Ok, so last Thursday I installed some wefts with LG.  This was my 1st time using LG.  Well today I have had one section of a row come off, it is about 2 inches long and in the center of the row.  The LG is still on the hair and the weft and it feels kinda "rubbery".  How do I glue it back on?  Is it easy to do or should I just leave it?

Also, I have a few areas were the weft slipped down from the glue row (but it is still sticking to the hair) and now I can see the glue, is it safe to try to remove this, or should I just wait until I am ready to remove it all. Does this make sense????

Your advice is much appreciated!!!

gsmile, did you read my update I have a row doing the same thing. Its coming loose in the middle, but almost 2 weeks. Id probably try to at least tack it down or get a little LG under that track. But be careful, or it could get messy. Either you didnt hold it until the glue set and didnt get a good bond, or not enough glue on that section of the track...I think thats what mine was. (Im not used to NOT sandwiching, so I think I was a little light on the glue on that particular section) If you are not sandwiching I would suggest more glue for holding power.

The ones that slipped down from the glue were probably not held long enough when you installed and slipped before they bonded securely. I always hold them and keep rubbing my fingers over the bonded track until I know the glue has set securely, usually a couple of minutes. Then I use a blowdryer to help set them. That I would probably just leave alone until you are ready to remove.

my experience with LG has always been with the sandwiching method...so this install is a new one for me (not sandwiching) so I will learn along the way too!

Thanks, your probably right, I didn't hold the track long enough.  I think that I stuck it on, pushed it and then didn't want to get my fingers too sticky so I grabbed the hair dryer and put heat on it.  I bet it wasn't secure enough and slipped as it was drying.

I'll try fixing the one area tommorrow.

thats what happened to me, I didnt use enough glue and they all practically fell out my head after a week.  (that followed a week where I DID use enough glue and had a bitch of a time getting them out)

Man, damed if you do, and damed if you don't. 

I hate it when that happens.

What are you wearing now Kalika?  I keep waiting to see the new pics.

Has domestic life just sucked up all your hair time???
