Hi ladies,
I was wondering if anyone has ever had any trouble with the liquid gold
holding up? After a few weeks some of my extensions came out
(extentubes) and I ended up having to redo them becaues the liquid gold
was not holding up??? Any advice on this one????
Thanks girls!!

I wonder if there either wasnt enough LG in the tips or the LG didnt get saturated through the tips really well when tipping. I fan out the hair tip and use a fat round toothpick (a party pick actually) and some use a popsicle stick, to work the glue through the strands really well.

yeahI use a plastic knife to spread the hair/glue around.

I get a little occaisional shedding but I attribute that to being lazy in tip making...

How long does it take for the LG to dry?  Do the tips stay pliable or are they rock hard?

LG takes a little while to dry completely, but I cant remember now exactly how long. I have been using so many other tipping glues lately. Im sure someone else will chime in on this one. The tips will be hard with LG.
