How To: Tape-In Hair Extensions | First Time | Irresistible Me

Hey guys welcome back to my channel, so in today's video we are going to be trying taping extensions for the very first time on my hair. I am absolutely super excited about it. You guys know that I have been wearing clip-in extensions for years and years and years now I've tried so many different brands, and this is going to be my first try: trans campin extensions, basically tapered extensions are like a semi-permanent type extension. They last about one to two months, depending on how well you take care of them, and the extensions that I want to be trying are Crom irresistible me. I have tried tons of their haircare products, as you guys know, if you guys have followed me here on my channel for a while, so they were kind enough to send me the tape and extensions, and I'm going to be applying them in my hair and see How well they go? I will also do a video on what I do remove them. If I have time to do so when the extensions one it's time for them to come out and everything like that, so they send you a whole package here. So the hair type that I have is thin, but I do have a lot of hair. So I guess you could say that my hair is kind of like a medium thickness, because I just have so much hair, but my hair is technically thin. So my main goal with the tape and extensions is length and tons of volume, and here this will me has just released new tape and extensions on their site. This video was supposed to happen like months ago, but they didn't have the extensions in my color in stock, so I had to wait for them to come back into stock before they could send me more, but it came in this little box. Right here just says, irresistible me, and then it says, hair extensions here and inside you get the extensions and you also get the tape in glue remover as well. So this will definitely come in handy when it is time to remove the extension. Basically, this is a hundred percent, pure it fractionated coconut oil to do this is just supposed to help kind of release the glue when it comes time to remove the extensions after about 8 to 12 weeks of wearing them. So I will let you guys know how this works. I can't tell you how this works right off the bat, because I have even put them in yet and then inside you get your extension now I decided to go with the color jet black and I got four sets. So each set is 50 grams, so all together I got 200 grams of hair, so one set is 20 inches, long and 50 grams of hair. So here's what they look like on the inside. You also get a little like you get the extensions over here and then you get like a side pocket over here and this side pocket is for a sample. So here is what the one sample looks like they do this, so you can try one of the samples and then, if you don't like it, you can return it without disrupting the packaging of the actual extension, so they can resell them. So I do like that. They do that, so I did open up one of the samples for you guys. So here's what it looks like it is jet black, which is the color of my hair, which should match pretty good, as you can see, and the tape and just look like that. They are pretty thin, so they're not thick by any means. I again, I've never tried taping extensions, so I don't know how they're supposed to feel or how they're supposed to look. This is all just kind of like one big try overview yeah. I have one two. Three four packets of here and I did woke up tons of videos and reviews on how to put in tape and extensions. I'M actually going to have my sister apply them for me, because there is no way I'd be able to do this by myself, especially the back of the head like it would just be a mess, if I did it by myself. I know a lot of people are going to say why don't you go and just get them professionally put in. I could that's definitely an option. However. Why would I want to spend $ 300 getting them put in when they're simple enough to do yourself? You know what I mean, so I am going to be trying this at home. Is it going to be absolutely perfect? I have no idea, but we're just going to give it a go, and hopefully it works out, and I also do have a coupon code for you guys. If you guys, are interested in trying Capon extensions for yourself. I have a 20 % off discount off the first order, with the code get 20 off. So if you guys want to try this for yourself, you can use that code to get that and they wanted to. Let me know to let you guys know. Sometimes they already have sales going on on their site, which in that case, the 20 % off code won't work. So just keep that in mind that make sure you're using the 20 all coat on something. That'S not already on sale and a cool thing about these tape and extension is that they are human hair. So you can wash them. You can style them. You can color them cut them anything. You want to do with them that you can. I will show you a close-up of the tapes. You guys can see what it looks like all right. So here's one of the tape and extensions you just have the tape on this side and the black color on the other side. So here is the natural length of my hair. It is just below my nipple area, that's all the information I have on the extensions right now I will do a voiceover at they are being applied, so you guys can see how how I apply them and afterwards I will film how they feel in my hair. How it is washing my hair for the first time and all that stuff as well, so without further ado, let's go ahead and jump right into the application part of this video. I'M super nervous super excited, and I really hope it goes well. So here we go. I hope you guys enjoy and I will see you after the application process, alright guys. So let's go ahead and get started on the application process, so I started the footage after having a few sets already put in that way, my sister could kind of get the hang of things and just kind of get a better groove, and then we filmed from Here on out just so, I could kind of explain it to you guys you guys can kind of see how they are applied. I do explain that my sister did put these in for me, so I didn't have any sort of professional hairdresser doing this. That, basically kind of tells you how easy they are to put in so basically all we did is we kind of mapped out areas of my head where we wanted to put the extensions first, we left a good inch or two on the bottom of my hair, With no extensions that way, I could put my hair up easily without having any of the tracks showing and then after we did that we kind of did like a brick method. So then we would take care, part it, and then we would take a little section of hair like you're seeing here and then we would take one of the extensions place it over top of the hair. Then we would take another extension and kind of sandwich you under that one which you are going to see in this part right here. So basically, it's a very repetitive process and pretty easy to catch on. You are basically just putting together two extensions and holding them down and so on and so forth. The most time-consuming thing about taping extensions is the amount of time it takes to part the hair, because, obviously you want your part to be perfectly straight and you want everything to just go smoothly. So that's was basically the longest part of it and then putting in the extensions only took a couple of seconds and then after we got some in my hair, we took a flat iron on low low heat and just held it over the tape. For about two to three seconds, this just kind of helps to bond the tape better and stronger, and that way they will stay in longer. So again, we are basically just going through and parting my hair, leaving about one inch in between each of the sets. So just kind of parting it over those one and then after she parts this section right here she is taking an even smaller section, and this is the section where the extensions are going to be placed. I really hope I'm explaining this well, I will have another video linked in the description box. That was actually really helpful to me and my sister, when we put these in so I'll, have that link down below if I'm not doing a very good job of explaining. But basically you part then take part of that one. And then that's where you kind of map out where you want the extension and make sure that the amount of hair that you're grabbing for the extensions is the same length as the extension. Because you don't want to put too much hair over it because then it won't stick as well. You know what I mean really hope. I'M explaining that well and since I have a small head, each section only took about three or four tracks, so I didn't need a whole lot of extensions put into my hair just because my head is quite small and then again after you finish a row, we Are just using low heat on the extensions to make sure that they are all bonded well and another really easy thing to start with is always start from the back of your head and then move up to the side, which is what we are going to get Into now, the size of the hair were a little bit more tricky because my hair doesn't really have a part. I don't ever part my hair a specific way. I kind of just roll, my hair, wherever it goes so for the sides of my head. What'S easiest for me, is we only put a few of the extensions on the side of my head that way, I didn't have to worry about parting, my hair perfectly everything. So if you're someone who does have a perfect part, then that is fine, but for me I just wanted a couple on the sides of my head and we just followed the same routine as we did and another thing is you don't want to put them too High up either so just kind of keep that in mind as well. Then, after every time you put in the extensions, we will go ahead and brush my hair out really well to make sure that we didn't mess up on any of them or make sure any of them. Weren'T sticking out and like I said it went really smoothly in the whole process, only took about two hours and then, after all, was said and done here is the finished product of my hair. Oh my gosh, they look absolutely amazing. I was, it was so worth sitting there for two hours. Everything is just super flowy and beautiful, and now we are going to jump into a two-day later update. Thank you all so much for watching application process, bye guys. So I'm here to do the final part of the years of school media tape in extensions hair video. I wanted to give you guys an overview because it is officially been two days since I have had my tape and extensions put in in the last two days. It has been a lot to adjust to because I have a ton more hair. Now I did just get home from work, so I'll just take them out of the ponytail. So I can let you guys see. So I have so much hair, as you can see here. So here's what my hair looks like with my ear down. I do have a ton more hair and they are in my head and they are in there pretty securely. As you can see, my hair looks a lot fuller. It is a lot longer. I did curl them this morning and I have them up to about here on my head and up to about here in the back of my head. So in total I have two sets plus maybe a little bit from the third set. So not even three sets is on my entire head, that kind of differs from person to person, because everyone's head shape is different. I tend to have a small head and my hair is more on the thin side. So I didn't need that many tape and extensions to fill my entire head and I went really smoothly it didn't hurt after I got them in. I know some people experienced like a sore head after they did their tape and I haven't there hasn't been too much eating. I can put my hair up. It don't feel a little heavy to have my hair up just because there is so many so much hair in my head. So but I can definitely wear a ponytail like this and as far as sleeping and washing my hair. So every night before I go to sleep, I take all of my hair after I brush it out really good, and I sleep with it like this, and then I braid this part and put a ponytail down here. That way, the hair is nice and secured and doesn't get all tangled up when I am sleeping and as far as watching my hair, I have not washed my hair. Yet it's been two days, so I have quite a bit of dry shampoo in my hair. They do say that you should wait at least 48 hours before washing your hair for the first time, everything has been going really. Well, I absolutely love it. I feel like I feel, like a Kardashian with my all my long hair like I just I absolutely love it, and this is just kind of like a two day update when I do remove them. I will kind of update you guys again on how the removal process was how my hair feels afterwards and just things like that. So, but I just wanted to kind of fill you guys in on how the last two days was been going. So if you guys might try cavemens, I highly recommend it if you're someone who doesn't have time to clip in hair extensions, everyday or you don't want to, you know, go and get fusions done. I think tapings are a really good alternative and another thing is having my sister do it. She saved me about $ 300 because they're so easy to put in that. You really don't need to go to a professional, so she saved me a ton of money by putting them in herself and she did a really good job like I'm super super happy with it yeah. I hope you guys enjoyed this video if you did give a thumbs up it go down and subscribe and make sure you stay tuned for the removal, video which will be a couple months from now, but you know still just keep an eye out for it. So yeah, that's everything that I have I'll see you guys in my next video. I love you so much fry
