APPLICATION
Before we get to styling, it’s important to consider the position the tapes are applied in your hair. If you’re big on up-dos or ponytails are your go to style, let your hairdresser know! This will ensure your extensions are applied in a technique best suited for up do’s and makes all the difference when styling your locks.
PLACEMENT
Our top tip on achieving a seamless ponytail with tape in extensions all comes down to placement! To ensure the tapes are undetectable, you’re going to want to opt for a medium to low ponytail. This is so that the tape tabs lay flat against your head and are completely undetectable.

When styling your pony, the aim of the game is to get those tape tabs as flat against the head as possible. Our favourite way to style a pony with tape hair extensions is in this super pretty twisted look. It’s so stunning and really easy to achieve, too!
Simply secure your locks into a low or medium ponytail, leaving two sections out from either front side of your hair. Take one section and wrap around the base of your ponytail, bobby pin in place and repeat on the other side. These pieces not only conceal your hair elastic, but also easily hide any tapes that are showing! If so, use your fingers to carefully pull and manoeuvre the hair to cover the tape tabs. And you’re done! A completely seamless ponytail with tape hair extensions!
