I've had the shrinkies in for three days now, and at first I thought that there is no way I'm going to be able to stand these on my head.  I'm already getting used to them, though.  They get more comfortable every day.   I would say that unless you're having an allergic reaction, then try to keep them in a week and see if they get better.

I don't know, I just know at first that it's weird and pulling funny. After a
few days I get used to them and finger comb out the pieces that got
trapped in the other pieces and stuff.

If it still bothers you in a few days, after washings and combings, maybe
it is the glue.

I think the microlite shrinkies have no adhesive, but you have to use
something somewhere to get it to stay...

I have been playing with shrinkies on my own head.  My head is sore the next day and they are not comfortable at all.  I have looked at all the install pics and I believe my partings are small enough,  my bonds lay flat. Maybe too much hair in the shrinkie? 

I can't use the tips with nail glue, I had a reaction to the glue.  Can you use the liquid gold without the nail glue?

Kudos to Amm's remover.  I used keratin tipped and shrinkies.  I first thought, "OMG I'll never get this out of my hair!!!" I just let the remover soak for a few min., work it in, and comb out with a fine tooth comb.  Works great!!!

Since I can use keratin, should I use shrinkies with no adhesive?

Thank you!!!
