purging tool....?

Hi everyone,
Does anyone know how this is used? It is on the superhairfactory site. THey say it reheats the bond. Is this for fusion pretipped strands? DUH- I don't get it.

Saucy

Can't figure out how to post a pic yet.... workin on it. IT's here:

some fusion adhesives like Torain and wax based glues require that you reheat the bonds to remove them. Hence the purging tool. And the tool that Leia said looks like a soldering iron basically looks just like one! Not the same tool as a single side heat or dual side heat fusion wand.

Oh yeah Leia....BIG toolboxes..... 5 or 6 of em!

LOL...his and hers toolboxes!

OH NO!!!! dont use the purging tool mto try to remove the extensions as you will melt all the wax all through your hair! The purging tool is used as this......

.....Once you roll the bond, some certain types of hair glue (NOTE: purging tool not designed to be used with Keratin wax) you need to re-heat it with the purging tool (as certain types of glue are heavier) and this makes sure it bubbles the glue all through the strands making sure it has a perfect seal and less shedding.

It makes your time double. I trained using this method, only now i use Keratin wax (which is lighter and doesnt need purged) and it is much quicker.

I occasionally still use the purging tool but only if there's a bond im not happy with or would like to tidy up and by melting the bond again you are able to re-roll.

yeah Sherrie, I didn't like this tool and that's why I got rid of it.

It's not hard to use, it's just more time consuming as It's like doing the process twice on one head. Not for me!! I like the dual fusion wands much better.

Im always interest in learning any new ways of removal as with pure keratin wax sticks that i use, removal with a solution and removal plyers can take anything between 2-4 hrs and is a struggle so possibly if i new more of your method then i could use this instead.

HH100...this is ONLY for Torain fusion. Here is what the Torain instruction manual says that came with my kit.
TO DISENGAGE FUSION HAIR EXTENSIONS:
#1 Apply one or two drops of oil (Torains own remover) directly on the adhesive connection
#2 Singular removals are easily done with the applicator gun or the purging tool. (It shows a picture of the tip of the gun being placed on the bond)
To remove multiple extensions and tracks from the head use a heated curling iron. Place the barrel of the iron directly on top of the adhesive until it melts down through the natural hair. ( there is a picture of several bonds being clamped with a curling iron)
Make sure that all of the adhesive has been removed from the hair before you attempt to shampoo it out. If you feel any stickiness then you will need to apply more heat until adhesive is totally melted into the oil and dispersed. Apply shampoo directly to the hair before rinsing with water.

HH100 as I said this is for Torain which is WAX based fusion. Keratin is totally different and is not applied the same or removed the same way. With Keratin there is no need to purge the bond, nor the need to reheat the bond to remove. You just use remover(usually acetone based) and a pair of pliers to crunch the bond to remove.
