Soft Bond Adhesives

Expect roughly 3 to 4 weeks of hold, depending on body chemistry, activity and climate. Heavy sweating, oily skin and humidity shorten the cycle, so a clean, dry scalp at application gives the longest wear.

Apply 3 to 4 thin coats, letting each one dry clear before adding the next. Thin layers cure fully and bond harder than one thick coat, which traps moisture and lifts early.

Soft bond dries clear, so it stays invisible under skin, lace and poly bases. X20 is formulated for sensitive skin, and the Extreme and Extreme XL formulas give the longest hold in the group.

Metal tubing keeps air out of the adhesive, so clients get the same consistency from the first application to the last and the product lasts longer. For a silicone option that bonds along the hairline without a full shave, see Silicone Based Perimeter Bonding Adhesive.
