How Many Packs of Tape Hair Extensions do you Need? | Buying Guide
In this video I'll break how how many packs of tape in hair extensions I bought for myself and give you some things to look for when purchasing tape in hair extensions for yourself. When buying tape in hair extensions for yourself for the first time it can be intimidating, you're probably asking yourself how many packs do I need, how many grams, or how many pieces? I am going to break it all down and take you through my thought process when shopping for tapes.
The tape in hair extensions I bought are from Glam Seamless but I will also show you some other brand options like Bellami and Beauty Works hair extensions as well. Not to mention the price point between the different tape styles like the remy style vs the invisi tape in hair extensions.

Hey Janna,
Thanks for the informative video. I am talking to my friend who is going to do them for me for the first time. Any other tips for a newbie.
– Janna
P.S. I looked below the video and realized that we have the same name!
*Pause* can we just take a moment for some appreciation and gratitude for Janna (first time here girl) and how much time, dedication and love she puts into helping us with our journeys into the extension world? For me as a mom of 3 little boys and a DSP caring for the disabled- i bust my butt and give my all to everyone around myself and give my entire heart and I just feel like for Christmas, it would be so awesome to just gift myself a nice (new) experience with tape in extensions to color match my blonde hair (now beach blonde). I have used clips and dark ones but i haven’t bought myself something reusable and feel good for years. I believe with all my hard work- it’s finally that time. <3 I just want to give this woman love and appreciation for a little direction and assurance on my journey finding my extensions of choice and length ( I believe 22'' is beautiful) and girl...there are SOOO many brands, sizes, lengths, costs, color match, like everything that goes into it and available to choose from- UGH! It's a struggle girl. Trust me, you are so appreciated<3
omg Cynthia thank you so much for this lovely comment you made my day :’). Did you end up getting yourself tape ins for Christmas?
I found your videos very informative. I just wanted to comment about my own experience since I am wearing tape ins for several years now. I bought Glam Seamless 2 years ago, and I (and my hairdresser too) was amazed by the quality and the longevity. But I placed 2 new orders last year and I was really disappointed : the hair quality has decreased a lot and the hair on the tape ins is much thiner. Also when I placed 600$ order, my card was charged several times! In the end, things were figured out but it was quite stressful… Following those disappointing orders, I ordered some Bellami Pro tape ins, and to my opinion, the quality is far more superior (the prices too… unfortunately!).
Your video is the BEST one I’ve found. Definitely made me get them! So educated!
great video!
What are the pieces? my stylist recommended 5 packs for my head but then Im looking on websites where it talks about 60 pieces and packs. What’s the difference or are the same thing?
Did they say how many grams are in a pack?
What did you think of the extensions after wearing them? How was the quality. Looking to purchase good quality hair extensions
I actually just started working with a new hair brand called West Label and I like their quality more, I recommend checking them out ☺ I spoke about them in my most recent video
a really good way of knowing how many pieces you need is, if you ever wore clip ins… how many wefts did you use? and how many clips did each weft have? simply count the number of clips of the wefts you used and that’s the amount of pieces you would need. So for me, I used foxy locks clip ins forever 160g… I have very fine hair so I only used half of them that it came with. It added up to 22 sandwiches (44 pieces) since the number of clips I used added up to 11 when I used clip ins. Good luck!
Do you do you own install? Or do you have someone install them for you?
I keep running into the issue of so many places not selling to the public, like they require a hair dressing license number and stuff.
I’m so glad I discovered you thank you for the information! I’m not a professional and I’m doing it myself. I had brain surgery and They shaved my bangs off and hair along the side of my face and the extensions are Lifesavers! I’m super super excited to have discovered the invisi tape ins. I just ordered some for my crown 2 sample packs, they are so super super cheap and I can’t believe I had never heard of this kind with the hair over the Shiny tape part! Thank you again you’re so fun to watch!
Your videos are so entertaining
Glad I found this. I’m trying to figure it out myself as want them
Excellent video, thank you so much for all the info!
