CLIP-IN RANGE BY MARKET TIER
Three demand tiers. Three different volume and margin profiles.
Build a clip-in programme around what actually sells: proven full-set classics, fast-rising seamless constructions, and low-competition halo-wire pieces. Each tier uses the same 100% Remy human hair base; the difference is construction, wearer profile and specification.
CLASSIC BESTSELLERS
Classic Sandwich Tape-In Wefts
The salon standard and highest-volume format. Two adhesive panels sandwich a fine section of natural hair for a flat, secure hold. This is the first tape-in product most stylists learn and the safest volume driver for wholesale programmes.
Includes
Classic PU tape wefts · 4 cm standard width · 20/40/60 pcs pack
Typical spec
14–24 in · 2.5–3.5 g per piece · 4 cm panel width · medical-grade acrylic adhesive
Weight guidance
Fine hair 40–50 pcs; medium hair 50–60 pcs; thick hair 60–80 pcs for full coverage
Why stock it
Largest salon audience, predictable reorder cycle, easiest to train stylists on
The fastest-growing segment as clients demand a flatter root profile and longer wear cycles. Ultra-thin PU or matte-finish bases reduce visible seams, while re-tapeable panels let salons refresh the adhesive and reuse the hair.
A smaller but high-margin segment covering fashion balayage, root-to-tip ombre, low-adhesive sensitive-scalp panels and starter kits for new wearers. These products differentiate a range beyond classic solid colours.
Choose the product in the same order your customer does.
Start with the natural-hair profile and desired coverage, then choose adhesive profile, piece count and grams. This prevents a buyer from treating every tape-in pack as the same product.
01 · NATURAL HAIR
Match the wearer profile
Fine hair usually needs lighter, fewer pieces and gentler adhesive; medium and thick hair need more pieces and stronger hold for a lasting blend.
02 · DESIRED COVERAGE
Choose pack size by coverage
Decide whether the customer needs a half-head refresh, standard full-head coverage or extra density before locking piece count.
03 · FINISHED PRODUCT
Lock construction and specification
Approve the tape type, piece count, grams per piece, length, colour, adhesive system and packaging together as one repeatable product.

PRIMARY COLOUR SYSTEM
DS HAIR Colour Chart 2
Screen colour is for initial selection only. Final shade approval should use a physical colour ring or confirmed sample. Where the source chart has no published shade code, Ref numbers are temporary website identifiers only.

EVALUATION POINTS
What your team should verify.
Use a representative sample to turn visual impressions into an approved, repeatable product reference.
01
Base & adhesive
Review PU thickness, base colour/translucency, adhesive tack, residue and wash-cycle performance.
02
Hair retention
Test shedding before and after controlled washing, styling and tape replacement cycles.
03
Panel consistency
Confirm every panel width, hair weight and end density across the pack.
04
Comfort & removal
Check scalp tension during wear and clean removal with the recommended solvent.
CONSTRUCTION KNOWLEDGE
Classic sandwich and invisible tape are two different product constructions.
Invisible and classic are construction choices, not automatic quality grades. The correct decision depends on the target wearer, adhesive performance and approved physical sample.
Decision point
Classic PU Sandwich Tape
Invisible Ultra-Thin Tape
Top construction
Standard PU base with exposed adhesive
Thinner, often translucent or colour-matched base
Profile at the root
Slightly thicker seam; strong hold
Designed to sit flatter with less visible edge
Key development risk
Adhesive strength, residue control and hair retention
Base translucency, edge lift and wash-cycle durability
Colour consideration
Base colour must blend with hair shade
Base should be translucent or closely matched to scalp
What a buyer must approve
Physical panel sample plus adhesive hold test
Physical panel sample plus root-seam visibility test
TAPE-IN FORMATS
Four adhesive profiles—four different buying briefs.
Select the tape profile by wearer density, target result and maintenance model. Do not use piece count as a shortcut for hold, comfort or quality.

THE DS HAIR DIFFERENCE
A structured sourcing process, not an unsupported quality claim.
We compare the way a project is managed—not make unverified statements about another supplier’s hair.
Practical guidance for salons, distributors and private-label teams. Product-specific claims still require sample approval.
01
What types of human hair tape-ins are available?
The range can be developed as classic sandwich panels, invisible ultra-thin panels, re-tapeable panels, sensitive-scalp panels or fashion colour/ombre panels. Each type serves a different wearer profile and salon workflow.
02
How many tape-in pieces does a client need?
Fine hair may need 40–50 pieces for a full look, medium hair 50–60 pieces and thick hair 60–80 pieces. Two pieces form one sandwich, so a 40-piece pack creates 20 sandwiches.
03
How do classic and invisible tape-ins differ?
Classic tape-ins use a standard PU base with medical-grade adhesive. Invisible tape-ins use a thinner, often translucent base to reduce the visible seam at the root. Hold, residue and re-tapeability must be tested for each.
04
What controls a reliable reorder?
Keep one approved sample and one written specification covering panel width, grams per piece, adhesive type, base colour, hair details, colour reference, tolerances, packaging and QC checkpoints.
05
Can tape-in hair be reused?
Yes, if the panels are designed as re-tapeable. Stylists remove the panels, clean residue and apply new adhesive tabs. Re-tapeable panels can extend the useful life of the hair and create recurring sales of replacement tape.
06
What should a buyer check before approving colour?
Match the base/root colour to the client’s natural hair and confirm any balayage or ombre transition against a physical reference. Screen colours are not reliable for final approval.
RELATED DEVELOPMENT DIRECTIONS
Build a coherent extension range.
These are enquiry pathways, not live-stock listings. Each product requires its own specification and sample reference.
No. This product family is identified by its product name and confirmed specification: classic, invisible, re-tapeable or colour/ombre tape-in, followed by the panel format, length, grams, colour and packaging.
Can I request a sample pack?
Yes. Share the preferred tape type, piece count, length, target grams per piece, colour direction and any adhesive requirements. Sample feasibility, cost and timing are confirmed against that brief.
Does 40 pcs/pack define the full product?
No. The full specification also needs the construction, panel width, grams per piece, adhesive system, length, texture, colour reference and repeat-order tolerances.
Can DS HAIR develop invisible or re-tapeable tape-ins?
Yes. State the target base thickness, transparency level, adhesive strength and whether replacement tape tabs are required so the construction can be evaluated.
Are all lengths and weights shown ready to order?
No. They are buying-request options for preparing a brief. A length and gram value is not confirmed until it is tied to the chosen product type, panel spec, hair specification and written quotation.
Can I request private-label packaging?
Yes. Label, backing card, storage box and retail-pack requirements can be reviewed with the product brief. Feasibility and minimum quantities are confirmed separately.
