Application Tips & Best Practices

• Wait 24 Hours Before Exposure to Moisture: To ensure a secure bond, avoid showering, exercising, or swimming for 24 hours after installation.
• Use Scalp Protector for Early Water Exposure: For clients requiring immediate water exposure, we recommend Max Hold Sport to enhance initial adhesion strength.
• Avoid Adjusting Tape Once Set: If repositioning is necessary after application, always use a new strip. Reusing will weaken the adhesive due to skin-cell transfer.
• Ideal for Daily Wear & Long-Term Use: Suitable for professionals seeking durability and clients who prefer fewer reapplications.
