Is this some sort of compound to prep a weft for tape. In essence making a "rubber" foundation for the tape to adhere to(seemless style)? Or is this merely to repair lacefronts and other systems?
The way that I read it, you could make your own seamless. Now I could be wrong, but if you took a weft and put a coat of this stuff just below the stitching, allowed it to dry, then added 2 additional coats, I would think that you could cut the top of the weft off, leaving you with a seamless foundation to apply your tape to.
Some factors to consider would be how thin the liquid is, and how long will it hold up without shedding or just completely disinigrating. Looks promissing tho.

I hope it works better then liquid gold. I tried the seamless weft they mentioned on their site, and it was fine for the first week, then it started getting all rubbery and white and looked like I had dandruff army ready to deploy.
Sounds like what we need! I wonder if you did it below the weft 3 coats or more then cut off weft above. It would look like injected hair and would be very light. Wonder if it would work for pre tipping for tubes?
Yeah...I'm thinking along the lines of you Marie and gsmile.
I called this company a ways back(regarding C22)...It was an odd little conversation. He likes to talk..but I'd rather that than someone to blow me off! Maybe I'll call, or if anyone else wants to, explain I'm try to create a poly base for wefts...maybe he will have some recommendations.
OFF TRACK (NO WEFT) HAIR TO HAIR INVISIBLE BONDING: People, who really need Hair Weaving due to thinning hair of alopecia conditions, cannot enjoy the results of hair weaving, because they do not have enough natural hair to hide the weft. Therefore, hair weaving is confined to those who just want a different look. People who really need it because of lack of natural hair to disguise the weft cannot. With the Liquid Gold revolutionary method and specially formulated system, this is no longer a problem. DIRECTIONS: Due to the fact that Liquid Gold dries clear and will bond when dry on both the added hair and the natural hair, you can provide the following services. Most hair for weaving is two smaller separate tracks sewed together. Using a razor blade or shears, split the wefts apart. (This will compare to the patrons own thinning hair). Apply the bond to the hair just BELOW the weft, as close to the weft as possible (not on the weft) on BOTH SIDES of the wefted hair, then to the parted natural hair close to the scalp (not on the scalp). Lay weft on parted scalp so that the bonded area below weft will be where bond is on natural hair. Press on with the back of a styling comb, then seal lightly with a warm curling iron. Cut away weft with shears. The parting will make a perfect channel to cut away the weft without cutting the natural hair. If done correctly, the added hair should look and feel as though it is growing from the scalp. Always apply the bond with thin even strokes. If you apply the bond to heavily, it will show through and not look natural. Applying the bond to heavily will not make it bond any stronger or longer.
I did that and the bonds got all gummy and gross. looked good for the first couple days though
Kalika, i've done the off track bonding too and it is good for just a
few days (clean). But i can work with it sometimes if i need a little
bit aroiund part blending. Off track is great for that. But it yellows
and looks flakey quick!

Koffee, I wouldn't worry about it coming in contact with the natural hair. Because when you do a seamless install the tape surrounds the base of the extension hair, so only the tape gets on your natura hair. And the tape slides off the natural hair with a few pumps of amms orange remover.

I was referring to getting it on the extension hair. I don't know what
that means about not letting it come in contact w/ "hair". But I should
have my EasyTay by this wkend (hope) and I'll sure let u know.
I think that if you were useing this to touch up a hair system ( intended use) then getting it on the hair would be really bad. but for what were thinking of doing with it well that's another story. As long as it sticks to the hair it sounds like it will work
ok marie, I see what u're saying. It means the EasyTab will stick to
your natural hair, but in this case, that's what I want it to do! -- to stick to the extension hair to create the 'strip'
