Wig glue is a liquid adhesive that attaches hair systems to the scalp. The biggest concern when wearing a toupee or wig is making sure it doesn’t fall off. This is where wig glues come in.
Different types of wig glues are available on the market with different hold times. Although human hair wigs can be attached even without glue, to ensure a more precise and stronger hold, liquid adhesives are used. A layer of glue is applied either to the scalp or the base of the wig. After it dries, the hairpiece is then placed on the scalp and lightly pressed down. Even a small amount of adhesive can do the job efficiently.
WHY YOU SHOULD USE WIG GLUE TO ATTACH YOUR HAIR SYSTEM?
Hair systems can be attached in various ways. There’s tape or wig tape, clips and of course, glue. Wig glues might seem like a hassle to some people at first with many opting for tapes instead.
However, here are some points that may change your mind:
Effectiveness: Wig glue is considered the most efficient way of securing hair wigs. It firmly adheres to the overlying toupee unless you remove it by yourself using some solvent. A secure wig makes you more comfortable and confident while you wear it. You can go around without being fearful of your hair system falling off.
Inexpensive: Hairpiece glue is easily available and affordable so you won’t have to worry about spending large amounts of money.
Natural look: Most wig glues are transparent, so this helps contribute to a natural look, especially for the front hairline.
Promising results: Hair system glues are long-lasting and can generally range from two to four weeks.
Easy to use: Hairpiece glue is removed as easily as it can be applied. A single layer of glue does the job. Similarly, it can be easily washed off with adhesive solvents.
Safe to use: Wig glues are generally safe to use, but we always recommend doing a skin patch test first to see if your skin has any allergic reaction. This is the case with tape as well.
Conclusion
Wig glues or liquid adhesives are probably the most popular way to bond your hair system and hopefully after reading this blog, you will now know everything about them and use them as your preferred choice.
