14 Strong-Hold Hair Products to Use Instead of Gorilla
Glue
If you know, you know. If you don't, let us explain...
One of the most curious news pieces to make headlines today was
the story of a woman named Tessica Brown who purposely doused her
hair with Gorilla Glue to lock her hairstyle into place after
running out of her go-to Got2B Glued Blasting Freeze
Spray. Unsurprisingly, the industrial-strength formula worked
wonders on keeping her hairstyle intact—but also resulted
in a trip to the hospital when the glue remained bonded to her hair
weeks later.
In a statement released from the Gorilla Glue Company, a
representative stated: “This product is not indicated for use in or
on hair as it is considered permanent.” Nevertheless, the American
brand says it’s “very sorry to hear about the unfortunate
incident.”
Ahead, peruse GRAZIA’s curated edit of strong-hold
hair products that will lock your hair into place from day to night—the Gorilla Glue of
hair care products, if you will. Keep scrolling for a look at our
favorite formulas of hairspray, gel, and more.
