HI FreshHair.... I`m not the best one to advise on this as I do a nightly de-bond, therefore only do a very light bond [ a light layer of glue at the front and 3 short strips of `mild`tape on the poly] so I simply peel the system off at the taped section and use lace-release to free the system from the glue. I then clean off the glue layer with `pure` adhesive remover, and just peel the tape off the poly. A lot depends on what strength of glue/tape you use and duration of your bond..... some products can get `` messy`the longer they are left on and therefore, more laborious to clean up. The lace -release should also work on tape, if sprayed down through the hair onto it...... the ``pure`` is best to remove the residue from the scalp..... have a read of mrjoejohn`s thread there `` Back again and reviewing Ghostbond vs Ultrahold`` ...he`s done other posts/threads too of his methods and materials for de/re-bonding. Hope a few wearers who do longer term bonds can advise you here. Paul.
