Rewigging with cold Glue

First decide which wig and apply it to the head.
Pull it down snugly all over, it helps to put your fingers into the hair on
the back of the head to help tug it down.



Make sure you have one or two damp cloths at hand.
After it is reasonably firmly on carefully peel back the hair
above the forehead and apply a line of glue across one way and then back.
Make sure it is not too close to the edge of the wig !

Slowly roll the hair back down. Have your wet cloth ready in case the glue starts
to squish out towards the hair or down the forehead.
.......
Make sure you have it where you want it.
Now- very important ! Let it dry for a few hours !!
Then it will not slide when you do the sides and back.



The sides you just have to lift a bit and squirt some glue in under the wig. Not too much!
......



For the back, roll the wig up a little and apply glue to the scalp. Roll it back down almost to the rim and then apply a this squiggle of glue on the wig next to but not on the edge.
This is especially important if you plan on styling or going someplace so the wig does not
'lift' at an awkward time :)
......


Sometimes I tie a ribbon or put a large loose-ish rubber band around the head to help apply pressure until it dries- depends on the snugness of the wig.
