QuoteReplyTopic: How do I use Liquid Gold? *URGENT* Posted: January 05 2008 at 11:08pm
I got my D-Lux hair today. I'm so excited! I also ordered some liquid gold to try out too. I would normally use bss latex glue but I figiured I try some LG since it seems to be a favorite around here.
Okay, so how do I use it? I know it sounds like a silly question. I'm curious about application to the weft? How much should I use? Like a pea size strip or just a brush stroke? I heard using a syrenge is easier but I don't have one as of now
Also I'm curious as to how long it will hold? Longer then latex glue? About a month or so?
I'm selfish, impatient, & a little insecure, I make mistakes, I am out of control, & at times, hard to handle. But if you cant handle me at my worst, then you sure as HELL dont deserve me at my best

You just paint it on the top of the weft on the front and back and stick it to your hair. I usually put some in between the wefts and hold in flat iron to set so I can have double wefts. I have found it holds super strong, better than tape which can leave a messy residue to clean up. Good luck! :o)

It holds very well for most people I think. Like more than a month, an install basically...
I used to use the brush with LG and I learnt how to use the syringe recently, it's not easy at first -at least for me!-
LG comes off quick thick, so just put one layer on your weft and don't leave any empty spots and you'll be fine.
Kristie (from DIYextensions.com) found a different syringe for LG that is supposed to be very practical, it's thinner than average, I haven't tried it yet but I plan to.
I got really anxious last night so I went ahead and did it. I think it worked out pretty okay except i accidently placed a weft on the top hair where my hair was parted eeek. haha. I fixed it though. it seems pretty strong, and it smells toxic haha. I was considering doing the double weft thing but I might do that once I'm more experienced with application. :) I post pics soon.
