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

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.

Thanks Shonita, I realize that it may not be healthy but I need it to hold for at least 2 to 3 weeks without any lifting. This is why, if I am ministering out of state for two weeks and I am in front of hundreds or thousands of people in church (during the day and every night) I would not want the lace wig to lift (smile). So I can change my view on the 4 to 6 weeks but I need that 2 to 3 week hold.

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 ) So try the adhesive combo C.O.G. recommended and see how it works for you......Good luck to you!

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.

Bella8933, thank you soooooo much because that is exactly what I was told (the full lace wig can hold up to 6 wks). I thought WOW, this may be an answer for me. I was told that you can wash your wig on your head along with going swimming (as long as you use a super hold). The wig is not for impressing others but for me ! It's my gift to me. So I was not thinking of picking up a smelly habit . 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.

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.
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)
