So I was not thinking of picking up a smelly habit Smile. So, from what you are saying, I as well as others are being informed incorrectly. I am so glad I found this site and joined. Please feel free to share more info concerning FLW, and once again thank you.



I was told the exact same thing about the Ultra Hold glue and am having a hard time getting it to hold for 4 days....lol.

Bella8933, I could not stop laughing LOL! This is just the beginning and I am in the mist of researching and plan to continue. I'm hoping that this website will continue to be helpful.
Much Thanks

Oh that's what we all read about lf wigs ...initially. It's myth.
 
But when you start to read and learn .. you see that maybe with the right adhesive combo so can manage this but how about your hair underneath?
 
It will be growing and building up all sorts of oil, dead skin etc so when you remove it .. you will have to deal with you own head which is sure to be a knoted mess. :(
 
Plus ..your head will be ITCHING you all that time which will drive you nuts.
 
 
If you wash your unit on your head - you can't be sure your own hair dries properly so you might end up with a fungus growing on your scalp. This is not a nice thing because the doctor will most likely have to shave and treat your head and tell you to leave it uncovered for some time. So now you are really walking around .. bald. Confused
 
You need to do your research - true but once you get your application down .. it will look like it's yours (just don't go overboard on the color and length!) :)
 
Good luck ...  grasshopper! (Karate kid circa 1975)

Hey Pastor Sha'be,
 
One of the ladies on another forum recommended the combo Davlyn Green and True Blue Tape (which she purchased from "For Girls Like Us"....
Hope this helps

I think you have a misunderstanding about how long the unit can last on your head with glues etc.
 
If someone told you you could get a 3 - 4 week hold - .. umm they were just trying to get your money.
 
I am a member if several lf boards and the averge time is about a week. Some girls can last up to two weeks but their head will be stinky by two weeks so all those folks you will be trying to impress will be wondering why you smell.

Aside from this ... as the other member stated .. the glues don't work for everyone in the same way Some people layer several different adhesives, some layer with liquid adhesives with adhesive tape etc - you have to try out different things for yourself.
 
This is not a 'quick' way of dealing with your hair. It takes time and effort - otherwise it's gonna look .. bad.Confused

Trust me, I totally understand (smile)
The bad thing about adhesives is what might work for someone else.....may not work for you (I learned the hard way LOLLOL)  So try the adhesive combo C.O.G. recommended and see how it works for you......Good luck to you!

I agree with C.O.G., it's not very healthy to keep your unit on that long....I do understand being on the go all the time though.
 
Also, I agree with her hold recommendations...great hold!

Thank you so much Child of God, but I'm always on the go and I need to know what I can use to hold the full lace wig for at least 3 to 4 weeks without any lifting.

Hi, I don't keep my unit on for 4 weeks because I just HAVE to wash my hair every week, but I get a very good hold with Davlyn Green and Pro-flex noshine tape. HTH
