How do you stop tape in extensions from showing?

The easiest way to stop tape extensions showing is to choose invisible tapes in the first place, as the hidden adhesive design does most of the work for you. Beyond that, make sure your colour match is spot-on (our free colour matching service can help), have them professionally placed at the right distance from your scalp, and stick to wearing your hair down or in loose styles rather than tight, pulled-back looks.

Can I get hair extensions if I have alopecia?

It depends on the type and extent of hair loss. Tape extensions need a certain amount of natural hair to bond to securely, so they can work well for general thinning but may not be suitable for more advanced alopecia. We'd always recommend speaking with your doctor or a hair loss specialist first and then consulting with an experienced hair extensionist who can assess whether tape extensions (or another method) would work for your situation.

Remy Royale Invisible Tape In Hair Extensions

Invisible tape in hair extensions are the most discreet adhesive hair extensions available. Made from AAAAA grade, 100% Remy human hair, our invisible tapes feature a hair-covered adhesive tab that blends right in with your natural hair, making them virtually undetectable even up close. If you're after a seamless tape in hair makeover without anyone knowing, you've found it.

How Do Invisible Tape Extensions Work?

Invisible tapes work the same way as our Remy Royale tape in extensions, with one key difference. With standard tape in extensions, the adhesive tab is visible where the weft meets your hair. Invisible tapes solve this by extending the hair strands all the way up to the tab, completely covering the adhesive strip.

The result? Hidden adhesive extensions that blend with your natural hair so well, they're practically impossible to spot. They're applied by sandwiching a small section of your natural hair between two wefts, creating a secure bond with seamless natural hair blending.

Each pack contains 50g (20 pieces, making 10 pairs). Every weft is double drawn, meaning you get the same thickness from root to tip, with no wispy ends.

Why Choose Cliphair's Invisible Tape Extensions?

Our invisible tapes are part of the Remy Royale range, our AAAAA grade double drawn hair extensions collection. Every strand is hand-selected, cuticle-correct Remy human hair tape that stays soft, shiny and tangle-free for months with proper care.

Because the hair is cuticle-correct (all cuticles running in the same direction), you get a natural finish that moves and feels like your own hair. You can heat style, wash and even tone these extensions, just like the real thing.

We stock invisible tape hair extensions in the UK with fast delivery options, and our team of real hair experts (never chatbots) are here to help with colour matching and product advice. If you're also exploring other premium methods, our flat weft extensions offer another discreet professional option.

Who Are Invisible Tape Extensions Best For?

Invisible tapes are a brilliant choice if you want discreet hair extensions that add volume and length without anyone noticing. They're particularly well suited to:

Fine or thin hair: the flat, lightweight tabs sit flush against your scalp, so there's no bulk or visible ridges
Anyone wanting tape extensions for thin hair: the invisible tab design means less chance of extensions peeking through
Hair-down styles: they look their absolute best worn down or in loose, low updos

One thing to keep in mind: invisible tapes (like all tape extensions) aren't ideal for high ponytails or tightly pulled-back styles. If you love a snatched updo, nano ring extensions are a better fit for that.

Tape Hair Extension Colours

Finding the right shade is everything. Our invisible tapes are available across a wide range of tape hair extension colours, from natural solids to multi-tonal blends like balayage tape extensions and ombré.

Not sure which shade suits you? Our free colour matching service takes the guesswork out of it. Just get in touch and our team will help you find your perfect match.

Application, Care & Lifespan

Professional Application

Invisible tape extensions should always be fitted and removed by a qualified hair extensionist using the professional tape in method. A full head typically takes under two hours. Your stylist will need to reposition them every 6-8 weeks using replacement tape tabs, and removal is quick and damage-free with our tape remover.

How Long Do Tape Extensions Last?

With the right care, Remy Royale invisible tapes last 6 to 12 months. That's significantly longer than standard tape extensions (3-6 months), thanks to the double drawn, premium quality hair. Between tape extension reapplication appointments, it's normal to wear them continuously.

Caring for Your Invisible Tapes

Wash with sulphate-free shampoo and alcohol-free conditioner
Always apply heat protection spray before styling
Use a detangling brush designed for extensions, and brush gently from the ends up
Tie hair in a loose braid or low ponytail for sleeping
Avoid chlorine and salt water where possible, as they can affect the adhesive bond

FAQ's

How long do invisible tape in hair extensions last?

With proper care, our Remy Royale invisible tape extensions last 6 to 12 months. They'll need repositioning by your stylist every 6 to 8 weeks with fresh adhesive tabs. Using the right products (sulphate-free shampoo, no heavy oils near the bonds) makes a real difference to how long tape extensions last.

What's the difference between invisible tape and regular tape extensions?

With regular tape extensions, the adhesive tab is exposed where the weft meets your hair. Invisible tapes have hair strands that extend all the way up to the tab, covering the adhesive completely. This makes them the most discreet tape option in our range, as the join is virtually hidden once they're blended into your natural hair.

What are invisible tape extensions?

Invisible tape extensions are a premium style of adhesive hair extensions where the hair covers the adhesive tab for a completely seamless finish. They're part of our AAAAA grade Remy Royale collection, meaning they're double drawn (same thickness from root to tip) and made from 100% cuticle-correct human hair.

How are invisible tape extensions applied?

Invisible tapes are applied by a professional hair extensionist who sandwiches a thin section of your natural hair between two adhesive wefts. The process usually takes under two hours for a full head. We always recommend having them fitted by a specialist to get the best placement and avoid any damage.

What are the most invisible hair extensions?

Within the tape extension family, invisible tapes are the most discreet option available. The hair-covered adhesive tab means there's no visible join between the extension and your natural hair. For other extension types, nano bond extensions are also extremely discreet, particularly if you prefer wearing your hair up. The best choice depends on your styling habits and hair type.
