NO-TAPE Silicon Bonding Adhesive
|
 |
Congratulations!
You've taken the first step in offering your customers a valuable
service. Now you can perform the same procedures that large hair replacement
salons offer. A medically safe, contact, liquid adhesive. Hypo-allergenic.
Typically holds for 4-6 weeks. |
 |
THE TOPSOL BONDING KIT
has been designed with you the professional in mind. The KIT offers a simple
and effective way to bond hair units, for up to month. Hypo-allergenic, waterproof,
high quality tape does not separate when removed. NO-TAPE can be applied
directly to the scalp for partial, perimeter or full head bonding. |
PROCEDURES
|
Remove of the Hair Unit
|
STEP 1: |
TOPSOL
adhesive solvent will help remove the hair unit quickly and efficiently.
Apply it to a cotton swab, and lifting the sides of the unit, dab it onto
the adhesive. Start with the forehead first, and work around the head. CAUTION:
Keep the adhesive solvent away from eyes. In case of contact flush eyes with
water. As the adhesive loosens, gently peel the sides of the unit up, and
reapply the solvent as needed, to ease the hair unit off. Trim any excess
adhesive from the hair, once the unit has been removed.
With
any hair care procedure you must check the scalp thoroughly. Any unhealthy
scalp condition like irritated, infected, or abraded skin, should be noted.
Do not attempt the bonding procedure, if one or more of these conditions
exist.

Preparation of Scalp and Hair Unit
|
STEP 2:
 |
In
the majority of cases the scalp will have a pre-cut bonding track. If so,
prepare the track by cutting the regrowth to approximately 1/8th inch high.
If no track exists, move on to the next step.
|
STEP 3: |
Remove
excess tape on the hair unit, by spraying it with solvent, and peeling it
off. Wipe away any remaining residues or oils. AVOID CONDITIONERS, which
can leave oils, and affect adhesive strength. Dry the scalp and hair unit
completely.
|
STEP 4:
 |
Position
the hair unit on the head. When you reattach, you'll need to know exactly
how and where to place the unit. With a water soluble marker like an eyebrow
pencil, lightly outline the outer edge of the unit, onto the customers hairline
and forehead. After marking, remove the hair unit. |
STEP 5:
 |
Apply TOPSOL NO-Tape to the hair in the bonding track, from one temple to the other. Do not include the forehead.
Spread the NO-Tape using the enclosed spatula into a thin band, approximately
1/2" wide. Be careful not to get the NO-tape in the surrounding hair. Allow
the NO-Tape to dry. |
STEP 6:
 |
While
the NO-Tape adhesive is drying on your customer, begin work on the hair unit.
Peel off the backing of the TOPSTICK double sided strips. Starting at one
temple, place the strips all the way around to the other temple, overlapping
them as you go. At this time, leave the forehead section of the hair unit
alone. Use curved "Custom Cut" strips where needed and trim the strips if
necessary, to fit. If you desire a more aggressive hold, substitute the roll
of TOPSOL opaque tape for the TOPSTICK stripes.
|
STEP 7: |
Apply
TOPSOL NO-Tape to the TOPSTICK strips. Start with one temple on the unit
and work around to the other, using the spatula to spread the NO-Tape. Do
not apply TOPSOL NO-Tape to the front of the hair unit. Allow 3-5 minutes
for the NO-Tape to dry.

Attachment
|
STEP 8:
 |
Peel
the backing from a TOPSTICK Custom Cut "Fronts" and press in onto the front
of the unit, as illustrated. Do not add TOPSOL No-Tape to the double sided
frontal tape. The double sided TOPSTICK tape is all that's needed, to secure
the hair unit to the forehead. Additional front strips are included, for
periodic changing. |
STEP 9:
 |
Place
the front of the hair unit on the head, slightly behind the position line
made in STEP 4. Starting from the front portion, work the hair unit from
side to side, as you apply pressure from front to back. MAKE SURE ALL MARKINGS
MATCH, and are covered by unit. PRESS FIRMLY on all outer edgers, for a complete
bond. |
STEP 10: |
Style
the hair like you would normally. Remind your customer not to shampoo for
24 hours. Ask them not to use conditioners, which can affect the length of
bonding.
