What type of glue can I use to glue tracks into a friends hair? And, what should I have her do to her hair before we glue them in?

How long does she want them to last? You could use black latex weave glue, liquid gold, protac (??) or super tape.

I think LG is easier to remove than latex. Ya know what, don't use latex. Every time someone talks about it, it never ends well.

Have you tried using a syringe to apply the LG? If you still find LG too messy I would opt for a tape install.

Liquid Gold or Vapon No Tape are good options.. Have her wash the hair to remove all oils (a clarifying shampoo is best). Do not use conditioners or oils on the hair prior to the install..

Diva, is it true that acetone easily removes the latex weave glue? When I used it in the mid 90's we used oil to remove it.

Latex glue is not good IMHO. Vapon No-Tape is excellent and not as messy as LG from the bottle. LG is great in the syringe! I got some from Amms shop and the syringe too.

yep, the vapon works well too. And the vapon you can get in the tube or the bottle w/brush. You can use the tube and sqeeze the glue along the weft and its less messy or use the bottle w/a syringe for the least messiness.

Girl the last time I used latex glue it seemed like a good shampoo dissolved that glue!LOLLOL Thank goodness it was a temp style for a special occasion..LOLLOL But yes, acetone will dissolve latex glue INSTANTLY!!

LOLLOL My girlfriend was the weave queen but she would go way overboard. She had so much weave glue in her hair from NOT REMOVING THE GLUE FOR MONTHS and REAPPLYING OVER AND OVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I had to perm her hair to get it all out!!!!!!!!!!!LOLLOL I told her she was a dumb hoe for doing that to her hair.
 There's nothing sadder in the whole world than a dumb hoe except for maybe an old hoeNo
