Does weave glue pull out your hair when removing the weave?
-
Yes, weave glue can pull out or break natural hair if the weave hair is removed incorrectly. The glue itself isn't necessarily guaranteed to cause hair loss, but pulling, picking, or trying to rip the glued tracks away from your hair can take your natural strands with them.
The best option would be to first loosen the bond by applying a solution that is especially made for dissolving the glue used in weaving the tracks into hair. It should be done carefully, without forcefully separating the tracks from the real hair. However, if the glue proves to be tough or the hair too delicate, it is better to take the help of a professional stylist.
It's also important to avoid applying too much glue directly to the scalp or natural hair. A protective barrier can help keep adhesive away from the scalp and make removal easier.
After taking the weave out, give your hair some TLC. Gently cleanse away any remaining adhesive, condition thoroughly, and avoid tight hairstyles or excessive heat for a while.
In case you observe any shedding, hair loss, or scalp pain following removal of a glued-in weave, you should stop using the glue and possibly consult a dermatologist or hair care expert.
