Step-by-Step Instructions

warning IMPORTANT! Proper scalp preparation is essential to achieving strong hair replacement bonding! Before you attach your hair system with toupee tape or adhesive, it is absolutely vital that you first clean and prepare your scalp thoroughly.

step one

Step One

Applying tape to the base

Your first step is to apply the toupee tape to the under part of the base of the hair system. Start by finding a contour that matches the shape of the outer edge of your base. If there isn't a contour that matches, simply cut a strip from an adhesive roll to fit.

Peel back the split liner from the hairpiece tape.

When applying the tape, place it as close to the outer edge as possible without protruding past the edge of your system. Press the tape down firmly.

Once the tape has been applied to the base, peel the backing off the strips that will attach to your scalp.

Step Two

Place onto head

Next, slowly and carefully place the unit onto your head. We highly recommend spraying an alcohol-based formula, like our Adjust-A-Bond, onto the scalp first. This will prevent the toupee adhesive from immediately sticking to the skin and provide a few minutes of drying so you can adjust the hair system into exactly the right place.

Once the unit is on your head, adjust it into place and carefully apply pressure to all the tape areas. Now your hair system is secure, bonded with hairpiece tape and ready to wear for styling.
