What a 1 cm Tab Solves
- 01Less weight per tab Each piece carries less hair than a 2.5 g standard tape, so fine hair holds it without strain.
- 02Made for partings A 1 cm tab fits between partings and around the face where a 4 cm tab would show.
- 03Mix with standard tapes Use minis at the parting and standards underneath, in the same shades.

How Salons Use Mini Tapes
- Place minis along the parting and around the face where standard tapes would show
- Use standard tapes in the lower rows for length and volume
- Fill thinning areas at the crown for clients who want a fuller top
Who Stocks Mini Tape-in Extensions
Extension brands and salons that already offer standard tape-ins add minis so they can treat clients with fine or thinning hair at the parting without changing method.
Colors
Mini tapes come in the same shades as our standard tape-ins, so minis at the parting and standard tapes underneath blend as one color.
Aftercare Tips for Clients
- Brush gently around the hairline and parting, holding the hair just above the small tabs so they are not pulled
- Keep heavy oils and conditioner away from the face line, where minis sit closest to the skin
- Other care is the same as our standard tape-ins: wait 48 hours before the first wash and move up every 6 to 8 weeks

Questions About Mini Tape-in Extensions
Are mini tapes reusable?
Yes, 2 to 3 times. Stylists re-tape them with replacement tape cut to the 1 cm tab, which takes longer per piece than a standard tab because there are four times as many.
Do you offer mini tapes in textures other than straight?
Straight is standard. Body wave can be made on request.
How many mini tape packs does one client need?
Most salons use minis only along the parting and hairline, with standard tape-ins underneath. A full head of minis alone takes more pieces than standard tapes, because each tab holds less hair; tell us the target weight and we'll work out the pack count.
