Avoid applying conditioner or oils directly to the tape area, as this can weaken the adhesive. Gentle washing and thorough drying at the roots help maintain bond integrity.<\/p>\n      <\/div><\/div>\n    <\/div>\n    <div class=\"gl-faq-item\">\n      <div class=\"gl-faq-q\"><h4>What products should you avoid with tape-in extensions?<\/h4><span class=\"faq-toggle\">+<\/span><\/div>\n      <div class=\"gl-faq-a\"><div class=\"gl-faq-a-inner\">\n        <p>Avoid oil-based, silicone-heavy, or alcohol-based products near the tape bonds, as these can break down the adhesive and cause slipping.

They are strategically placed to follow your natural hair patterns and sit flat against the scalp. As they grow out, careful styling may be required to maintain a seamless appearance.<\/p>\n      <\/div><\/div>\n    <\/div>\n    <div class=\"gl-faq-item\">\n      <div class=\"gl-faq-q\"><h4>Do tape extensions slip or fall out?<\/h4><span class=\"faq-toggle\">+<\/span><\/div>\n      <div class=\"gl-faq-a\"><div class=\"gl-faq-a-inner\">\n        <p>Tape-in hair extensions should not slip or fall out when applied correctly.

Proper aftercare helps maintain the longevity of the adhesive and hair quality.<\/p>\n      <\/div><\/div>\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n  <!-- APPLICATION -->\n  <div class=\"gl-faq-group\" data-cat=\"application\">\n    <div class=\"gl-faq-item\">\n      <div class=\"gl-faq-q\"><h4>How are tape-in hair extensions applied?<\/h4><span class=\"faq-toggle\">+<\/span><\/div>\n      <div class=\"gl-faq-a\"><div class=\"gl-faq-a-inner\">\n        <p>Tape extensions are applied by sandwiching small sections of natural hair between two adhesive tape wefts.
