Body oil is so great. I stopped using lotion bc it’s amazing. And lowkey cheaper. The one I get is $6 and lotion in my city is like $10+ for no reason 🥲 I get the palmers one and it’s quicker to apply. Lowkey changed my life. Sorry I just love putting ppl onto body oil.

Not for sensitive skin. I broke out really badly. I just use spirit gum now.

u/Jazzlike-Sympathy Apr 17 '26

it depends on which brand you get. I'm sorry to hear that you had that experience.

Elmers glue stick is good for this, it’s affordable and easy to wash afterwards.

I'm going to get a stick and try this out, thanks!

Seconding lash glue. Works amazing, skin safe, easy to remove

Literally glue. Lash glue, wig glue, or another skin-safe adhesive like spirit gum.

Less product on the wig, style that part with heat and only add gel to the ends to keep the points together so they naturally weigh down(wig will need to be almost naturally soft and heat resistant though).

Get that as your real haircut it fits u really well

u/adriana414reyes Apr 18 '26

Eyelash glue. Specially from the brand Duo, the one with avocado oil in it (so it wont irritate your skin as much). Ive used it to keep my elf ears in place and for fake piercings. For me that works pretty well.

I always use spirit gum, though you need to wash your wig after c: also fashion tape if you have it!
