The Extreme Hold Extenda-Bond Plus Bonding Strips with holes (Size: 1 1/2″ x 12″, Blue – 10Pcs) are specially designed adhesive strips used for securing hair systems like lace wigs, toupees, and hairpieces. They are built to provide a long-lasting, breathable, and comfortable hold. Here’s a detailed breakdown of the product:

Key Features:

1. Maximum Wear (4+ Weeks):
   • The Extenda-Bond Plus tape offers a long-term hold that can last for more than 4 weeks, making it ideal for extended wear.
   • This makes it suitable for users who want a strong and durable bond without the need for frequent reapplication.
2. Breathable Design:
   • The bonding strips have small holes that allow for ventilation, making the tape breathable and preventing heat or moisture buildup under the hair system.
   • This feature ensures the scalp remains comfortable and healthy even during long wear.
3. Semi-Dull Finish:
   • The tape has a semi-dull finish, which helps it remain virtually invisible under lace wigs or hairpieces, providing a seamless and natural look.
4. Skin-Safe and Gentle:
   • The tape is formulated to be skin-safe, meaning it’s gentle on the skin and reduces the risk of irritation or allergic reactions, even during extended use.
5. Stretchy Carrier:
   • The tape is designed with a stretchy carrier, allowing it to move with the skin. This flexibility enhances comfort, especially for long wear periods, and helps maintain a secure bond even during active movements.
6. 10 Pieces per Pack:
   • Each pack contains 10 strips (1 1/2″ x 12″), offering enough material for multiple applications or complete coverage of larger hair systems.

Storage Guidelines:

To maintain the integrity and adhesive strength of the Extenda-Bond Plus strips, it’s important to store them properly:

• Keep away from heat, humidity, and light to prevent the adhesive from degrading.
• Store in a well-ventilated, cool, dark, and dry environment at room temperature (60-80°F).
• Seal bags or clamshells completely to protect the adhesive from exposure to air.
• When stored correctly, the tapes can have a shelf life of up to one year.

Application Instructions:

1. Prep for Install:

• Shampoo the hair system and your natural hair with a Bond Breaker Shampoo and allow them to dry.
• Use 99% alcohol to clean the scalp and the base of the hair system. This step helps to remove oils and residue, promoting optimal adhesion. Allow the alcohol to fully evaporate before proceeding.
• Apply a Scalp Protector or Max Hold Sport to the scalp to enhance the tape’s bond strength and reduce the chance of irritation.

2. Apply the Tape:

• Peel off the blue liner (which is scored down the middle) and place the adhesive side of the tape onto the hair system. Avoid touching the adhesive directly to maintain its stickiness.
• Position the tape strips where needed on the hair system. If you need to cover the full perimeter, repeat the process until the desired areas are covered.

3. Position on Scalp:

• When ready to attach the system to the scalp, peel off the remaining white liner to expose the adhesive.
• To ease application and make positioning the hair system more accurate, spray Just-Rite Positioning Spray over the adhesive. The more you spray, the longer you’ll have to adjust the unit before the adhesive bonds fully.
• Carefully press the hair system onto the scalp. Ensure you don’t shift the system during this step, as it could disrupt the bond.

Ideal For:

• Long-Term Wearers: Perfect for those who require an extended bond (up to 4+ weeks) with minimal maintenance.
• Active Lifestyles: With its breathable design, flexibility, and strong hold, this tape is great for users with active or outdoor lifestyles, ensuring the hairpiece stays in place even with sweat or heat.
• Comfort Seekers: The combination of breathability and a stretchy carrier makes this tape particularly comfortable for prolonged use.
