   I bought this thinking this was different from other tapes that they are selling. It’s the same genric tape that everyone else is selling and we get it for 200. I bought this seeing the reviews thinking it would be different. So don’t bother buying this, buy the cheap one you see on Amazon. Everyone is buying from AliExpress and selling the same stuff

   This tape is sooooooo much better than Duck Tape and Gaffers tape for taping your breasts! Okay, “boobs”. There, I said it! I’ve tried everything I can as a sticky bra including actual sticky bras and nothing stays put like this tape!! The first time I wore it, I for it for 2 days straight (including overnight) and it stayed PERFECTLY. I could feel it kind of pulling a tad here and there and itching in a place or two but nothing that kept my attention too long; however, during day 2 and especially towards the end of the 2nd day it got so much worse. I had an idea that I might be blistering- I do that with BandAids and adhesive products (my husband warned me)- but it wasn’t hurting, just itching. I felt almost like I had dry skin. Then I could feel little bumps under the tape, so I knew I needed to remove it. Luckily it was bedtime, so my husband helped too. We used coconut oil as an article had suggested (and to make sure I didn’t rip open any blisters) but realized in subsequent uses that it is completely unnecessary. Just PULL THE TAPE SLOWLY. That’s it! All the pics of ripped skin from others, I’m POSITIVE is a result of them simply ripping the tape off too quickly. You cannot rip this tape off! I haven’t gotten any blisters again bc I don’t clean my skin before applying the tape now and I don’t wear it for days in a row anymore to avoid the blisters. It has worked amazingly! It is definitely waterproof and it curves and moves well with my body without creasing or slipping. It definitely isn’t stiff like Duck Tape and Gaffers Tape either and won’t pop off bc of sweat like they do. Try it! No more back fat either bc of our uncomfortable bras! You can probably also use it to tape your thighs and arms too (not that I am suggesting that, but I know they do sell expensive tape for that purpose). I love this tape!

   I don’t buy into the pseudoscience behind the way kinesiology tape “works” so I won’t comment on any perceived pain relief/increased range of motion.

   However, I needed a tape that would stick to my skin for two days and through showering to help keep some medicated pads on my foot, and this tape worked pretty well for that.

   The tape is very sticky and held tight to the sole of my foot for as long as I needed it to. By the second day, the edges were starting peel up but the rest of the tape was stuck firmly on my skin. It wasn’t so sticky that it hurt to remove but it definitely wasn’t going anywhere without me intentionally peeling it off.

   My main gripe with the tape is that it is really difficult to cleanly cut with scissors. Since you aren’t going to use an entire roll of tape at once, that’s not good. It’s almost like trying to cut duct tape but the good news is that once you get a cut started you can just tear the tape by hand. It doesn’t look very neat, but it does work.

   Overall, if you’re looking kinesiology tape then this one sticks pretty well and is reasonably priced.

   So it totally works for what I use it for (belly tape during pregnancy)
   Only complaint is the residue & how hard it is to remove at times! I don’t sweat so my body doesn’t help it come off on its own so I find myself screeching removing it. Even with rubbing alcohol.
   But it is easy to use, you actually use less than you’d think! So go easy on the length used.

   J’ai essayé plusieurs tapes dans les dernières années et celui est de loin supérieur aux précédents. Son adhésif permet un maintien prolongé et il reste en place pendant de nombreux jours malgré les douches quotidiennes et tout. Je le recommande fortement.

   SB SOX kinesiology tape is terrific for lending light support to injured body parts. I’ve used other brands in the past, but the SB SOX tape is more forgiving and sticks better. Yes, you will probably need to use the yank-and-shriek method for removing the tape because, if you’ve applied it correctly, it probably won’t come off on it’s own. IMO, pulling it off isn’t a big deal at all unless a lot of body hair is involved. The tape can stay stuck for weeks, but it should be removed after one week to allow the skin to breathe. Pulling it off after it’s gotten completely wet in the shower works best. Otherwise, after bathing just blot it lightly to remove excess moisture. I sometimes use a hair dryer for quicker drying.

   Some key points for successful application: 1) Clean the area with rubbing alcohol. 2) Measure the length you will need and cut the tape an inch or so shorter than the area you plan to cover. 3) Round the corners of the tape. 4) Tear the paper backing in half vertically, roughly in the middle of the strip you’ve cut (the fabric will not tear), and turn the cut edges of the paper back to expose several inches of fabric. These cut edges are where you will hold onto the tape as you apply it. Try to avoid getting your fingers on the adhesive. 5) Place the exposed piece of fabric in about the middle of the area you want to tape, stretching it slightly (up to about 25%). Continue to work your way to the end of the strip, stretching and attaching one end at a time. Remove paper backing as you go. Do NOT stretch the last couple of inches at either end of the tape.

   Application of any kinesiology tape gets easier after you’ve done it a few times. Meanwhile, not to worry if you get a few small wrinkles during the application. There are a number of tutorials available online for correct application methods. In some cases, as with a meniscus tear, applying a double strip of tape horizontally over the meniscus, along with a single strip vertically on either side of the kneecap, seems to work best. Also, to go with the great quality, this tape is a great deal!! Couldn’t recommend it enough!!!

   Quality is inferior!
   It won’t even last 2 hours on my knee and even if you whisper the word ‘Water’ around the tape it will come off.
