Can I Shower, Swim, Exercise, or Use a Sauna While Wearing SUPERTAPE®?

Life Doesn't Stop After Your Hair System Is Attached

Hair replacement should fit naturally into your lifestyle.

Whether you're heading to the gym, spending the afternoon at the pool, enjoying a hot shower, or relaxing in a sauna, it's natural to wonder how those activities affect your hair system tape.

The good news is that SUPERTAPE® was developed for dependable extended wear, including the demands of many active lifestyles.

Like all adhesives, however, environmental conditions and individual body chemistry can influence overall performance.

Showering

Normal showering is part of everyday life and is compatible with properly applied hair system tape.

Many wearers find that once the adhesive has had sufficient time to develop a strong bond, routine showering has little effect on day-to-day performance.

Using shampoos and hair care products as directed—and avoiding unnecessary rubbing of the attachment area—can help maintain the bond.

Swimming

Many people enjoy swimming while wearing hair systems.

Fresh water and salt water generally present little difficulty for a properly attached system.

After swimming, it's a good idea to rinse away chlorine or salt and allow the hair system to dry naturally before performing any maintenance.

Exercise

Running.

Cycling.

Weight training.

Sports.

An active lifestyle naturally increases body heat and perspiration.

SUPERTAPE® was designed to provide dependable performance for many active wearers, but increased perspiration may influence how long the adhesive lasts for some individuals.

Every person's skin chemistry responds differently to exercise.

Saunas and High Heat

Saunas expose both the adhesive and the skin to prolonged heat.

While many wearers continue their normal routines without difficulty, repeated exposure to high temperatures may shorten wear time for some individuals.

If you frequently use saunas or steam rooms, you may find that more frequent maintenance provides the most consistent results.

Every Wearer Is Different

No two people have exactly the same experience.

Skin chemistry...

Climate...

Activity level...

Maintenance routine...

All contribute to adhesive performance.

The goal isn't simply achieving the longest possible wear time.

It's developing a routine that consistently works well for your lifestyle.

Tips for Active Wearers

✓ Allow the adhesive adequate time to develop its bond before strenuous activity.

✓ Prepare the scalp thoroughly before application.

✓ Follow a regular maintenance schedule.

✓ Replace tape when performance begins to change rather than waiting for complete failure.

✓ Pay attention to your own experience and adjust your routine accordingly.

The Bottom Line

SUPERTAPE® was developed for people who want to live life—not plan their lives around their hair system.

Whether your day includes work, the gym, swimming, travel, or time outdoors, proper preparation, thoughtful maintenance, and understanding your own skin chemistry will help you achieve the most dependable results.

Because confidence isn't just about how your hair system looks.

It's about trusting it to keep up with your life.
