Which Lace Front Wig Glue
Is Best For Oily Skin?
(and other lace wig glue questions)
"Which lace front wig glue works best if you have oily skin?"
Trying to find the best lace front wig glue that works for your particular skin type can involve experimenting. If you have very active sebaceous glands and so have oily skin or combination skin, there are wig adhesives designed to be oil-resistant if not oil-proof.
We've said it before and we'll say it again; we’re not an authority on adhesives of any kind but we do know a thing or three about some of the adhesives that are designed specifically to work even when skin has a tendency to be oily.
Much like other Q&As there are always more than one type of question, so as folks are keen to find out which lace wig adhesives are skin friendly, we'll crack on and get straight down to business by listing some of the perspiration resistant lace wig liquid adhesives that are also known to be skin friendly (oh and just because the question cites lace front wigs, the following info is for all types of wigs that use adhesives in order to be attached).
Lace Front Wig Glue Options for Those with Oily Skin and Allergies or Sensitivities to Ingredients Commonly Found in Wig Adhesives
Allergies or sensitive skin can mean that certain types of wig adhesives may not be suitable, but there are three wig adhesives that were specifically designed for those with oily skin or combination skin and not only that, they were formulated to be skin friend and so don't contain harsh chemicals (hooray!).
In no particular order, here are some lace wig adhesives that are known to be skin friendly and work with perspiration.
- Ghost Bond XL is a favourite that's been specifically designed to work with oily skin (as well as high levels of humidity and perspiration); put bluntly, it's impermeable to oil.
Ghost Bond is a super wig adhesive as it can stay completely cured throughout its four week hold.
It's a super-duper wig adhesive as not only is it a lace front wig glue; it can also be used with PU wigs. - Oil Resistant White Glue (ORWG) - the name's a bit of a giveaway isn't it? However it still deserves a min run through of its attribute.
ORWG was specially formulated to withstand oily skins, this oil-proof wig adhesive is super easy to apply and what's more a little goes a very long way and despite it's long hold time, it's easily released with lace release. - Davlyn Waterproof Green Label Adhesive (not to be confused with the black labelled Davlyn waterproof adhesive) is not only waterproof but also designed to work with oily and combination skin types. What's more, it's a lace front wig glue that can also be used on PU wigs, lace frontals and toupees.
The caveat (as with all things) is that the effectiveness of any wig adhesive depends on body chemistry and environment.
How long you’d like the oil-resistant lace wig front glue (bond) to
last
OK, so
we've covered some of the lace wig liquid adhesives that are specifically
designed to withstand oily skin but out of those, which ones offer shorter
or longer hold times? Read on to find out about the shorter and longer term
options:
Short Term Oil Resistant Wig Adhesive Options
- Davlyn Waterproof Green Label Adhesive provides a hold time of between one and two weeks but can also be used for daily wear.
Longer Term Oil Resistant Wig Adhesive Options
- Oil Resistant White Glue (ORWG) takes things up a step of offering a hold of between one and four weeks
- Ghost Bond XL is a straight
up four week hold
As we said at the top of this guide, finding the right lace wig adhesive can often be an experimental journey, a bit like finding the right skin care products.
Finding what will work for you can be frustrating, especially as what works as a good wig adhesive for one person, might not work for another - everybody is different and each body is different.
It can be trial and error, but the main thing to do is keep trying until you find what works for you in terms of hold time and how your skin responds;
Righto, that should be enough oil resistant lace front wig glue to keep you going and you can always check out the guide to a few more adhesives to find the best lace wig adhesive for you or the guide about perspiration-resistant lace wig adhesives.
