    Default Full lace adhesives

    So, I ordered a full lace unit from rpgshow.com and I love it.Here's the link: http://www.rpgshow.com/stock-full-la...31s-p-522.html
    However, I never really had good experiences with adhesives and stopped using them and opted for tape. I was mostly using synthetics or futura mixes then and couldn't understand why someone would want to bond one of those to their head since you only get a couple days use out of them anyway. Well, I went to the salon and had the unit applied and with Salon Pro Ultra hold managed a decent 5 day hold with two touch ups for lifting. I know finding the proper adhesive is a trial and error kind of thing, so it may take a while to find the perfect one for me. I have oily skin and need something that is waterproof that will last at least 7 full days. I've made a standing appt to go every week to have my hair and the unit both cleansed, shampooed, conditioned, and styled. Does anyone have any recommendations that they have actually tried for longer lasting adhesives? I've been looking at Invisibond, Mightytite and Laceit. I've run across a few with longer lasting hold, but their hold is so tight it actually is damn near impossible to remove before 3 or more weeks.
    Thank Goodness I smartened up! The old me is dead and gone.

    i love using Safe Grip adhesive..
    *its water based so its white when u put it on however it dries clear and non tacky like the silicone based ones do..and it goes on like lotion/Elmer's Glue--its not all gooey and stringy like the others..
    *its GREAT for oily skin (i have oily skin too)
    *it lasts me a good week and a half but on the bottle it says its good for a 3-6week hold
    *waterproof

    heres a video describing it:

    Ooh cool! My Walkers Ultrahold drives me NUTS! Even though everyone assures me it is the strongest holding adhesive, and I find it very effective, the spiderweb strings are beyond infuriating! I have tried just about every thing to minimize the stringiness: I use a tiny toothpick, I twirl off excess glue, and I apply it as carefully as possible. The overwhelming precision and extra effort make me crazy.

    I will look into safe grip for sure!
