do a search on tape you should find quite a few threads on this subject. I think a lot of the ladies on this forum use protac, as I do myself. I have found it wonderful so far. I believe Aphrodiva posted this morning that she is trying supertape, so look for further posts on that.
 
As far as where to put the glue, again there are lots of threads on this, as well as some great tutorials posted by Sherrie and others. Usually, the glue is placed between the wefts, if you are double wefting OR on the top of the weft if you are using a half tape (someone just posted a great example with pictures a few days ago) OR on the actual weft to stick to the hair with no tape. Again, it depends what type of method you decide works best for you. It is a little bit of trial and error, but I have found the tape works really well and doesn't destroy my natural hair.
 
If you do a little research you will find everything you need on this forum! I have gone from having my extensions done by someone to becoming a pro in a few short months. Good luck!

I love the prostick, no slipping or sliding so far. Okay, I'm not a professional here and it's the first tape I've used, but I love it so far.
