This week, a story went viral about Tessica Brown, a Louisiana
woman who was hospitalized after using Gorilla Glue in her hair.
Her locks were stuck solid for a month, and she eventually got
the adhesive removed by a Beverly Hills plastic surgeon,
sparking a flurry of memes about the ordeal.

A Louisiana man, Len Martin, 37, also ended up in the ER when he
applied the glue to his lips in an attempt to prove that Brown
was “lying” about the seriousness of the sticky stuff.

But what is Gorilla Glue, why is it so sticky — and is there any
conceivable reason to use it as hair gel? We spoke to an expert
about it.

What is Gorilla Glue?
The industrial-strength adhesive was first “discovered” by Mark
Singer in Indonesia, where it was used on hardwood furniture,
according to the company’s website. It later proved to be
“incredibly versatile.”

“It’s much stronger than other glues,” said Gudrun Schmidt,
chemistry professor at Purdue, who specializes in the science of
adhesives. “It is supposed to be far superior to other glues —
on furniture or anything else that’s especially hard to glue.”

The glue reportedly works on stone, foam, metal, ceramic, glass
and other materials. It dries clear in 10 to 45 seconds.

What is Gorilla Glue made of?
The active ingredient is polyurethane, a form of plastic that
can be made rigid or flexible, and is also found in shoes and
foam bedding.

The glue is composed of the non-water soluble compound
Diphenylmethane diisocyanate and isomers, polyatomic ions with
identical molecular formulas but different arrangements of
atoms, according to a Gorilla Glue UK Safety Data Sheet
published in 2010.

Why is Gorilla Glue so sticky?
The water-activated polyurethane formula expands when it dries
on an object — forming an incredibly strong bond to just about
anything, according to the Cincinnati, Ohio-based firm.

Is there any reason to use it on hair?
In short — no! Brown may have used the extra-strength glue as a
substitute for gel because it dries clear and firm. But doing so
is a health hazard — it’s harmful if inhaled, irritating to the
eyes, and skin, experts have said.

Chemically, Gorilla Glue is not made up of ingredients that make
it more hair-friendly than Elmers or any other brand of super
glue, Schmidt said.

Before becoming a professor, “I was actually a hair stylist for
years, and I would never think to use it in hair,” Schmidt said.

She acknowledged that she’s white, and has a different texture
of hair than Brown, who is black “But I don’t think I’d use it
on my head,” she said.

But a Texas hairdresser on Friday admitted he’s been using
Gorilla Glue on clients for years to secure hair extensions.

” I’ve been using Gorilla Glue on people’s hair for years, but
this is the only way that you should ever use it — at the end of
a sew-in,” Eric Vaughn said as he demonstrated the gluey ‘do in
a TikTok video.
