Stay Active Without Sacrificing Style: How Coveted Tape Extensions Are Transforming Workouts for Women

Non-Slip, Sweat-Proof TechnologyThe Coveted Tape extensions feature advanced technology that keeps your hair secure, even during intense workouts. Traditional extensions often loosen or tangle during physical activity, but Covet & Mane's tape-in wefts are designed to stay in place whether you're lifting weights, running a marathon, or flowing through a hot yoga session. "The Coveted Tape transformed my workflow," says stylist Lilybeth Vargas. For athletes, that means less time in the chair and more time focused on training, without worrying about slippage. 

Durability for High-Impact Activities

From CrossFit to swimming, these extensions are built tough. Water-resistant and free from silicone, the extensions prevent frizz and breakage, even in wet conditions. Stylist Justin McKay notes, "The non-slip tape holds up even after hours of training." Athletes can enjoy long-lasting, luscious hair without compromising on quality or durability.

Comfort for Long-Term Wear

Athletes also need comfort, and Coveted Tape delivers just that. The lightweight wefts lie flat, offering a natural look that’s easy to wear under helmets, hats, or swim caps. Founder Dafina Smith explains, "This product marries comfort with creative freedom," ensuring athletes can train hard without discomfort.

Styling Ideas for Athletes

The Effortless Ponytail

One of the easiest and most practical styles for athletes is the classic ponytail. With Coveted Tape, you can achieve a sleek, high ponytail that stays in place throughout your workout, whether you’re hitting the gym or heading out for a run. The invisible tape ensures the extensions blend seamlessly with your natural hair, giving you a fuller, more voluminous ponytail without any noticeable wefts.

The Half-Up, Half-Down Style

For days when you’re not breaking a sweat but still want an active, effortless look, try the half-up, half-down hairstyle. This versatile style allows you to keep hair out of your face while showing off your long, luscious locks. Thanks to the flat lay of Coveted Tape, this look is smooth and polished, perfect for a day that transitions from workout to weekend brunch.

Braids for Function and Style

Braids are not only stylish but practical for athletes. Whether you’re doing a tight French braid for a high-intensity workout or a looser braid for more casual activity, the flexibility of Coveted Tape ensures your extensions can handle any look. The wefts won’t slip or show, giving you the freedom to experiment with different braiding styles.

Maintenance Tips for Active Lifestyles

Maintaining your Coveted Tape extensions is simple, even if you live a highly active lifestyle. Here are a few tips to keep them looking flawless:

WASHING

Wash your hair regularly, but be gentle with your extensions, using sulfate-free shampoos and conditioners. Make sure to focus on your scalp and let the product rinse down to the extensions without scrubbing too much on the wefts.


DRYING & STYLING

After workouts, gently pat your hair dry with a towel. Avoid rubbing, as this can cause tangling. When blow-drying, use a cool setting and avoid direct heat on the tape.


SWIMMING & EXERCISING

If you swim regularly, consider wearing a swim cap to protect your extensions from chlorine or saltwater. After swimming, rinse your hair immediately to avoid buildup that could loosen the tape over time.


AVOIDING PRODUCTS

Steer clear of oily or heavy styling products near the roots where the extensions are taped, as this could cause slippage. Stick to lightweight, water-based styling products for the best results.
