> 3 dayMy daughter plays volleyball and has lots of knee problems problems. She’s always used KT tape and this certain brand helps A LOT! And the blue color was so cute. 10/10

> 3 dayIn terms of relief and support, the results were as flat as a deflated football. The tape did little to alleviate my discomfort or enhance my performance, making me question the steep price tag. To sum up, the KT Tape was a disappointing investment - it was more of a false start than a victory lap in my athletic journey.

> 3 dayMy daughter needs this tape daily as she has subluxing shoulders, but her skin is constantly irritated, marked up, and itchy when she removes it. I want to rate it high as it does it’s job, but note the problem with removal.

> 3 dayIm left handed and Ive torn my left rotator twice, along with my bicep. To get added support, I bought the KT tape. My thoughts were that with Kerri Walsh being a sponsor, it must be good stuff and Im not overjoyed with it. I had a hard time with this and wasted 5 of the 20 strips trying to get it to stick. To place it for rotator support, its very difficult to place yourself and the tape has a tendency to slingshot back when trying to apply it. It sticks to itself great but it didnt stick well to my skin. Because I paid $15 for the roll, Ill use what I have left, as best I can but I wont rebuy this brand. ** UPDATE 10-08-2017 ** KT immediately contacted me after my review was published and as you can see from their response, offered tips and tricks. Additionally, they offered to replace the roll at no charge. I gladly took them up on this offer and they shipped the replacement roll, free of charge, immediately. The tips and tricks did help but I still have trouble getting this on myself (because of my injury location), but its no fault of KT. My suggestion to you is that if you have a rotator cuff injury that youre trying to support, have someone else put the tape on for you. The instructions inside the package will also give you a picture of how to apply it correctly for that particular injury location. ** Update 2 *** It will help you out tremendously if you buy some alcohol prep pads, which are very inexpensive. Ive found that by wiping down the area with a prep pad and letting it dry, before I apply the KT tape, makes a huge difference. The tape seems to go on better and adhere to the skin better, in addition to easier removal when youre read to take it off. ** Update 3 ** Ive updated my review to a 5 star rating. I dont know if KT has improved the adhesive on their product or if the big difference was made by me learning to apply it correctly. Whatever the situation, this stuff REALLY sticks. Before I apply it, I just pour some alcohol on a paper towel and wipe down the area thoroughly, before letting it dry or wiping it down with another paper towel. Theres no danger of this stuff coming off and Id suggest when you remove it, that you do so in the shower. If you pull it too quickly - like a band-aid, youre gonna pull skin. In my opinion, the precut strips are the way to go and heres a tip: When you start to put them on, peel the backing back only about one inch. This will allow you to get it started without it flopping back and sticking it on itself or on your hands and from there, just slowly remove the backing as you move along the area that youre applying it too. Once Ive started it, I just hold the backing tape with my thumb and index finger and Im moving it along my arm and shoulder. When you get the technique down, its easy to apply yourself (unless youre putting it on your back). KT Tape has been a tremendous help to me. Ive reordered three times and will continue to do so in the future.

> 3 dayThis product works as advertised and is definitely worth every penny. It doesnt come off when exposed to water, it relieves muscle pain, and its reasonably priced. The bonus of this KT Tape Pro is that it comes in a reusable, plastic, compact, cylindrical case that can be used for other purposes. The only downsides are that when you sweat, this KT Tape Pro gets a bit itchy, and tiny bits of tape stick to your skin (and are difficult to remove) when you peel off the tape.
