I use LG only for my installs. I have read on the board where installs last 6 weeks. My tracts start loosening up after a week and a half. The edges start loosening. I was wondering if it is just me or if those who use LG only have to touch up often in order to keep an install that long.
 
I have had mine in for a little under two weeks and I have touched up twice and the center 3 inches of one weft is completely separated from the hair. I touched up the sides the a.m. before work, so the weft wouldn't completely come down. I cannot do the tape. I did it twice, but my hair is so fine that the tape/LQ take down is a nightmare.
 
I use a liberal amount of liquid gold and clear shampoo. I am aware of the sandwich technique but have not tried it yet.
 
How often do  you touch up with LG for LG only installs?
