I installed my Diva on Friday with protacs & LG.  Right away I was getting some itching on the underside at the back of my head, about the lower half down to the nape of my neck.  I thought at first maybe it was the beard.  But the rest of head isn't really bothering me, so maybe it's the protac and not the beard??  This is the same area that bothered me on the last install.  I am allergic to latex stuff....
 
They are really itchy too, keeping me up at nightCry
 
Happy Mommy's Day!!

I dont think it is, but I cant be sure.  Maybe you can email the owner of the liquid gold site?

Liquid gold I believe IS a latex based bonding agent.

Also you might want to check if the GS glue you are using to seal the wefts is latex based as well..

I have emails in to my supplier of pro-tac and sent a email to LG
 
I looked at the LG website and they say it is NOT rubber based.
 
Im just waiting for return answers to my questions....

Thannks girls!!  The itching is better after a good shampooing with clarifying shampoo.  I did start a patch test tonight.  It'll prolly bother me being right on my skin, but we'll see.  I don't think it's the LG since none of the wefts that I secured with it are bothering me.  I only did these on the sides.  I also don't think it's the GS because it is only a very small amount and it is concealled in the protac and does not come in contact with my skin at all.....
