Hi ladies,
I was wondering if anyone has ever had any trouble with the liquid gold holding up? After a few weeks some of my extensions came out (extentubes) and I ended up having to redo them becaues the liquid gold was not holding up??? Any advice on this one???? Thanks girls!! |

what do you mean it wasnt holding up? Did the tips come out of the entendtube or did the tips shed? More info please

I wonder if there either wasnt enough LG in the tips or the LG didnt get saturated through the tips really well when tipping. I fan out the hair tip and use a fat round toothpick (a party pick actually) and some use a popsicle stick, to work the glue through the strands really well. |

yeahI use a plastic knife to spread the hair/glue around. I get a little occaisional shedding but I attribute that to being lazy in tip making... |

| How long does it take for the LG to dry? Do the tips stay pliable or are they rock hard? |

| LG takes a little while to dry completely, but I cant remember now exactly how long. I have been using so many other tipping glues lately. Im sure someone else will chime in on this one. The tips will be hard with LG. |

| I find the best thing by far for extentubes is latex and nail glue x |
