Nauhavärjäys

Nauhavärjäys, also known as tape-in hair extensions, is a method of adding length and volume to natural hair using wefts of hair attached to a thin, adhesive strip. These wefts are typically about one to two inches wide and are designed to be applied seamlessly to the client's natural hair. The process involves sectioning the natural hair and then sandwiching it between two wefts of the extension hair, with the adhesive strips sticking to each other. This creates a secure and comfortable bond that lies flat against the scalp.

The application of nauhavärjäys is relatively quick compared to some other extension methods, often taking around an hour to complete. The adhesive used is typically a medical-grade tape that is strong yet gentle on the hair. Maintenance involves carefully brushing the hair to avoid pulling on the extensions and scheduling regular salon appointments for reapplication. As the natural hair grows out, the extensions will also move downwards, so they need to be removed, the adhesive replaced, and then re-taped further up the hair shaft.

Nauhavärjäys is a popular choice for those seeking a non-damaging and natural-looking hair enhancement. The wefts are lightweight and blend well with natural hair, allowing for various styling options. When properly applied and maintained, these extensions can last for several weeks to a few months. Removal is typically done using a special solvent that breaks down the adhesive, ensuring minimal stress on the natural hair.
