X-10 for me too. I pretip with them. I don't think I'll ever be able to actually hold a glue gun to my head and get it right. . .

I fan a section of the hair, and use latex first, making a very flat little tip. Then I go over it on both sides with a small amount of X-10. To install, I heat it with my docs wand, wait a few seconds, then roll. It has worked in amazing ways!!

That reminds me...I needed some of those but not a whole pack.

Does anyone have any X-10 sticks in blonde for trade? PM me. :)

X-10 in a mini-glue gun (esp. the Singer mini glue gun at Target, $2.99) that doesn't leak - now there's the hot set up for fusion.

x-10 user here too. I like it better than any other keratin sticks that Ive used. Although I dont find alot of difference, I think it melts pretty easily in a hot pot. Some sticks dont melt as well.

I use X-10 extension glue.  I also have used Torrain and I don't reccommend it.  It's wax based so it gets gummy quickly, and it's more difficult to get out than keratin.

I use the blond high tech glue disks from His and Her, melted in a hot pot. It's 27$ a bag and they go far. But it does get white/gummy sooner than I'd like.  I haven't tried any other brands yet.  I am also interested to hear what brands of fusion glue people have experience with.

Hi,

I was wondering what type of glue people are using for individual fusion extensions? What kind of glue is available? Is there a type/brand of glue that lasts longer/stronger? How about removal, my stylist uses acetone and I wonder if it's drying my hair out?

My stylist uses mega glue that she squirts out of hot glue gun, is this the best kind of glue to use?

Thanks in advance for all your advice and support,

Christina
