When it comes to hair system tapes, few products have earned the reputation and loyal following of Ultra Hold Tape™.
Trusted by stylists and wearers around the world, Ultra Hold Tape™ has become one of the most popular maximum wear tapes in the industry thanks to its exceptional hold, comfortable wear, and dependable performance.
Whether you’re a seasoned professional or new to hair systems, Ultra Hold Tape™ offers the security and confidence needed for long-lasting results.
What is Ultra Hold Tape™?
Ultra Hold Tape™ is one of the strongest and longest-lasting maximum wear hair system tapes available. Designed to provide a secure bond for 2–4+ weeks, it is built with a stretchy carrier that provides comfort, simplifies application, and helps improve overall hold times.
Ultra Hold Tape™ is semi-dull for a natural appearance, skin-safe, and compatible with all hair system base types.
What Makes Ultra Hold Tape™ Stand Out?
- Strong, Long-Lasting Hold: Ultra Hold Tape™ can provide a secure bond for up to 2-4+ weeks. Its dependable performance makes it one of the best extended wear hair system tapes in the industry.
- Stretchy Carrier for Greater Comfort: Ultra Hold Tape™ is built on a stretchy carrier that conforms comfortably to the scalp. This flexible design not only improves comfort for the wearer but also makes the tape easier for stylists to position and apply accurately.
- Skin-Safe Ultra Hold Tape™ is designed to be skin-safe, helping wearers enjoy a secure hold with greater peace of mind.

For the best all-around hair system wear experience, pair Ultra Hold Tape with:
- Max Hold Sport™ or Scalp Protector™: Creates a protective barrier on the scalp that can help improve hold times while shielding against sweat, oils, and humidity.
