How to Do Hair Weaving With Glue for Black Women

Hair wefts can be straight, curly, long or short.

Using bonded glue to do hair weaving for black women is one way to create a quick new look that does not take hours at a beauty salon. Weaving while using bonded glue allows you to place longer wefts of hair onto your head, and if you put the weave on a wig cap you will not cause damage to your real hair. However, the wig cap is not necessary because you can glue the hair directly to the scalp. This method just requires more care when removing the wefts.

Things You'll Need

• Bobby pins
• Wig cap (optional)
• Weaved hair wefts
• Hair comb

Instructions

1. Part the hair about 2 inches up from the neck. Leave the bottom section down and use bobby pins to pin the rest of the hair out of the way. If you wish to protect your scalp, apply a wig cap so the bottom of the wig cap is on the same part line, about 2 inches up from the neck.

2. Measure the width of your natural hairline using the part in your hair that you created in Step 1 as a guide. Measure from the right side of your head to the left side.

3. Cut a length of hair off the the hair extension weft that is the same length as the measurement that you just took in Step 2.

4. Apply bonding glue along the entire upper edge of the inside of the hair extension weft you just cut. The top edge will be on the inside of the weft and made out of a fabric-like material that matches the color of the hair.

5. Glue the hair extension onto the scalp directly on the part line created in Step 1.

6. Apply bonding glue to the remaining hair extensions and continue to place them on the scalp or wig cap every inch or so until the wig cap can no longer be seen or you have covered your entire scalp with the wefts.
