Tessica Brown’s situation went viral in early February, after she revealed that her hair had been stuck in the same style for a month since she replaced her usual Got2b Glued spray with industrial strength glue when she finished.
“My hair doesn’t move. Did you hear what I’m saying? It doesn’t move,” she said in the original video posted on TikTok.
In another video, she was seen passing shampoo, which failed to penetrate her rock-hard hair.
CNN contacted Brown for comment.
According to the Gorilla Glue website, the glue – which is 100% waterproof and used to fix bathroom tiles, wooden floors and decks – can be removed with acetone or isopropylalcol.
When the company heard about Brown’s dilemma, he contacted her via Twitter.
“Hi, we’re sorry to hear about your experience! We do not recommend using our products on the hair because they are considered permanent ”, said the message. “You can try to soak the affected area in warm, soapy water or apply isopropyl alcohol to the area.”
On Saturday, Brown, known on Instagram as @im_d_ollady, accessed the photo-sharing app to update her followers. She posted a series of images of herself interning at St. Bernard Parish Hospital in Chalmette, Louisiana, in an effort to remove the product.
“This is really a long process,” she captioned a photo of some acetone and sterile water.
