Hello

when i put my hair in using a glue gun, shall i pretip the hair first with nail glue, or is there no need to bother, im thinking that when i roll the hair, it will blend in better if it's not pretipped? What do you think?

 

also, when using a glue gun, does the bond dry hard? or will it remain soft/tacky?

You want to pretip the hair, it'll be much easier to control.

If you're putting hair in using a glue gun, I'm assuming you're doing fusion. If you're doing fusion, you DON'T want to use nail glue.  You use nail glue to tip for shrinkies and extendtubes.  If you use nail glue to pretip fusion, it's not going to work right, and it might very well be a disaster.

no pretip it with fusion glue from your gun.  or just leave it loose.  pretipping will slow you down overall but make it faster and easier as it goes in.  its just what you pretip with not that you pretip
