Adhesives

So now I've tried spirit gum w/Hollister's spray adhesive, Mighty tite & Coolpiece Cream adhesive. I can barely get one day with Mighty tite or Mighty tite and tape. It always starts to slip & it is messy.  It gets all in the hair.

 I get about 2 days with Spirit gum and Hollister's, then it starts to slip back from the hairline.  I can get 3 days with spirit gum, Hollister's and Coolpiece Cream.  Spirit gum and Hollisters is so easy to remove from the lace and you.

It definatley is all about trial and error. I will also say that I know alot of the ladies use combos of glue, I say try a glue by itself. you may be using to much. also my LW used to slip at the top of my forehead all the time as well. I realized that I wa pulling it too low on my nape in the back and that was creating tension on the front. I also started to use a very small piece of tape right in the spot where it always slipped an i no longer have that problem. Also have you considered an app with glue only in the front and tape all around the rest? i have found that works great for me, it give's a weeks hold and very easy clean up. and last but not least try the invisibond or the ORWG, i have found both of these to be great when it comes to a 5-7 day hold. oh yeah if you are having a problem with the glue turning white you can dye you glue using 1-2 drops of RIT COCOA BROWN DYE. I dye ALL my glues using this method, and have NO problem with it turning white. Always remeber that less is more when it comes to how much glue to use.

hollisters suck for me. mity tite i might get a 2 days. safe grip, orwg, and proflex were good for me.
