Ra'pôr's Frequently Asked Questions

Proper care is crucial for the longevity of tape-in extensions:

• Wash Gently: Use sulfate-free shampoos and conditioners, avoiding products that can loosen adhesive.
• Dry Carefully: Pat extensions dry; avoid vigorous towel-drying.
• Detangle Regularly: Use a wide-tooth comb, starting at the ends and working upward.
• Avoid Heat Near Tapes: High temperatures can weaken the adhesive.
• Schedule Regular Maintenance: Reposition extensions every 4–6 weeks to prevent visible growth lines.

Blonde hair is prone to brassiness due to oxidation, mineral buildup, or fading color. Tips to prevent this include:

• Use Purple Shampoo: Neutralizes yellow and orange tones to maintain cool blonde shades.
• Filter Your Water: Install a shower filter to reduce mineral deposits from hard water.
• Protect from Heat: Use heat protectants before styling to prevent damage that can make brassiness more visible.
• Avoid Over washing: Washing too frequently can strip color; opt for sulfate-free shampoos.
• Limit Sun Exposure: UV rays can cause color fade; wear hats or use UV-protectant hair products.

Both types of extensions add volume and length, but their application methods and maintenance differ:

  • Durability: Long-lasting and lightweight, causing minimal stress on the scalp.
  • Appearance: Blends seamlessly for a natural look.
  • Maintenance: Requires adjustments every 6–8 weeks.
• Tape-In Extensions:
  • Application: Pre-taped wefts are sandwiched between sections of hair.
  • Durability: Quick to apply but may require more frequent maintenance (4–6 weeks).
  • Appearance: Lies flat against the scalp, ideal for fine hair.
  • Maintenance: Requires careful washing and styling to avoid slippage.
