TransTape After-Care

TransTape After-Care

We've learned about applying and removing TransTape, but we haven't gone into a lot of detail about after-care. After-care can mean applying healing salve but it can also mean letting your mind rest along with your skin. And if you're new to TransTape, this is especially important.

TransTape and Top Surgery

Some people have been wondering if using TransTape to bind can lead to top surgery complications. I'm definitely not a Doctor, but I do know that there are countless TransTape users who have gone on to have extremely successful top surgeries, free of any TransTape related complications.

When Should I Remove My Tape?

The tape is on but now its been a day or two and you're not sure whether or not you should remove it. I totally get it and I've been there! When you're still getting used to wearing TransTape, it can be difficult to determine whether or not it's ready to come off. And that's why I am here to help!

Rounding Corners and TransTape Scissors!

If you've been learning about TransTape or are already a user, you may have come across the very popular suggestion of rounding your corners! Rounding your corners is important to your application and will help you get the most out of it. And you can't do that without a nice pair of scissors, which TransTape offers now!

Help: TransTape and Body Hair

Whether you're binding, tucking or packing, you may be wondering if you need to get rid of your body hair first. It's entirely up to the user whether or not they keep their hair, but if you decide to trim it you may benefit from an overall more comfortable application, better support and a more pleasant removal process.

TransTape Vs. The Elements

TransTape is some pretty amazing stuff. Personally, I think being waterproof is one of the best features and helps make it adventure proof for even the most extreme travelers. Whether you're hanging out in a desert for fun, singing in the rain or swimming in crystal clear water, TransTape has you covered for days at a time.

Tips: Prepare for Taping!

In theory it seems easy enough to grab your tape and slap it on, but we both know it's not always so simple! Whether we're having a busy day, a difficult day or just a day where we aren't feeling ourselves, preparing for our application can go a long way for some of us. Preparing for application can help alleviate pressure, stress and lead to a better experience from start to finish.
