Tape in extensions should be removed and re-taped every 6-10 weeks.

• Do not wash hair extensions for 48 hours after application.  When conditioning you hair extensions, gently work the conditioner through your mid-lengths and ends, AVOIDING the scalp area

• Do not brush your hair extensions when wet. When brushing your extensions support the hair with one hand at the root to remove tension. Start brushing at the ends, and work your way up, not brushing at the roots!

• One of  the most important things, washing! Keeping your hair clean is of major importance. Hair tangles when it’s dirty so don’t forget to wash your hair frequently as it is needed. Make sure to use a mild shampoo in order to protect your locks. Ask your hairstylist for advice on which product you should use for your extensions. Brush your hair gently to untangle it before washing.

How to StyleThe biggest enemy of extensions is, heat! Therefore it is advisable to avoid blow drying as much as possible in order to ensure a longer life to your extensions. Avoid direct heat on the bond at all times!  I have 100% human extensions in my hair, and am using our mariomax Extensions Tabs  and I use a curling iron and flat iron daily and have never had a problem with my tape giving, but I do not put the heat directly on the bond!

• Wash your hair with gentle shampoo and lukewarm water then use a conditioner and let it air dry.  To prevent matting and knots, make sure your hair is thoroughly dry before you go to bed.

Going Swimming!

• Salt and chemically treated water alter the pH levels of the bonds, which compromises their adhesion possibly causing them to fall out.  Additionally sea, pool or spa water strips the treatments applied to the hair wefts, dramatically reducing their life, or permanently damaging them.  It’s advisable that if you choose to go to the beach or a pool, please tie your hair up to keep it dry, or wear a swim cap.

• Ever wondered “why use heat on tape in extensions?”  Here is the answer: applying heat can help cure the tape, giving it a tighter, stronger hold, but that isn’t the whole story! The stronger and longer hold is a great thing for some people! With that said, for most people it is not necessary. Extensions are meant to be removed after a certain amount of time to help keep your hair healthy. Long hold times are great so long as they aren’t at the expense of your natural hair.

  If you want to apply heat onto your tape in extensions be sure to apply the right amount! Below we will give you the right tips to help you apply this to our mariomax Tape!

  1. Check your flat iron and make sure it is on MEDIUM HEAT. You do not want it too hot!

  2. After installing the tape in extensions, using a flat iron on medium heat, clamp the 2 pieces for 2-3 seconds only! The heat makes the tape expand and grab onto the hair, then shrink back with a stronger, more flexible hold.

  3. After you have put heat on the tape, press FIRMLY together, starting at the middle and working towards the ends. If you do not press firmly, water can get in between the pieces and shorten the hold time.

  As always, if you try to do this at home make sure you consult with a professional stylist first.

  Tape In Tip

  When it comes to showering with your Tape-In Extensions there can be some questions and concerns. Such as “can I even get my extensions wet?” We want to be sure that you know and understand what you need to do to ensure the best hold with our mariomax tape.

  After Installation

  After your tape-in extensions are installed please wait 48 hours until your next shower. This will help your tape-in extensions stay in longer and give you a better hold. If you absolutely need to shower talk to your hairstylist first.

  Showering

  You should only be showering around two times a week. We understand that everyone’s hair is different due to the amount of oil your hair may have but we suggest this because your hair needs those nourishing oils that keep your natural hair healthy. For anyone withthick curly/wavy hair, you can get away with washing your hair once a week. If you feel that your scalp is getting oily, use a dry shampoo to absorb any excess oil your scalp may have. We also want to recommend that you use sulfate-free products because they can help your tape-in extensions last longer. They do not strip any natural oils and it will help keep your hair happy and healthy!

  Scrubbing your hair

  When showering we recommend that you do NOT scrub on the wefts. Try to focus on the scalp and then below. Scrubbing on the wefts could potentially loosing the bond and not give you as long of a hold as you wanted.  Gently apply your condition from mid strand to the ends of your hair.

  In-Shower Condition Treatments 

  If you feel your hair needs moisture and you have a coconut moisture treatment you would like to use, place it at the bottom of your hair and tape-in extensions. If you place it too close to the top your hair could weight your hair down and mess with your wefts.

  Drying your hair

  Do not brush your hair when it is wet. We also recommend that you do not wrap your head in a towel or flip your hair upside down and try to dry it with a towel. You need to slowly start at the ends and work your way up. Avoid squeezing and pulling your hair, slowly pat dry and reduce tangles.

  Swimming

  This part may not be about showering in particular but it deals with water and chlorine. If you are going on vacation or heading to the gym to work out in a pool we recommend wearing a shower cap. A shower cap will help protect the chlorine and chemicals from getting into your wefts
