When it comes to ensuring your hair replacement system stays securely in place, the right tape and adhesive play an essential role. At TopLace, we understand how important it is for you to feel confident, comfortable, and natural when wearing your hair system. The good news is that there are many options available, depending on your lifestyle and how long you want your hairpiece to last between applications. Below, we'll explore some of the top hair replacement accessories and their benefits, helping you make the best decision for your needs.
DuoTac 1" Strip
One of the most reliable options for extended wear is the DuoTac 1" Strip. This double-sided adhesive tape works wonders on both poly and lace-based systems. Its key feature is that it's laminated, ensuring durability while giving a natural appearance to the hairline. The thin design (just 9.5 mils thick) makes it nearly invisible, which is perfect for achieving that natural look. Plus, it's clearly marked, so you'll know exactly which side to use depending on whether your system is poly or lace.
DuoTac A Contour
If you're looking for a contoured adhesive tape, DuoTac A Contour offers all the benefits of the 1" strip but with an easy-to-use curved design. The contour shape allows for a secure and seamless fit, especially around the frontal areas of your hair system. Like the 1" strip, it provides a strong hold for extended wear, which means fewer touch-ups and more confidence as you go about your day.
Lace Release Dab On
Removing your hair system should be as easy as applying it. That's where Lace Release Dab On comes in. This product is essential for anyone using lace-based systems as it helps break down the adhesive without causing any damages the delicate lace material. With just a few dabs, you can safely remove the hairpiece, reducing the risk of tearing or stretching the lace. Simply wait 30-60 seconds, and your system will come off smoothly.
PURE Adhesive Remover
When it comes to keeping your hair system in top condition, adhesive build-up can be a challenge. The PURE Adhesive Remover gently removes adhesive residue without causing damage to the hairpiece or your skin. Its non-oily formula and light musk scent make it pleasant to use. If you've had bad experiences with harsher removers, this one is definitely worth a try.
SUPERTAPE Low-profile
Another excellent option for those seeking a strong yet discreet adhesive is the SUPERTAPE Low-profile. This tape is thinner than standard tapes, making it ideal for front hairlines. It adheres to any base material without breaking down, offering a long-lasting hold and easy clean-up.
Safe Grip Adhesive
If you're looking for a full head bond, Safe Grip Adhesive is a great option. This water-based co-polymer adhesive can provide a secure hold for 3-4 weeks, making it perfect for extended wear. It's especially good for people who tend to sweat, as its water-resistant properties help maintain the bond. Plus, it dries clear and is easy to clean.
Walker Mity Tite Brush On Adhesive
For short-term wear or daily use, Walker Mity Tite Brush On Adhesive is an ideal solution. This acrylic-based adhesive works well with both lace and polyurethane systems, holding for up to 10 days. The built-in brush applicator makes it convenient to apply precisely where needed, ensuring a secure bond without a mess.
Walker No-Shine Tape
One of the biggest concerns when it comes to adhesive tapes is shine. The Walker No-Shine Tape solves this problem. It offers a matte finish, making it perfect for front hairlines where you want to avoid any noticeable shine. With a hold time of up to four weeks, it's a reliable option for long-term wear, providing the strength of traditional tapes without the glare.
Choosing the Right Adhesive for Your Needs
Selecting the right tape or adhesive depends on several factors, including the type of hair replacement system you're using and how long you want the bond to last. For those looking for a strong, extended hold, SUPERTAPE Low-profile and Walker No-Shine Tape are great options. If you prefer something lighter for daily wear, Walker Mity Tite Brush On Adhesive might be your best choice.
