Hi Firyspell.... I don`t use the `normal`conditioners in between washes as they have to be rinsed out..... `Enhance ` and `It`s a 10 ` are in a pump-action bottle which you spray on/in and do not rinse out.... I haven`t heard of conditioners used just after shampooing, which are usually applied for 10 mins. or so before being rinsed out, having a negative effect on knots. If knot-sealer has been applied to them, that should prevent them becoming undone. I apply it if/when the hair begins to feel a little dry...simply mist with water and a few darts of leave-in conditioner which I brush through... I often `back-comb`the hair to get it kind of standing up so that the conditioner isn`t just `sitting on top`of the hair....it`s best to try to coat the hair shafts as much as possible....once it`s standing up, the conditioner will penetrate further into the system......
I don`t use Got2b usually...it`s fine for 90% of the head to give a good hold with easy clean-up..simply hop into the shower and get it wet and it will release easily and simply rinse off.....you`ll need to use an ordinary glue or tape for the very front as Got2b tends to lift at the very perimeter...... I can`t give you any feed-back on the glues you mention as I use a white glue called `Tracksafe` which I bought a large tub of a long time back when I was in my `Salon`days... have you read the thread there by Mr Hair titled `Ultra Hold Nightmare Over`... there`s information there on how different guys `get on`[or not ! ] with different glues... it`s really trial and error until you find one you can `work ` with ... the front lace part should not be problematic to clean ..just spray on some lace-release and allow to penetrate for a minute or two and it should just lift free with most of the residue on the skin.....I only really do a very light bond as I pop this system off my head nightly...I only use a little glue at the very front and down in front of the ears..it`s full cap and I `ve yet to bother bonding the back or the sides[ lol] I`m lazy ! ....I just release it there with lace- release and use glue melter on the residue on the skin......I know many wearers haven`t the `luxury`of that and want/need a full -perimeter bond especially with a Topper....if you apply the glue/s correctly allowing the layers to dry properly, you should have little worries/problems with cleaning the lace..... again it`s a bit of trial and error to find what suits you best.... regards, Paul.
