Experiences on tape in hair extensions

Hi guys ! I haven't been on here in a long time! Glad to see a lot of the same people (from way back when we did the lunch in long beach ca) anyways....I have been trying to research tape in hair extensions (to add to my salon and to add thickness to my own hair) I need feedback... I was trying to look through he board and did some searches but nothing really came up that helped too much... Maybe I searched wrong? If there are already links to my questions please direct me to the right place :-)

These are my questions on seamless skin weft tape hair extensions


Does this method with proper care seem to cause less damage that fusion bonds? Have a lot of people switched to this method from other methods?

How long do they honesty last on average before they slipper or need to be redone (so it doesn't damage hair)

I have seen some people use a flat iron to heat the
Together and some people not... And I read some people put liquid gold in there too... I would love feedback on this

Is there different levels of tape ? Some tape stronger than others?

What is the best remover?

And what have people found to be the best brand that holds up a few installs and does not shed (I am not looking for a bunch if businesses to sell me their product, I am looking for people who have used it and what they found)



I currently have one sample piece in my hair sent to me from p.d.trends... And I like it. It's only been 3 days but it held a curl well and seems like it won't shed.. But it seems costly and they don't sell it in smaller packs.. (Just 40 piece) ... And not every client I do or myself (for my own hair) needs that much...

Thanks in advance
