"Also, even though I didn't use my first two boxes last year with rubbing alcohol, I felt that they were somehow "old" even when newly purchased."
"Maybe I got a bad batch because this one isn't sticking very well."
"* Like the cotton much more than the synthetic."
"* Works wonders, but if you're looking for more support or for the tape to stay on longer, pony up the extra money and buy the synthetic KT tape."
"The ends come off easily and you cant shower with it on."

"A year ago I would have given it an average 3 star rating but now I've figured out how to make it work the best, I think it totally deserves 5 stars when used properly... Also, even though I didn't use my first two boxes last year with rubbing alcohol, I felt that they were somehow "old" even when newly purchased... Normally I peel it off myself before the tape falls off because I want to avoid skin sensitivity from frequently and prolonged application and excessive usage of the surrounding muscles supporting the pain spot."
"* My first package was awesome. Maybe I got a bad batch because this one isn't sticking very well. I even rubbed it extra long to get it to stick."

Also, even though I didn't use my first two boxes last year with rubbing alcohol, I felt that they were somehow "old" even when newly purchased... For the best results, definitely clean with soap first, then wipe the area with rubbing alcohol before applying the tapes... Even though some edges will peel very slightly, it doesn't progress further and will hold the support very firmly even after multiple showers. Normally I peel it off myself before the tape falls off because I want to avoid skin sensitivity from frequently and prolonged application and excessive usage of the surrounding muscles supporting the pain spot... I just find the pre-cut roll more convenient because of the way I use it, especially because they come with round corners... If I use KT Tape, it will peel off and I need re-use rubbing alcohol and re-apply the tape the next time I exercise, subsequently causing a lot more skin irritation."
