- Hair wig tape
● Hair wig tape is a double-sided medical tape that you can use on your skin.
- Wig Brush
● It’s best to brush your wig after you wash it, especially if you have tangles. Brushing removes the tangles and helps your wig maintain its shape.
- Wig Stand

● What is hair wig tape?
Hair wig tape is a double-sided medical tape that you can use on your skin. It comes in different shapes, sizes, and strengths to suit what you need it for - whether it is strips or dots. You also have the choice of buying hair wig tape in rolls or singles!
To keep your wig in place, you can attach silicone strips or patches to the side of the head where it will be sitting. You can also add hair wig tape to a wig that already has silicone patches or strips where it positions in front of your ears.

● How to use hair wig tape?
● To ensure the hair wig tape sticks, make sure your skin is clean and dry before applying it.
● Cut hair wig tape strips to the desired length, enough for all the areas where you want to secure your wig.
● Peel the silicone backing off one side of the hair wig tape and place it onto the area where you want to secure your wig.
● When you are ready to put on your wig, carefully peel the hair wig tape off of one side and then slowly slide it over your head. Avoid touching the adhesive while doing so.
● Position your wig where you’d like it to be. Then, apply pressure to the hair wig tape in order for it to adhere better. If done correctly, you are ready to go!

● How to remove hair wig tape?
Wigs are great for making an instant change, but wearing a wig for a long time is different from popping one on and off at the start and end of the day. We recommend getting advice if you plan to wear it all day.
To remove hair wig tape, you can use an alcohol-based adhesive or solvent remover. Dip your cotton ball in the solvent and gently dab along the hairline where the hair wig tape is attached to release its adhesion. Slowly pull up on your wig until it’s loose from any remaining pieces of hair wig tape that might be sticking around. If the hair wig tape hasn’t fully come off, just keep applying more adhesive remover - they'll soon come loose too!
Once you’ve removed your wig, you can take off all the sticky leftover bits left from the hair wig tape from your skin with the adhesive remover. To remove the residue from inside the wig, you can use a microfiber towel. It is also recommended that you shower and moisturise after this process so that you remove the rest of the residual adhesive remover from either your hair or skin.
-
● How long can you leave hair wig tape on?
You can use it for all kinds of hair-related products, including wigs and toupees! The hair wig tape will provide a long-lasting hold for 2 to 4 weeks. Depending on the temperature, humidity, and body oils, they could last up to 6 weeks. The time length for hair wig tape is different for everyone because all skin types are different.

● What are the advantages of hair wig tape?
● Hair wig tape is available in various designs including spot tabs, pre-cut strips and a roll. Feel free to use each hair wig tape until you find the one that you prefer.
● Some wigs are designed with polyurethane tabs, especially for hair wig tape that guarantees a stronger grip.
● Hair wig tape secures your wig very well. If you’re working out or want to dance like crazy at an event then the hair wig tape will keep it secure.
● A roll of hair wig tape can normally last for a long time and this makes hair wig tape a perfect budget-friendly choice.
-
● Is glue or hair wig tape better for a lace front wig?
If you want to make your lace wig extra secure and visible, there are two ways to do this. You can use a special type of hair wig tape or glue that will stick the lace firmly in place on your forehead. These types of adhesives usually don't have any shine so they won't be seen through the lace fabric! If you've never put one of these wigs on before, it may be best if you consult with a professional first.
One of the benefits of lace wig tape is that installation takes less time than glue and does not harm your hair. Installation only requires 30-60 minutes, so you can wear a wig for longer periods! Longevity is an important factor to take into account: it ensures our wigs stay on all day long. The absence or lack of this hair wig tape will hinder you in wearing your wig for long periods of time.
-
● Is hair wig tape safe?
All hair wig tape products that are sold internationally must have a data safety sheet. The quality and toxicity of these products have already been tested to ensure they are safe.
It is important to check out the safety data sheet before deciding on which hair wig tape strips to use for attaching a thin skin hair system or lace toupee. It will list any information about the chemical properties, toxicological info and material specs that people may have questions on. You can read the information to see if the hair wig tape doesn’t contain any lead, mercury or cyanide- things you want to be careful with when using your hair wig tape for lace front wigs!

● How do you perform a hair wig tape allergy test?
There are many different types of hair wig tape and these include short pre-cut pieces, front hairlines in an A-shape and long rolls of hair wig tape strip. You’ll want to purchase a double-sided hair wig tape so that you can ensure that the wig attaches itself well to both your hair and the base.
To perform the hair wig tape allergy test, you’ll need to choose a hidden area of skin such as the back of your shoulders or your wrists and stick a small strip of hair wig tape onto it. Make sure to keep the strip of hair wig tape on the skin for 24 hours and if you experience no irritation, it’s safe to use the strips. If you do experience irritation, take off the hair wig tape and test out another brand. You have a very small chance of experiencing irritation but if you do for all the brands then clip-on men’s hair systems are a risk-free way to attach the hair system to your head compared to hair wig tape.
-
● Does hair wig tape damage hair?
Hair wig tape can rip out your natural hair when you remove it. Even though hair wig tape is one of the most effective ways to attach a hair system to your head, it’s not worth damaging the natural existing hair that you have. If you’re concerned about hair loss and you have hair on your head then you can try other alternatives for securing a wig such as hair clips.
-
● Which hair wig tape is best?
When you're looking for quality hair wig tape to use on your wig, it is always a good idea to spend your money on something of higher quality. A good hair wig tape will work better and leave less residue so there is an increased chance of the wig staying put comfortably.
