QuoteReplyTopic: Worst Removal Ever! Posted: September 25 2007 at 1:05pm
Malibu:
I used that Vapon tape I got at Sally's that I used for my homemade skin wefts. I never had a problem getting LG out with Goo Gone, and it always stays in pretty well.
Ms. Honey: Thanks! I will post LOADS of pics as always...
I think the key to this removal would have been the goo gone...oh well we live and learn right?

Well the good news is: I got my Tiffany Twist and I got my hair dye. So I am hoping to have my install done by next week????? No promises though...I am thinking that since it DID hold so well that I will only do the very bottom and the very top and sides with TT and then I will do 2 double wefted rows of the Vapon-tape with the LG.....we'll see if I will be eating my words in 6-8 weeks....
Wow girl, that's quite an install you're planning. You are a true DIYE'er. Good luck. Make sure you post plenty of pics. I'd love to see how it turns out.

Oh no Mila. I'm so sorry that happened. That's so stressful!!! What tape did you use? I know acetone works well on LG but in my experience, LG is a mess. I hate those boogers and it didn't hold that well for me.
Good luck with the Tiffany Twist. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you. (well, not literally)

So Sunday I just could not take this install anymore...most of the wefts had minimal hair because of the crazy shedding...and this FR was ready to be exterminated! I ran out of Goo Gone and decided to slather conditioner all over my hair and take them out that way...well that was stupid of me...
The tape that I used was complete and total CRAP! I mean let me put it this way...combined with the LG it had the best hold ever...HOWEVER...it was like cement in my hair...I already had the install in for over 3 weeks so it should have been a bit loose...but no...not even a little! I was shocked...who knows maybe it would have been a better removal with the Goo Gone...we'll see...
But I stood in my shower trying to get it out and it would not budge! Then it finally started pulling away....buuuuuuut...since i put two pieces of tape on each side of the hair...the top tape would come off but the bottom tape which was also adhered with LG would not move. Let me tell you what a fight this was! Evantually I started using acetone...anyhow after much negotiating, bribing and pulling they came out FOR THE MOST PART...there are still pieces of tape everywhere....oye! Oh and the tape does not disinigrate like protac did...it looked more like masking tape when it came out...I would have taken pics of the wefts but at that point I could not even look at them!
