01

Classic Flat PU Tab

PU material, tab dimensions, thickness, flexibility, surface smoothness, color, and edge finishing are controlled according to the approved Classic Tape-In specification.

02

Even Hair Distribution

Hair weight, strand alignment, PU coverage, and distribution across each tab are coordinated to support consistent pieces and balanced professional installation.

03

Controlled Adhesive Compatibility

Tape dimensions, thickness, tack level, liner release, edge alignment, and compatibility with the selected PU surface can be confirmed through sample evaluation.

04

Clean PU Surface and Edges

Surface preparation, repeated combing, PU finishing, and edge control help reduce trapped air, uneven areas, whitening, cracking, and dry-looking adhesive zones.

05

Replaceable Tape for Reinstallation

When the hair and PU tabs remain in suitable condition, adhesive residue can be removed and compatible replacement tape applied for professional reinstallation.

06

OEM, ODM, and Private Label Development

Hair quality, lengths, textures, colors, long-hair ratios, tab dimensions, piece weights, tape specifications, labels, and packaging can be developed through sample confirmation.

Product Overview

Product Construction & Key Details

Classic Tape-In Hair Extensions use standard-width polyurethane (PU) tabs and replaceable double-sided tape for professional sandwich installation. Also known as Traditional Tape-In Hair Extensions, this format provides a conventional attachment structure for hair brands, distributors and salon collections.

01

Epoche develops the PU tab, hair distribution and adhesive specification as one coordinated product. Buyers can customize the hair quality, tab dimensions, finished weight and colors around their collection requirements. We confirm the final construction through sample development before bulk production.

02

Standard-Width PU Tab Construction

The Classic format uses a continuous PU tab to hold the hair across the attachment area. Tab width, thickness, softness and hair distribution together define the finished panel. These details affect its profile and handling during professional application.

During production, we control the PU surface and hair placement against the approved sample. Combing and preparation help reduce trapped air within the PU area. We also inspect bubbles, whitening, surface flatness and edge finishing to support consistent workmanship across repeat orders.

03

Professional Sandwich Installation

A trained stylist places a section of natural hair between two adhesive tabs near the roots. The paired tabs form a tape sandwich using double-sided adhesive tape. Standard application does not require heat.

Correct sectioning, alignment and adhesive contact remain important for the finished attachment. The stylist should plan placement around the natural hair and selected product specification. Professional fitting also allows the installer to assess the section size and attachment weight together.

View Full Product Details

Replaceable Tape and Professional Maintenance

The adhesive tape can be replaced during professional repositioning. First, the stylist uses a compatible remover to release the attachment. They then clean the tabs and assess the condition of both the hair and PU before applying fresh tape.

Reuse depends on the actual product condition, adhesive compatibility and maintenance. Keep oils, conditioner and masks away from the tape bonds. After washing, dry the attachment area and avoid pulling or brushing aggressively near the tabs.

Classic Tape-In vs Slimline and Invisible

Classic Tape-In Hair Extensions use a conventional standard-width panel. By comparison, Slimline uses a narrower, elongated tab. Invisible Tape-In uses an injected construction that creates a more concealed outward surface.

These differences concern the attachment structure and visible finish. Buyers should compare actual samples when choosing a format for their collection. Explore the Tape-In Hair Extensions collection to review Epoche’s available constructions.

Care & Longevity

Preserve Quality, Structure and Appearance

Practical maintenance guidance helps preserve hair quality, protect the attachment area, maintain appearance and support longer service life.

Have Classic Tape-In Hair Extensions installed, maintained, removed, and repositioned by a trained professional.
Do not wash the hair immediately after installation; follow the setting time specified for the approved adhesive system.
Brush gently with a suitable extension brush while supporting the Tape-In attachment areas.
Begin brushing from the ends and work upward without pulling directly on the PU tabs or natural-hair sections.
View Complete Care Guide
Wash with lukewarm water and a gentle, extension-safe shampoo while keeping the hair directed downward.
Keep conditioner, oils, masks, serums, and heavy styling products away from the PU tabs and adhesive areas.
Rinse thoroughly to prevent product buildup around the attachment points.
Do not sleep with wet hair. Dry the roots, PU tabs, and surrounding attachment areas completely after washing.
Use heat protection on the hair lengths and keep heated tools away from the PU tabs and adhesive.
Avoid pulling, twisting, sharply folding, or brushing aggressively near the attachments.
Do not apply household glue, general-purpose adhesive, or unapproved replacement tape to the PU tabs.
Use a compatible professional remover and allow the adhesive to release before separating the Tape-In pieces.
Never pull the extensions from the natural hair while the adhesive remains bonded.
Remove adhesive residue gently without scraping, stretching, overheating, or damaging the PU surface.
Inspect the hair, PU tabs, edges, and attachment surfaces before applying replacement tape.
Do not reinstall pieces with cracked, whitened, distorted, separating, or excessively worn PU tabs.
Store removed pieces clean, dry, detangled, and arranged flat before reinstallation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Questions About This Product

What are Classic Tape-In Hair Extensions?

Classic Tape-In Hair Extensions are professional human hair extensions made with flat PU tabs and replaceable double-sided tape. They are commonly installed in pairs, with a section of natural hair positioned between an upper and lower piece to create a sandwich attachment.

How are Classic Tape-In Hair Extensions installed?

A trained professional sections the natural hair, places it between two aligned Tape-In pieces, and presses the tabs together using compatible tools. Section size, tab alignment, distance from the scalp, pressure, and weight distribution should follow the approved installation system.

What is the difference between Classic and Slimline Tape-In Hair Extensions?

Classic Tape-Ins use a conventional rectangular PU tab with a standard attachment width. Slimline Tape-Ins use a narrower top profile developed for smaller sections or more targeted placement. Tab dimensions, hair weight, adhesive area, and intended placement should be confirmed independently.

What is the difference between Classic and Invisible Tape-In Hair Extensions?

Classic Tape-Ins use a conventional flat PU tab with the hair attached along the tab structure. Invisible Tape-Ins use an injected or individually inserted hair construction developed to reduce the visible top edge. The two products differ in manufacturing method, top appearance, thickness, cost, and target application.

Can Classic Tape-In Hair Extensions be reused?

Yes. When the hair and PU tabs remain in suitable condition, the extensions can be professionally removed, cleaned, fitted with compatible replacement tape, and reinstalled. Reuse depends on hair quality, PU condition, adhesive removal, maintenance, and the approved tape system.

Can Classic Tape-In specifications and samples be customized?

Yes. Virgin Hair or Remy Hair, length, texture, color, long-hair ratio, PU-tab dimensions, hair weight per piece, piece count, tape dimensions, tack level, liner specifications, labels, and packaging can be customized. Samples can be evaluated before bulk production for PU quality, adhesive compatibility, bubble control, edge stability, weight consistency, color, and finished workmanship.
