When it comes time to remove tape-in extensions, you’ll need a remover solution! Tape in extension remover is specially formulated to neutralize and dissolve adhesive or residue from the hair. The last thing you want to do is to try to remove your extensions without it (this will cause damage to the natural strands and extensions!).
Always use a hair extension glue remover to make removal a breeze! Now, let’s go over what tape extensions removal solution is made of and how it works. Then, we’ll give you some product recommendations from our Big Kizzy line of professional removers. You’ll be a tape-in remover pro in no time!
How Does Tape Extensions Removal Solution Work?
Are you wondering what remover is made of and how it works? Generally speaking, you’ll find tape in extension remover that uses two main ingredients: alcohol and oil. So, how does each type of remover work? Let’s explore the details of each!
Alcohol-Based Removers
When using an alcohol-based remover, it quickly neutralizes the adhesive and then evaporates. This means there’s no lengthy clean-up involved after removing tape-in extensions. Since the alcohol temporarily neutralizes the adhesive, you’ll need to remove the wefts before the alcohol evaporates.
Oil-Based Removers
If you choose an oil-based remover, it works fast and usually only needs one application to remove your tape-in extensions. It’s gentle on the hair and has a formula designed to disintegrate the adhesive with the oil. You’ll be able to easily remove the extensions, but an oily residue usually remains in the hair. After removal, you’ll need to wash the hair thoroughly to get the remaining oil and residue out.
Which Remover Solution Should I Use for Tape-In Hair Extensions?
Not sure what type of remover you need for tape-in extensions? Each adhesive is different, and so are each person’s specific hair extensions. Depending on the brands you’ve used and how long the extensions have been in, you can find a remover that works best for you!
