Wigs can be a magical tool for anyone looking to temporarily change their style, experiment with bangs, or dye their hair without damage (or the occasional regret). However, if you don’t have the right glue for your lace front wig, you risk spending your day worrying about sudden removal and sweat.
Adhesive, also known as glue, cement, mucilage, or paste, is any non-metallic substance applied to one or both surfaces of two separate items (Wig and frontal) that binds them together and resists their separation.
Wigs are a great way to get a natural look and at the same time have celebrity hair at an affordable price. Using an adhesive on your lace front wigs makes it look more natural and helps the lace blend with your skin. The types of glue you select will be determined by your lifestyle and how often you would like. One of the most important questions you should ask yourself is how long you want your application to last. How long an application last depends on the following factors
1. The type of adhesive used for the lace front wig application.
2. How well you follow the application instructions.
3. How oily your skin is.
4. How physically active you are.
5. The type of climate you reside in.

Usage
Cleanse skin with alcohol to remove all dirt and oils. Use the applicator nozzle tip with a brush and wooden stick to apply a thin coat of glue on the hairline evenly. Make sure the glue is dried before applying an additional coat for strength. While the glue is still sticky, apply lace wig onto the hairline and press for 1 minute or until firmly in place. Wait 15 minutes before you begin to style.
Why or why not glue for frontal
To use wigs, you cannot just fix wigs on your head without the frontal. The frontal cannot also just stick to your head without the glue. The essence of the glue is to make the frontal stick to your head and make installation and removal so easy. Frontals need to be attached through sewing, tape or glue. Glue usage is our focus.
The glue is usually white and requires several thin layers spread on the edge of your cap and a little of your skin. After repeated for stability, your stylist will sew down the back of your wig, or your bundles may later be installed and lay the frontal gently across your head until she firmly presses the frontal’s lace against the glue and smoothes in place with fingers or a rattail comb.
