Whether you’re working with women’s wigs or atoupee for men, here are a few tips to successfully yet gently remove adhesives:


  1. Apply the adhesive remover and let it sit on your client’s scalp.
  2. Give the remover enough time to soak in. (This makes removal much easier!) 
  3. Use a microfiber towel to clean off any adhesive residue on your client’s scalp and hairpiece. 
  4. Wash your client’s scalp with shampoo and water to remove any final bits of adhesive or adhesive remover.
