Tape-in hair extensions are strands of hair on a few centimetres long, transparent and light tape, which are glued to the natural hair close to the root. The name of the treatment "sandwich method" best reflects the essence of the way it goes into your hair. Either side of the strands of natural hair, tape strips are inserted. Thanks to a thin, discrete tape, the connection points are invisible and the hair looks very natural.
