Soo I know most people scream and run away at the sight or thought of the classic ole hair bonding glue, but I saw the most interesting thing that made me want to post this thread.....so on to explaining. A friend of mine had cut her hair into the very short crop cut (tapered in the back) about 7 months ago and she hated it, so she started wearing weaves til it grew back. Well her hair is about neck length now and over this past weekend I went with her to her hair appointment and I noticed the stylist was giving her the classic invisible part weave but she molded her hair down and started gluing the tracks down. So when we left I asked her about it and she said that that's what her stylist has been doing since she first started getting weaves. She said that it stays in for a good 3 weeks, and when it's time to take it out her stylist uses some kind of organic shampoo (which I will get the name of) and the glue slips right out as she combs her hair while shampooing, and she hasn't had any problems as far as serious breakage or hair getting ripped out. She said that she had worse experiences with sew-ins than she does with glue and she didn't see why people hated it so much. She wasn't saying that the glue promoted hair growth or anything but she found it to be easier to install and she was still getting the same results as someone wearing wigs, braids, and sew-ins. So I'm beginning to wonder is the reason hair bonding glue so badly looked upon because we never really knew how to remove it? I know I've had serious breakage and shedding from sew-ins as well, but it wasn't until I got better at them and knew what I was doing that I started to see better results with my real hair. What do you ladies think? I know most of you will never go back to glue lol, but I'm wondering is this another great protective style we're shunning simply because we don't have the removal technique as down pact as we think we do? Thoughts?
