What to expect

Tape in weft extensions blend two popular methods. At The Refinery Hair Lounge, we use long, thin wefts of premium human hair with a flat tape edge.

Like a classic weft, each row adds a lot of hair at once. However, there are no beads or thread. Instead, the tape holds each row close to your head, so it lies flat and feels light.

This method works well if you want serious fullness without a long install. Plus, it’s a nice fit for fine hair, since the weight spreads out across the whole row.

At move-ups, we remove the wefts, re-tape them, and place them back near your roots. As a result, you can often reuse the same hair for several rounds. See how it compares with every other method in our hair extensions guide.

At your consult, we’ll match your shade and plan how many rows you need. The Refinery has salons in Middletown and Shelbyville, KY, serving Louisville, Shelby County, and nearby communities.
