Tape Adhesives No-Shine Ultra Hold Duo-Pro Ultra Hold Single-Sided Pro-Flex II Lace Front Support Non-latex and Non-flammable Shelf Life: one year from shipping date Specifically made for hair extensions in standard sizes for most hair extension wefts. All tapes are available in tape tabs and most are available in special roll sizes. All tapes are double-sided and are also available in single-sided tape tabs. Tape tabs are pre-cut pieces of tape with a splice down the middle of the liner so it s easier to remove the liner from the tape. The benefit of tape tabs is that it s easier to re-apply tape to the weft of the hair extension. Standard-sized tape tabs are 5/16 W x 1 9/16 L (0.8 cm x 4.0 cm) Custom sizes of tape tabs are available upon request for an additional charge. A patch test is recommended to make sure the client is not allergic. We recommend removing all tapes no more than five weeks after install. 1
