Step 4: Get some wig glue

Step 5: Remove excess glue and be ready to go

Pull the lace forward over the top of glue, ensuring that it’s in the desired spot before you press the lace into the glue.

Put a small amount of rubbing alcohol on a towel. Now carefully dab around the edge of hairline to remove excess glue on forehead. However, don’t wipe the glue on the lace.

Pros and cons of the glue method

Cons

  • While clips and bobby pins are reusable, wig glue cannot. You have to continually buy more.
  • You should not remove your wig and reapply it several times over the course of the day. That could pull up your hair or irritate your scalp. If you intend to overheat in your wig, try to choose a method that allows you more flexibility for daily removal.
  • If you don’t wash off the glue at the end of the day (either with water of a gentle solution), glue may build up and irritate your skin.
