Tape in extensions made from human hair can be
colored

• Hair extensions made from human hair can be
  colored like your own natural hair while
  extensions made from synthetic hair not.
• If your hair extensions are synthetic hair, its
  hard to colour them because synthetic hair is
  made from plastic. If youre not sure what your
  hair extensions are made from, you can take a
  burn test.

Human hair extension can be colored darker or the
same color

• You can darken your hair extensions but its
  unlikely to lighten them.
• If the hair texture you chose has been colored,
  then youd need to bleach them first if you want
  to lighten them.
• However, they have been dyed using permanent
  dyes, the color can hardly been bleached and it
  is a very damaging process that will lower the
  quality of your hair extensions and shorten their
  lifespan.
• But if the hair texture you chose has no color
  options except natural color, then it is okay to
  be dyed or bleached to achieve hair color you
  want.

• Ps
• Avoid the tape area though in case that the
  dyeing process damage the attachment.
• Most hair extensions will absorb the colour
  faster than your natural hair.

Wash your tape ins regularly
Not washing for a long time or excessively
frequent washing ruin your tape in hair
extensions in the same degree. Cleaning your hair
extensions and scalp regularly will protect your
tape in extensions from slippage and rubbing
damage. Do not apply conditioner to tapes

hours at least before washing after
installing. Leaving some time for the tapes to
bond with your natural hair. Washing your hair
immediately just after installing will wet the
tapes and theyll stop bonding and slip out while
youre washing your hair or brushing it.

Brush your tape in extensions regularly
Brush your tape ins every day to minimize
tangles. The less you brush it, the worse it be.
It is always a good way to brush through your
curly or kinky textures with a spray bottle.

curls by hand to maintain the form.

Night care is vitally important
Wear low ponytails, braid hair extensions into
little braids and use a satin scarf or bonnet are
available ways to keep extensions protected
during sleeping. Making it easier, you can
sleep on a silk or satin pillowcase. Curly and
kinky textures could be braided into two or four
sections before adding the protective coverings.
