Anyone ever used Vapon Tapes like Lace FX?

[smoka123]

Hi there,

anyone of you ever used or is using vapon tapes (lace fx / topstick) whatever. Are they good ?

 

[cottonReville]

LaceFX was my favorite tape...

 

[smoka123]

Why "was" ??

 

[Cruise21]

Topstick is good tape for a shorter hold or even daily wear because it's not as sticky or powerful as something like Supertape. Also you can buy it easily from many different places or sites.

Developed an allergy to tape.

Bought Lace FX and Topstick Plus.
Made a patch test, after 24 h no problems. Seems to be good

Lace fx only lasted 6 days for me

So jealous when I read something negative such as "only" last 6 days. The best I get is a week, no matter what.... Even with antipersprint, maxhold sport, and quality long hold tapes..... oily scalp

Likely why people believe I'm 5 to 10 years younger than I am.

Since I switched to Ghost bond I get 3 weeks, lol

I'd give anything to get 2 weeks.... As you all know, no matter how careful you are, the more you remove and install.... the more you...lose hair... affecting density at the hairline and risk damaging the base....

Wow, must me the climate in Florida. I live in the north east. Plus you mentioned oily skin, luckily I don't have that. Btw, saw your tip on jojoba oil...tried it. It seams to add good shine. How often do you put it on?

Its my chemistry, not location. I'm in New York about as much as Fl and it's all the same.

Pretty much only when it starts to get dry. It's very easy to overdo things with hair systems, and make it greasy or weighted down. Always dampen the hair 1st, towel dry, and apply a small amount....

By the 2 week mark, my tape turns into a
goo-ey mess. So, I re-install every week. I wish I could get 2 weeks from a product (without it feeling nasty).

Which Ghostbond, how many layers, and do you go full bond or just do the perimeter, or whatnot?

Hmmm got this on for 5 days now. It´s a bit itching I don´t know how it looks under the system... But I don´t think I would use tapes on poly again. Why ? If you buy it on "rolls" it so f*****g hard to put the paper off the tape. I was sweating like sh*t on my install because it was so hard. Then you can easily feel the edges around your head. They are not "slim" enough. OK maybe some are but I don´t know whether my skin can handle them.
I use this now until it´s gone and afterwards just extreme hold or whatever.

It was a f*****g mess cleaning this up. It was rock hard tied together with the system. I sprayed a lot of Isopro and C22 on it. Never seen it before with tapes.
