dot the glue along the top line of your bald cap just a little bit , do not go overboard with it or it will come out wrong. continue doing this around the whole head three to five times, it has to be dry and clear, if it's white it will not work.spread the glue in , not to far ,also continue this around your whole head.grab one section and place it above the glue , this is very important

Put a darker shade of makeup from your skin color on the parts that look uncolored, not too much or it will not look good.

Spray

Put got2b spray on your finger and tap the lace with it .

Band

you will now put the band on because if not it will lift the wig up . wait 30 minutes , then you can style the wig at this time. wait 30 minutes and then you can take it off and enjoy.
