'Gorilla Glue Girl' works to free her hair from mishap
It seemed like an easy substitution. After all, both products had the word “spray” on the bottle. One, though, was hair spray – and TikTok maven Tessica Brown was fresh out of her go-to, Got2b Glued Freeze Spray.
What harm could it do, she thought, to spritz a bit of Gorilla Glue Spray Adhesive onto her head to tamp down her hair for her signature smooth look, out of which a sleek ponytail flowed. But 15 hair washes, tea tree oil and coconut oil treatments were to no avail. Brown was stuck.
“My hair has been like this for about a month now,” said Brown, who posts on TikTok and Instagram under @im_d_ollady, in a video last Thursday. “It’s not by choice. No, it’s not by choice.”
She went on to explain how, having run out of her usual product, she thought she could simply substitute. But Gorilla Glue is a super adhesive, whose products carry labels such as “waterproof patch and seal” and “permanent adhesive dots.” It proved to be a bit more than Brown bargained for. “Bad, bad, bad idea,” she said in videos she posted on several platforms.
Her posts on Twitter, Instagram and TikTok, doubling as PSAs and calls for help, have gone viral, drawing more than a million views and tens of thousands of comments, according to WBRZ-TV. The company recommends acetone, the main ingredient in nail polish remover, as Teen Vogue noted.
Even the makers of Gorilla Glue weighed in, noting that if Brown’s hair had been like that for a month, the roots might be fractured, the company told Beauty IRL. Not what you want to hear. On Saturday, Brown posted a photo of the outside of a hospital and then one from inside, of herself being seen by a medical technician. Then on Sunday, a photo of sterile saline next to a pile of nail-polish-remover pads, and the caption, “This is really about to be a long process,” followed by four prayer emojis.
She has promised to furnish updates on her YouTube channel, and has posted one already of her sister working on her head. Gorilla Glue told Beauty IRL they would check in on Brown, as well. “We do not recommend using our products in or on hair as they are considered permanent. If someone does use this on their hair, they can try soaking the affected area in warm, soapy water or apply rubbing alcohol to the affected area,” the company said in a statement to Beauty IRL. “If her hair has truly been glued down to her scalp and immobile for a month with that many aggressive attempts to wash it out, it is possible her hair is fractured at the root but we certainly hope for the best.
"Her marketing team reached out to us", and we have offered to speak with her to share these suggestions as well as checked in on her well-being. Safety is our top priority.”
