Try blueliner tape it works great I can get almost a 2 week hold from it. If you apply it to your forehead place the shiny side on your forehead. If you apply it to the lace then place the matte side on the lace. I know it sounds strange but its best to apply your unit at night after you apply it get a long scarf and comb your hair back and tie up your perimiter in the morning it will be a great hold. If you can tie your head up every night before you go to bed. This also applies to adhesive.
