How to Apply and Remove Melting Spray for a Flawless Wig Install

Ready to achieve that seamless, undetectable wig melt? Cabell's Melting Spray is here to give you that flawless, undetectable melt you’ve been dreaming of. Follow this step-by-step guide to apply and remove it like a pro, ensuring your wig stays slayed all day long.

 

Step 1: Prep Your Canvas

Before applying the melting spray, make sure your skin is clean, dry, and oil-free. Start by cleansing your hairline with an alcohol pad—this step ensures the spray adheres perfectly, giving you a secure hold that lasts.

Step 2: Apply the Melting Spray

Since Cabell’s Melting Spray has a liquid consistency, you’ll want to apply it up close for the best results. You have two options:

  • Direct Application: Hold the bottle close to your hairline and carefully apply a thin layer where your lace will sit.
  • Finger Application: Alternatively, you can pour a small amount of the spray onto your fingertip and then dab it along your hairline. This method gives you precise control, especially around tricky areas.

Step 3: Layer for Extra Hold

For an extra secure hold, feel free to layer the spray. After the first layer becomes tacky, apply a second coat. This double layer technique is perfect for those who want their wig to stay in place through anything.

Step 4: Lay Down the Lace

Once you’ve applied the spray, carefully place your lace on top of the tacky area. Use a comb or your fingers to gently press down, ensuring the lace sticks firmly to your hairline.

Step 5: Tie and Set

For that ultimate, melt-into-your-skin finish, tie a silk band around your hairline. Let it sit for at least 10 minutes, but for the best results, leave it on for 30 minutes. This step helps the lace blend seamlessly with your skin, giving you that perfect, undetectable finish.

Step 6: Style and Slay

Once the silk band has done its job, remove it and style your wig as desired. Your lace is now flawlessly melted, ready to slay all day.

How to Remove the Melting Spray with Ease

When it’s time to take off your wig, you’ll want to do it gently to protect both your skin and the lace.

Step 1: Soften the Adhesive

Start by generously applying water or wig adhesive remover along the edges of your lace. Let it sit for a few minutes to break down the melting spray.

Step 2: Lift Carefully

Once the adhesive has softened, gently lift the lace from one corner. If you feel resistance, apply a bit more remover and give it more time to loosen. Patience is key!

Step 3: Clean Up Residue

After removing the wig, use rubbing alcohol or a dedicated adhesive remover on a cotton pad to clean any residue from your skin and lace. This ensures your wig is ready for its next flawless application.

Final Thoughts

Applying and removing Cabell's Melting Spray is a breeze when you know how to do it right. With the right prep, application, and removal techniques, you’ll enjoy a flawless, natural-looking wig melt every time.
