She is clinging to others.
Gorilla Glue girl Tessica Brown is donating more than $ 20,000 that was raised for her online to a charity started by the plastic surgeon who finally released her locks, according to a report.
The 40-year-old woman from Louisiana – whose hair was stuck together for a month after she used the superglue as a substitute for hair spray – raised nearly $ 24,000 on GoFundMe after her situation got worse.
Now that her superglue ordeal is over, Brown is donating most of the money raised through more than 1,400 donations to a charity started by Beverly Hills surgeon Dr. Michael Obeng, who treated her for free, said the TMZ.
She plans to keep about $ 1,000 to cover her bills for an unsuccessful emergency room visit – as well as part of her flight to California – and donate the rest to Restore, Obeng’s foundation that helps people with reconstructive surgery. needy abroad, TMZ said.
Brown wants to pay upfront for others to have the much needed surgery they would not otherwise be able to afford.
She no longer needs the money either – and made a small fortune selling goods related to her ordeal with extra-strong glue, TMZ said.
Brown went viral when she revealed on TikTok how her hair had been solid for a month after she used the extra-strong superglue after running out of her usual hair product.
“Bad, bad, bad idea, ”she said in the original clip, seen more than 35 million times until Sunday.
