Frontal ponytails with curly hair typically last 2-4 weeks before a retouch or removal is needed. However, the longevity of this style varies for each person. If you live an active lifestyle where you sweat a lot or you are simply someone who perspires very often around the forehead then your frontal ponytail may not last long. This is because any excess moisture around the hairline will loosen the glue used to hold down the lace front and cause the hair to come off or start to look frizzy.

However, you can curb this tendency for damage by using the proper techniques when installing and taking down your frontal ponytails. When removing the frontal ponytail, spray an adhesive removing solvent spray around the edges of the hairline, then apply a small amount of rubbing alcohol. This will loosen any glue residue and allow you to easily remove the lace front without causing any tension to your real hair. You can apply a bit of water and conditioner to clean off any excess residue that may be stuck on the edges after removing the weave.

Do Frontal Ponytails With Curly Hair Have To Be Glued?

Another technique used to install frontal ponytails with curly is to use tape to hold down the added hair. These tapes often come in pre-cut strips and they are not as strong and damaging as using glue
