Step 1
Use natural oil for zero damage.
To get rid of tape in hair extensions, the popular way many people apply is to use a kind of remover. If you don’t have any remover, you can do it the natural way by using hair oils as an alternative. Instead of using chemically based products, you may opt for natural oils which are healthy for your strands. You may use any of these: coconut oil, olive oil, almond oil or baby oil. Apply it at the roots and let it sit for at least 15 minutes to let the oil seep through the bonds. The oil breaks the tape bonds which helps you to easily detach the tape wefts from your mane. However, using oil could take longer to entirely remove the product and all residues rather than using a regular remover. It takes about an hour to complete the removal process.
