Tape-in extensions offer a naturally full, lightweight, and flexible look that transforms your hair instantly. But as your hair grows, the tapes shift lower, creating tension and reducing the flawless blend you love. Regular maintenance is essential to keep your extensions comfortable, secure, and looking salon-perfect every day.
At IMH Studio, we specialize in professional tape-in maintenance using safe, gentle techniques that protect your natural hair while extending the life of your extensions. Whether your tape-ins were installed by us or elsewhere, our team ensures they stay fresh, flat, and seamlessly integrated.
Why Tape-In Maintenance Matters
As your natural hair grows, tape tabs gradually move downward. Without a move-up, this can lead to:
-
Visible gaps or uneven blending
-
Tension at the root
-
Slippage
-
Tangling where the tape has grown out
-
Discomfort when brushing
-
Shorter lifespan for your extensions
Regular maintenance keeps your tape-ins:
-
Secure
-
Comfortable
-
Smooth and flat
-
Perfectly blended
-
Long-lasting
This is the key to protecting your natural hair and keeping your tape-ins looking gorgeous.
How Often Should You Maintain Your Tape-Ins?
Most clients require a tape-in maintenance service every 4–6 weeks, depending on:
-
Hair growth rate
-
Hair thickness
-
Heat styling frequency
-
Daily lifestyle
Your IMH specialist will recommend the ideal schedule for your hair.

FAQ
What is a tape in hair extensions maintenance service?
Our hair extensions only salon provides three distinct maintenance services:
- Re-Taping Service: This option ensures your extensions are securely re-attached for prolonged use.
- Removal, Wash, and Re-Tape: This service involves refreshing both your natural hair and extensions, creating a revitalized bond.

How much does it cost to install tape in hair extensions?
The price for tape-in hair extension installation can fluctuate considerably, influenced by various elements such as the salon's location, the extensions' quality, the stylist's skill level, and the number of extensions required.
At IMH Studio, we offer tape-in hair extension services priced between 200 to 800 euros, potentially more, depending on these specific factors.
How long does tape in hair extensions maintenance service take?
Typically, maintaining tape-in extensions throughout the entire head can last around 4 hours on average. You will get a break while we wash and retape the bonds.
The duration required to apply tape-in hair extensions can differ due to a variety of factors, such as the expertise of the hairstylist, the total number of extensions being used, and the intricacy of your natural hair.
How long do tape in hair extensions last?
Typically, tape-in hair extensions require removal and reinstallation approximately every 6 to 8 weeks, although this can vary based on the extensions' quality, how well they're cared for, and the growth rate of your natural hair.
With proper maintenance and professional installation, these extensions can last over a year. At IMH Studio, we use natural virgin human hair for our extensions, ensuring their longevity and enduring quality.
How many packs of tape in hair extensions do I need?
Here's a basic estimate to help you determine the number of packs required:
Single Pack (20 to 40 pieces): Ideal for adding just a bit of volume or a few subtle highlights. One pack of tape-in extensions could be enough for a minimal enhancement.
Two to Three Packs (40 to 60 pieces): For a complete head installation, which increases both volume and length, 2 to 3 packs usually suffice for most individuals.
Four or More Packs: In cases of very thick hair or for those seeking a significant change with substantial volume and length, consider using 4 or more packs.
