Please tell me where you're headed on vacation and how long you intend on wearing your wig for? ☺I find 5 days of wear is my favourite because otherwise I go a little crazy with something being stuck to my head LOL. But, there has been times where I needed to keep my wig on for longer, which is how I know this method works like a charm! I hope it helps you guys too 🥹
As a companion to this great video, can you do one about how to sleep, shower and style a wig you’re keeping on for days at a time? Plus also how to remove after? 😊 I spent a week in London this past spring and would love to know how to do all this for my next trip!
Awww thank you so much!!! ❤ We are having a lovely weekend, the weather is beautiful and we are out enjoying ourselves! I hope you’re having an amazing weekend as well :)
I’m pretty new here, so if this isn’t too personal, can you tell me how and when you made the decision for alternate hair? I know everyone is different and everybody has different reasons. I guess I’m asking how did you find your courage? Love your content and love your brave soul. Thanks❤
Steph, I always wanted to be able leave a piece on for days and not be afraid it will fall off etc. Thanks for sharing! I am willing to look into this company and purchase a wig. Is this a company that you would recommend and/or are there other companies that also offer real wigs and great wigs? Also, how long do they last? Trying to take advice from someone that has a lot more expertise than I do. Thank you!
Really great vlog Steph. You are beautiful no matter what you do!!! Thank you for sharing these amazing tips! I guess I just want to know how to keep the lace front from itching. Sometimes the lace by the ear tabs itch. I want to be able to wear the wig w/o scratching, pulling and adjusting the lace front. I would love to be able to wear to work, to look more professional. I’ve learned to pull the tabs tighter, since my wigs slide up, small head and my sub occipital bones are very small, so doesn’t hold in place. Also, the one size fits all wig cap rides up also, silicone down or up. Any advice is greatly appreciated. 😊
Great tutorial Steph! Would this process for gluing be used on a bald head as well, or would you just glue directly onto the scalp without the nylon wig cap?
@@paula-mw2ux thank you so much! 💕 I personally would just glue directly onto the scalp for a bald head 🤗 and in that case, I would only use the ghost bond glue at the front if you want it to stay for days, and not even bother with the Got2B. Unless you’re wanting a lesser intense glue down, one that will come off with water, you can use the Got2B in place of the Ghost Bond
Hey Stephanie! Love your videos. I don’t see where you listed the coconut oil and other product you used before that. Can you let me know. I am new to wigs due to being terminal. I found your videos so helpful and have bought a lot of items listed. I love this wig by the way. Gorgeous 💜🫶🏼

@@christinaann79 Thank you SO much!!! It is going well! Getting so close to meeting our second baby and I'm just over the moon 🥹 I think Violet is going to be such an amazing big sister! ♥
@@WigsWithSteph She will be the best little helper. I love the name violet. As violets and purples are my favorite colors. And, I just love the uniqueness of it. I’ve ordered 3 wigs so far. I want to buy more (it’s so addicting) all mine are synthetic. Just washed two of them for the first time. I was FREAKING out that I’d ruin them. Ha! So far so good, waiting for second one to dry all the way.
@@charlottelargacci great question! I personally just use the straps but you can totally use glue or tape at the nape. I have hair back there and find it uncomfortable to wear a glued nape for a long period of time. If I was just doing it for a couple of hours, I could stand it, but if it was a glue down for a couple of days, I’d go crazy. Lol 😆
One of the main reasons I wear a cap when gluing a wig down for an extended period is because I have dark bio hair underneath. With a light blonde wig, my dark hair can show through, which takes away from that natural scalp-like effect. Wearing a cap-and even adding a bit of concealer on top-helps the wig look more realistic, especially in certain situations. For instance, if you’re swimming or getting the wig wet around others, the cap ensures your dark hair doesn’t peek through as the wig lays flat. Additionally, a wig cap provides protection against friction, which can occur if you sleep in your wig. Without a cap, the lace can tug on your natural hair and potentially cause breakage. A cap keeps your hair tucked in securely, reducing friction and minimizing the chance of damage. Hope this helps! 😊
@@apacur oh! Sorry! They must have re-arranged their site. Here’s the link: jadorasecret.com/products/harper-s?_pos=1&_sid=31861cfc4&_ss=r Yes, you can definitely wear it with a wig grip. Thats usually how I wear it when I’m not gluing it down. The glue is so that it will last through swimming, sleeping and showering and not budge. The glues adds the ultimate security. If you intend on taking your wig off every night, just wear your wig grip and don’t worry about the glue.
I dont know if anybody will respond to this, but I recently cut my hair short to a pixie cut style because it was so heavily damaged and there was nothing else that I could do. However I hate it and no matter how many times somebody says it suits me I just cant bring myself to like it and it’s really destroying my confidence and self esteem… I’ve been wearing hats and hoods ever since. Im going on vacation for two weeks in February and it’s gonna be a horrible experience if I have to deal with this ugly haircut that entire time, so I’m looking into what I can do and thinking about getting a wig, however I’m a total beginner and don’t even know where to start, if anybody could respond with some tips or where to look or what to watch it would be amazing ❤

So excited to hear a wig can be glued on this long!!! I thought it was a huge no-no sleeping in a wig.
@@paddypaddy2834I agree, I was surprised to hear that gluing a wig for an extended period does not cause her issues with her hairline receding .
It’s a no-no for synthetic wigs. Sleeping in your synthetic wigs will wear them out quickly. Human hair is better which is what she’s wearing. ❤
I'm new to wigs and you are an absolute angel for explaining all this so thoroughly. Thank you so much.
That’s great thanks for the information. What’s the best way to take it off?
😊 I hope you and your family are having a great day It's always a pleasure to listen to what you have to say..
Awww thank you so much!!! ❤ We are having a lovely weekend, the weather is beautiful and we are out enjoying ourselves! I hope you’re having an amazing weekend as well :)
@@WigsWithSteph I'm so glad and thank you so much... It's been a beautiful summer here in Cape May, NJ

I just use 2 layers of got2be spray and it lasts 5 days on me. Removal is super easy: just spray with water
Do you use ghost bond too?
Fascinating Steph! Thank you so much!💝

Do you use glue or tape on the nape or just the elastic straps to tighten at the back?

perfect it really does work thank you x
I see that you have a lower hairline like I do! How do you deal with that? I love your videos
Which glue do your recommend?
Thanks! What will you wear at night for protection? A silk cap?
Hi! ❤ yes! A silk cap, or braid it down and then a silk pillowcase :)
Can you do this with a heat friendly synthetic wig?
@@lisalloyd2958 You can glue down any wig :) Where you put the glue will differ depending on the cap construction though!
Is a cap mandatory under the wig? I have a pixie so my hair won't show but is there any other reason?
One of the main reasons I wear a cap when gluing a wig down for an extended period is because I have dark bio hair underneath. With a light blonde wig, my dark hair can show through, which takes away from that natural scalp-like effect.

A cap keeps your hair tucked in securely, reducing friction and minimizing the chance of damage. Hope this helps! 😊
Omg you’re getting Greta by the day. 👏👏👏
Okay, but how do you remove it 😮😊
Great question! I use this remover from amazon to remove the Ghost Bond Glue: amzn.to/46Wu4Ut
I was wondering the same thing! At some point it would be really cool to see a wig removal video after you've done this kind of glue process.
Yes what do you use to remove it? Thanks.
Hello! =) I use this remover from amazon to remove the Ghost Bond Glue: amzn.to/46Wu4Ut
@@WigsWithSteph thank you.
Can you do this without a synthetic wig ?
So technically yes but should you? No absolutely not. You will quickly ruin it with all the friction.
Good video thanks Steph 👍
Aww thank you so much!! 🥹❤️
Wow, I didn't know you coluld leave coconut oil in your hair for so long
The link to the wig isn't working...
And could this also be worn with a wig grip band instead if gluing it?
