Another "Sticky" Story Ok, so I was going to PetSmart with Chizzie, she was a wee little thing and not enough hair to put up in the fancy bow I had just finished. Well, being the really smart person that I am, I decided to use the "hair glue". It is the stuff used for glueing hair extensions -- really good stuff.... I use it all of the time on the miniature horses, gluing in bows, ribbons, bell, etc. When I'm finished, the glue just combs right out of their manes and tails.
Well anyway, we pulled into the Petsmart parking lot, I parked the car and whipped out the glue, popped a drop on the bow and stuck it on the itsy bitsy little rubber band holding up Chizzie's tiny little pony tail. Guys, it worked great, you should have seen her, she was sytlin'. Anyway when we got home I decided to take the bow/band out of Chizzies hair and guess what...... three hours later...... I had managed to completely destroy the bow and tease out the rest of the glue. The major factors here that I didn't consider were: 1) the difference in hair texture 2) working with a very sweet patient gentle little mare as opposed to working with 2 lbs. of terrible terrier terror.
Do not try this at home..... it is not a good idea. |
